Things I love about Dean

1. I love when he lays his head on my chest and lets me cuddle him however I usually have to be standing up for him to do this because sitting down he has to look side to side checking things out which is cute too.
2. When I hold him in a cradle position and he licks my arm it tickles and is so adorable.
3. I love when he gets out of the bath and I put him on the floor on a blanket by the fire place and he gets his legs and arms moving so fast. I wish I could say he is doing this because he is excited for his upcoming massage but he still flexes his muscles when I lotion him down.
4. When I make silly faces at him and it makes him smile.
5. I love when he is really tired but trying to fight nap time and his eyes flutter open and closed and his eyes role up in his head.
6. I love the cute sighs and noises he makes when he is gulping down his bottle.
7. I really like that he can self sooth and go to sleep at night all by himself in his crib.
8. Along with the last one I love when he gets all of his fingers in his mouth and sucks on them. It makes me laugh and reminds me of grade school and trying to fit your whole fist in your mouth.
9. I love seeing Jeff hold Dean on his lap after work and watching them watch TV together.
10. I love running my fingers through his hair and watching him totally melt in my arms.

I'm sure there are many more things I love about Dean but I just wanted to share a few!

Well what can I say I just love showing off what a cute little baby we have. I know there has been a bit of a scare about the baby slings being dangerous but if you put your precious baby in the sling right then it works really well and both baby and mommy are happy. I get a lot done around the house with Dean in this sling or front pack. However Dean is a bit dramatic at first and will grunt a for a minute and it is quite funny.
Also bath time another favorite he just loves it and this wash pod is nice cause he fits in it pretty snug and I don't put much water therefore he can sit and be warm and play for a little bit. Then he gets rinsed off with the facet sprayer, which gets him ready for showering mmm the best of both a bath and a shower every morning. Oh the hard life of a baby!
Dean cuddling up to Grandma Perron oh how sweet! He just loved having his Grandparents come watch him while his parents were in Seattle having lasik eye surgery. Wow that is the coolest thing I was seriously so blind and now I can see. I love being able to just wake and not feel for my glasses, and getting up in the middle of the night with Dean is much faster. Thanks to my sweetie no more glasses or contacts.
It has been so fun watching Dean grow up and change everyday. He is just so cute and easy to love. He is so much more wiggly and making fun high pitch noises and best of all smiling more!
