One of my favorite parts of each day is putting Noah to bed. As the third child, he gets thrown in the middle of the big tub with his sisters, no baby tub or even kitchen sink baths for him. Not since he was a couple weeks old. But he loves it. He splashes and laughs with them. Then we sit on the couch, all five of us together, or roll around on the floor to get the sillies out. And when he's ready to call it a night, we go to my room. Just the two of us. We nurse on my bed and he usually falls right asleep. I lay there a bit after he goes to sleep as it's one of the very rare moments I get to enjoy with just my littlest.
Tonight, it was hot and he had extra wiggles. It took half an hour just to settle him down, but I really didn't mind. He patted my face and rolled around in the bed and made baby sounds.
It was one of those moments I want to bottle up and save for another day. And hopefully, in all those words, I hope I did just that.
I just love this picture of you and Noah!
ReplyDeletebest pic in the world! years from now will continue to make you smile. I suggest printing and framing and put away in a drawer to take out when he is older and you are pulling your hair out when he is going through the teen years!
