Honestly, I don't think I can think of anything that feels more magical to me than those first few days with my new baby. I felt it with Ethan, despite feeling unwell and I've felt it again with Logan. It's a sort of magic that you can't put into words, it's a feeling that's overwhelming in the very best way possible. It's a feeling that on more than one occasion has brought tears to my eyes seemingly out of nowhere, they're happy tears - the absolute happiest. My heart has felt more full than I ever imagined it could. I'm so in love and I'm so happy, perhaps the happiest I have ever been. I look over at my two boys with my Husband and I almost feel like I should be thanking someone, I'm so eternally grateful for them. I want to bottle this feeling, I want to feel it over and over again.
Life feels pretty perfect, but it doesn't mean that it's without it's challenges. Life with a toddler presents random meltdowns and the normal frustrations that you expect from a two year old. Life with a newborn presents sleepless nights (and apparently the requirement to be okay with being urinated on occasionally). It means always coming last, it means juggling more things than sometimes you're actually physically able to. Parenthood, like most of lifes greatest achievements, is no easy task, but is so utterly rewarding.
Wanting to capture and to bottle the emotion of the very beginning of our lives as a family of four, I made a short montage of a few of the clips that we've taken over the first few days of Logans life, which can be found at the very end of this post. They're just little clips that we've taken for us, little moments that we want to remember forever along with a few photographs. Because as much as I am looking forward to the rest of our lives, I want to be able to feel and to remember those first few days over and over again..
My little man being weighed at birth, he was 9lb 1oz, his brother was 9lb 9oz. I seem to be quite good at growing big babies!
The proudest parents alive. 
My Mum, Logans Nanna, who accidentally ended up being at Logans birth after popping in to see how I was following her hospital appointment. I'm so glad she was there. 
Logan less than an hour old with his Grandad. (My Step-Dad).
A tiny hand and tinier yet fingernails.
Newborn toes!
Ethan giving his baby brother his gift - Bunny.
Ethan's taken so well to having a brother, he continually makes me such a proud Mummy.
Daddy feeling the effects of life with a toddler and a newborn!
My two boys with their Great-Grandad (Adams Grandad).
Logan using his pram for the first time and looking so tiny.
Our first family outing, a trip to our local park on day three of Logans life. 
Wrapped up snug after his first bath.
Logan enjoying lots of newborn sleep - I think he looks so much like his Daddy here. 
Ethan checking to make sure that there's nothing hiding up inside of Logans nose (as big brothers do!),
Logan with his Grandma.
Our first summer (veggie) BBQ at the in-laws. Logan having cuddles with his Grandpop.
My whole world. I love these three so much.
The very first time that Ethan held his new baby brother.
My two boys and me - I honestly couldn't feel any prouder.
