I miss you when you're not in my arms. Isn't that funny? Like, you can be across the room, being held by your dad, and I can see you, and you're looking at me...and still, I miss you.
You're 5 months old. Wow...5 months. It doesn't sound like a long time. And yet...look at you! You're just so...you're growing so quickly. Everyone always says, "It goes by fast!"...but you don't really get just how fast until you're 5 months into it and suddenly your teeny tiny baby is suddenly lifting his head to sit up and thinking about crawling.
You're in bed right now - you're such a good sleeper. Always have been. You're even getting really good at taking naps (you took two 2 hour naps today!). I just checked on you...you're starting to sleep on your side a lot. You still do the 'L' shaped thing with your body...but now it looks less weird because you're on your side. Anyway, after I checked on you, I came out and told your dad I'd be ok if you woke up. He assured me I wouldn't be...but honestly, I would. Now, if it was 3 am and you woke up...weeeeellll, then maybe that would be a little less awesome. But right now, at 10:37 pm, when your dad and I are just settling in to bed to watch a little TV ("Friends" on DVD, if you must know)....right now, if you woke up...well, gosh-darn-it, I'd be just the happiest little mom you ever saw.
I love you, Monkey.
Mom
Post-Edit: Well, lookey there...you DID wake up at 3 am! And you know what?...getting to hold you while you stopped crying, watching you watch me that way you do......yep - happiest little mom EVER.
