On one of my particularly hard days last week, I told Brian that I was not enjoying being a mom like I thought I would. We all have these romanticized notions in our head of how something is going to turn out and it is disappointing when it is not that way.
Well, McCoy must have heard me or known that I was feeling this way because he has upped his cuteness by 100%! I am not saying that it is perfect now, but it is so much more fun! He responds when I call his name and he reacts to more things.
*I love reading books with him because he sits so still in my lap and "listens" as I make different voices and looks at the pictures.
*I make his stuffed animals talk to him in different accents and voices and he laughs like crazy!
*He has started imitating my facial expressions. When he laughs, he squints his eyes, which Brian says that I do. It is the CUTEST thing ever!
*He holds up his arms to be held when I come close to him.
*He laughs at me while he eats his food.
*He rubs my face when I feed him his bottles in the middle of the night.
*He snuggles close to me when he is done eating his bottle and goes right back to sleep.
I am not the perfect mother by any stretch of the imagination, but I am loving the journey and the woman that it is making me!
