Oh, boy. All of the tropes about being a second child are totally true. There have been a million things we did during Finn’s first year of life that we failed to do for Elias (monthly photos, 365 days of DSLR pictures, etc.). We had the best intentions. But, you know: #secondchild.
Yet, today, Elias–our sweet, hungry, pudgy, happy-go-lucky baby–turns one, and I couldn’t let that go by without making him a video of his first year. After all, documenting our lives is my love language.
I’ll admit: after having Finn, I wasn’t sure my heart could love another baby boy quite as much, but I was so, so wrong.
Elias: I hope one day you’ll watch this video and know how very, very, very much you are loved. Happy birthday, my sweet baby boy. Thank you for being ours.
Oh my goodness! Got a serious case of the onions going on here.
That was an absolute joy to watch – thank you so much for creating and sharing that.
Happy Birthday, Elias!
