This was taken a few weeks back. Salem decided that Tavin needed a princess crown too!
I admit it. I'm crazy about babies. I love babies. I can't get enough of them! Seriously, I am in love. Again.
Unlike my firstborn, I am not anxious for him to reach another milestone or learn a new trick. At least not yet. A new trick means he's a month older and a day closer to "growing up." Instead, I am relishing the moment. I am soaking in these baby days that are fleeing before my eyes. Did I mention that I
love babies?
So, if you're wondering why my answering machine is taking more of your calls, my house isn't as clean and dishes stay in the sink a day longer.....it's because I am enjoying my baby boy. My little man won't be this tiny forever and he won't give me those delicious open-mouth kisses forever, either. I'm soaking it up while I can.

Is it sad that I do not want even my first born to reach the milestones?? I am sad that he is sleeping all night and doesn't even want to be rocked to sleep.....am I crazy!?
Love that SWEET little Tavin!!!!!
Oh yes. This is what I think EVERY DAY. I cry when he reaches new milestones--squirming intsead of cuddling. THIS IS KILLING ME. I LOVE babies too. It is kids that I don't do so well with (did I just say that?) Well, it is true. Babies are the best things in the entire world. And they turn into little brats WAY TOO FAST. Dammit. I have to go cry some more into my baby's hair.
It is especially different when you know that the current baby is your last. And it isn't because I can't handle another baby. I can't handle another kid.
Tavin is PRECIOUS. I want to blow raspberries on his little cheeks!
I know exactly where you're coming from. It all happens way too fast. I can't believe mine are 5, almost 4, and almost 5 months!... where does the time go? The fact that Kallisa is 95th percentile for weight & height doesn't help with the whole growing-up-way-too-fast thing. The chores can wait, cherish that sweet little guy to your heart's content!
I love this quote: "It will be gone before you know it. The fingerprints on the wall appear higher and higher.
Then suddenly they disappear."
