We all have a favorite time of the day when Cliff and I tuck away Aaron in bed. Cliff gives him a bath, then I put a night time diaper on Aaron, and then we let him goof around. He climbs on Cliff, gives us kisses, hides under the blankets, makes up stuff (like, "Papa is a bulldozer", "Mama is a dog, Papa is a dog, I am a puppy...") But what he started doing recently just melts our hearts: he lies down between two of us, hugs our necks, brings us together to him and says: "We're a family. We're all together." Without being prompted...And I just don't want to leave his bedroom, I don't want him to go to bed, I want the moment to stop...Then I remember that I always want to stop the moment and yet it always gets better and better, so let the time flow and we will look forward to the new amazing moments with this little guy.
Some of you might still remember how much attached to me Aaron was about a year ago. I forgot to mention that his separation anxiety got way better as he developed his trust that allows him to let me go knowing that I will come back. And then he's always happy to see me. If only I had known a year ago all I know about him now:) I would have saved a lot of worries for myself.
As far as the baby Junior, he/she started kicking about a week ago, and the kicks get stronger and stronger each day. I actually can feel the baby move around there. The baby started kicking a week earlier than Aaron did. I still get tired and sick at times but not too bad.
