Cozy baby
Yesterday I bundled Finn up and took him and a very grateful Santos out for a neighborhood stroll. It has warmed up considerably, so all parties (mama included) were very happy for the stroll time.
Finn is going through a very interesting and sweet phase right now. He wants to be held, cuddled and to coo at me like a little latin lover all day long. This is the same guy who was Mr. Independent just a week ago--who would good-naturedly wave "bah-ba" to me in the morning whilst shoveling bananas in his mouth. I can't even put him in his high chair without him pitching a fit and wanting to be held. (And I think I've made it clear how the kid feels about food.) I kind of wish I wasn't so awesome because it's hard to get anything done.
But I must admit, baby snuggles are just about the best thing ever. At night, he snuggles his little fuzzy head under my chin, burrows his hands under my armpits, and baby talks to me while I rock him to sleep. Sometimes he'll doze off and then wake up with a start, looking to make sure I'm still there. When he sees I am, he smiles, settles back in and dozes off for the evening.
