- The way he covers his eyes when he’s nursing.
- The way he wraps himself around the bumper and buries his face in it like a body pillow.
- The way he rolls all over the living room floor until he’s under a chair or the coffee table… guess he’ll be liking camping!
- The way he looks up at me with his big, dark eyes.
- The way he smiles and squints when I come to get him out of bed.
- The way he kicks off his socks every single time I put them on.
- When he sneezes and toots at the same time… a true boy!
- That he loves for me to hold him when he’s teething.
- The way he arches his back and head when he’s on the floor to see the TV (though I’m always trying to divert him!)
- The way he kicks so hard in the bathtub that he surprises himself.
- The way he kicks on the floor with a very serious face as if he’s an olympic athlete.
- His adorable cry.
- His huge toothless grin.
- That he looks for me in a crowded room.
- That he can chug an 8-oz bottle in 2 minutes but it still takes him 15 min to nurse as he takes his sweet time to finish (he’s savoring, I think).
Man, it is beyond wonderful being mommy to this little boy. I often find myself in tears, unable to believe that God has given me this gift. Thank you, Lord.
