Baby boy

Baby boy insisted on using me as a pillow last night. I think it had something to do with him not taking a nap in the afternoon. We had to forego the at-home-in-bed nap for an on-the-go-on-mommy's-back snooze. I'm pretty rigid with his routines because then it makes life easier for all but this was a special occasion. The sun was out and the beach was calling. We're beach lovers. The smell of the ocean just relaxes me, a time well spent indeed and now I'm happily paying for it with sore shoulder. He's such a trooper. And I have a lot to thank him for. At 10 months he's taught me to be a better me. Lessons from baby boy: 1) there's great value in an afternoon nap, for mommy and baby 2) always make time for play 3) procrastination leads to anxiety...he's helped me become a person who gets things done. I love my baby boy
