Anyhow, Liam has been sick for a very long time. Just when I thought he was getting better, he relapsed into even worse conditions. Liam's seen the doctor more than his grandparents. I pray and pray for a full recovery to come soon.
On a brighter note, allow me to recap some of the bonding moments and the milestones he's reached.
1. So Liam has been the happiest boy ever, but before he sleeps, he throws a fit like no other. I then have to hold him in a cradle position for the most part and stride across the living room providing him with constant motion. The moment I lay him down on his crib is the most heart racing moment of my day, for fear that he would wake up, and I would have to do this routine one yet another time. And trust me, it doesn't always stop there. I think I did it up to literally eight freakin times. Lord have mercy.
2. But when he does sleep for the night, he sleeps damn well. Good baby. Gives me about eight hours to sleep each night. Now I better start taking advance and sleep earlier.
3. He brings his hands together and fidgets with his hand loosely clasped. The cutest thing ever.
4. He chuckles. This is absolutely the cutest thing ever. My hubs, sister, and I become circus clowns to hear one chuckle. So worth it.
5. He squeals. In a high pitched voice. The next Mariah Carrey we call him. Hurts our ears but research indicates he has found his voice and is only experimenting.
6. Liam loves to grab a hold of his bottle. Though he can't hold it upright and feed himself, he places his hands on the bottle so appropriately. Did I mention he is only on his fourth month now.
7. On Baby Bjorns babysitter, he can rock like no other.
8. Every time I say "I love you" he shyly smiles and looks down and away. Melts my heart.
9. He likes to coo every morning the moment he wakes up. Tells me how fun his dream was haha.
10. He loves stretching his arms and legs with his mama. He opens his mout every time I stretch him, like there a open switch or something.
Anyhow, I'm in love. Everyone should have a baby. Teaches you what selfless love is and forces you to grow up and mature. At least, Liam did for me.
