that littlest little person falling asleep on me

he fell asleep on me!

something he might have done…maybe…when he was a very tiny, very sad, very colicky little baby…

maybe

but my memory doesn’t think so…

and then he stayed asleep while i lugged him into our room…and snuggled down with him into that cozy bed his daddy made for me

and i got to listen to his heavy breaths…and feel his little chest rise and fall against mine…and watch gramma’s tree dance and sway outside of our window as the blustery wind swept through her…

and kiss his sweaty little sleepy head…

and thank Him from the very farthest bottom-most-tip of my heart for that never-before and…maybe…never-again moment with him…

dear little mister,

it’s alright

sometimes little boys just need to jump in the tub…

and their highchairs just need to hop in the shower

‘cause getting that food to sit tight on that spoon…and then stay put there ‘til it’s safe inside your mouth…takes some time…and lots of practice!

but you’ll get the hang of it!

i promise!

very sincerely,
me (your grateful-for-smocks-and-tubs-and-showers-and-towels mama)

dear mis(ter)chief,

so it’s lookin’ like…as of last weekend…it’s officially begun…

you livin’ most of your timeoutside!

and this is your typical outside attire…

4-27-13

a diaper…and that most happiest smile!

but…this…is you just still hardly gettin’ started!

typically…when we drag you back inside at the end of your day…that diaper’s been accessorized with any-and-always-whatever’s-available water…some well-placed bumps, scrapes and bruises…a smattering of grass just here and there…and a liberally applied all-over layer of mud!

and…sometimes…tears instead of that smile!

but…this…is you just pickin’ right back up where you left off at the end of last summer…

outside!

so, here’s to the next four months (or so), little mister mischief…

when all i expect to hear out of you is

“ ‘side?!? ”

very sincerely,
me (your lovin’-that-hannah-styled-happy-hairs-do mama)

::  it helps…when you’re not lovin’ correcting all that math…to look up and see the baby trying to heave himself into the clothes dryer!

him all high centered on the rim of the door…with his chubba legs just pumping up and down!

ahhh…now back to my math
