Sweetness

Sometimes I look at Porter and I love him so much I feel like my heart is going to explode. 

He’s so freaking hilarious lately.  I want to eat him up.  He is smiling and sort-of-laughing at everything.  He’s gotten out of that fussy stage- I’m thinking it was the formula (I was mixing a diff. kind with his regular) and for about the last week he’s been just a doll.

Things I love….

• When I get up with him at his 1 or 4am feeding and change his diaper he is so smiley and giggly- over what?  Its the middle of the night.  I live for those smiles.  It makes up for all these sleepless nights
• When I feed him on the couch and I’m watching tv and am not paying attention to him.  I’ll look down at him occasionally and he’s studying my face.  And I say "HI!" and his eyes get wide, he acts surprised as if thinking "Oh my she is alive!" 
• The way he nuzzles into my chest to try to get comfortable to go to sleep when he’s overtired. 
• How he drifts off to sleep and smiles and makes hiccup-laughs
• His constant movement- he’s always kicking and wiggling his arms and he’s so alert and curious
• His satisfied groan and gulps after he latches onto his bottle after screaming for food.
• The way he sticks out his bottom lip when he’s fussy
• His girly screeches when you take his bottle away from him to burp in the middle of his feedings
• How it never fails to put him to sleep by laying him on my chest in bed
• His chubby cheeks and his pointy little chin

I just love that little guy.
