Busy baby boy

Ah yes! How happy am I to announce that today was a much better day than yesterday? Very! It's baby boy's 1st birthday in 2wks and I'm looking for ways to make it special. Something small and memorable. He's growing up super fast. And I know this is something you'd expect to hear from every mother. But he really is. And we've started to notice a new fascination with tidying up. He likes to put toys and shoes away which sounds great except he places them either in the bin or the hamper. He's a hard working little guy. Today we had a park day to make up for the missed play date yesterday. Amidst the chaos of the day I had to postpone his first play date. For some reason I'd planned it during his nap time, can you say mother of the week! And Robdawg woke up feeling real sick. Let's fast forward to a healthier day shall we. Baby boy loves the swing a bit too much. Some may call me slightly overbearing but the park is my worst nightmare when you consider the possible germs. It takes every part of me to not disinfect everything he touches. I'm still learning to relax and enjoy the moment. It's often easier said than done yet I believe it's possible.
