Wow seriously? How awful of me. It's been two and a half weeks since I posted my last blog. Which I guess really isn't that big of a deal except for the fact that my little man has yet to have an entry dedicated just to him. In my defense, I was waiting until I had some video stuff of him too, but that's not working out so well. What can I say the kid just isn't a performer like his sisters. Shocker! So instead of a video, we'll go with pictures.
I can't believe my "baby" is going to be five years old in five days. Ouch. It's so neat to watch your kids grow up. To day by day see them learn new things. But man alive, it really kinda sucks at the same time! I'm officially no longer shopping in the toddler section at stores, the training wheels are gone, and i'm getting ready to buy my son his first backpack cause he'll be starting kindergarten in the fall. Noooo! I'm not ready yet!!
Thankfully, he is still my little cuddle bug though. That's one thing he still hasn't grown out of yet. He's been a cuddler from day one. Even at the hospital after he was born. Because it was so crowded that night, they had to move Noah and me to the pediatric wing . . . where there is no nursery. Which means, I had to keep him with me the entire time. And he didn't want anything to do with that stupid plastic box. But as long as he was cuddled in mommies arms he was fine. It made it a little difficult for mommy to sleep, but what else are you gonna do when 7 pounds of wonderful just wants to cuddle?
And to this day, he still has his moments when he just wants to be wrapped up in mommies arms. I might be sitting down watching TV, working at the computer, or busy in the kitchen. And he'll just come up to me and say, "Mommy, I love you. Do you wanna cuddle?" What else can you do when 47 pounds of wonderful wants to cuddle? So I wrap him in my arms, thank God for this moment, and pray that there will never come a day when he's too grown up to say, "Mommy, do you wanna cuddle
