Trek-ing Schemanskis

There is something uniquely special about a baby’s due date.
You talk about it for 9 months… you dream about what it will be like when that day finally comes… you plan for it in every way possible beforehand!
August 4th.

That was Trek’s due date, and as I sit here today on August 4th I can’t help but feel overwhelmingly blessed as I look into the face of my littlest TWO WEEK OLD blessing. It feels like bonus time on planet earth with him!

Trek Adam Schemanski
6.6 oz, 19″ long

Trek’s early arrival didn’t catch us by surprise, as I’d had several signs of preterm labor starting at 32 weeks and made a few trips to the hospital only to be sent home after getting contractions under control.

The blessing in all of the “pre-birth drama” was that Mom and Dad Schemanski were able to change their tickets and made it to Durango in time for the birth…
In fact, Papa is the one who drove me to the hospital after my water broke while Ty raced from work to meet us there!

One hour after arriving at the hospital little Trek was born!

Joy unspeakable and full of glory!

Words fail me when it comes to
trying to express the love and joy that comes instantaneously with each
baby God has blessed us with…
and I’m sure most of you parent-readers know exactly what I’m talking about.

There’s just nothing like holding your newborn for the first time.


20 hours later we were discharged from the hospital and headed to Elli’s swim lessons!

(Can I just say I am massively in love with these two men!)

Life at home = lots of snuggling!

2 Weeks Old

Trek is an absolutely delightful baby. He is full of smiles already and seems to really observe and take in the world around him. He is eating and growing very well (which is bittersweet because we are LOVING his tiny-ness!)

His sisters adore him and take every opportunity to kiss, hold, and well… smother him.

Ty and I are simply over-the-top crazy in love with this precious gift of a son and honestly feel undeservedly blessed by all that God has given us.

Trek’s first two weeks have been absolutely full of adventure and fun ~ but the details of all that will have to wait for the next blog post!
