8/19/08 Tues: Jayden's Treasures

Current Mood: INFATUATED!

Mommy wanted to list a few of the sweet things that makes her fall in love with baby even more every day.

1) The way Jayden stares into your eyes when you hold him. It's like he can read your soul. It's easy to see how content he is and how safe he feels. His eyes were blue when he was born, and have since turned to a brownish green. Grammy thinks they will turn back to blue, we'll see! Mommy wonders what baby thinks about when he gazes so long into everyone's eyes. He's probably thinking "When's the next feeding?" but Mommy would like it think it's a little deeper than that!

2) When Mommy feeds Jayden, Mommy supports the back of his head with her hand. Jayden likes to reach his one hand back to Mommy's hand and wrap his little hand around Mommy's thumb, giving it a little squeeze every so often. The other hand is usually beside his face all open up and to the side as if to say YUM!!!!! ADORABLE!

3) Late at night after Jayden is done feeding he lays in Mommy's arms with eyes closed and ever so quickly shows these little open mouth smiles. It appears that Jayden is going to let out this hardy belly laugh but none ever come. Sometimes though a little giggle escapes his mouth and no matter how tired Mommy is from lack of sleep, it still puts a smile on Mommy's face.

4) It's so cute to see how curious Jayden is. His favorite thing to when we sit on the couch is stare at the ceiling fan, or a picture as if to ponder what or why it exsists. Sometimes he doesn't blink for long periods of time like he's utterly focused!

5) Love how Jayden still curls his little legs up like he's still in the womb. He looks like a little ball and it's just so cute to see.

6) Sometimes when Jayden is staring at someone's face, he looks cross eyed!

7) MOMMY LOVES JAYDEN'S LITTLE LEMUR FEET! They are big and his toes are long. His toes are so long they can grasp and hold onto fingers! And if you tickle them, each toe goes into a different direction for a split second!

8) When Jayden sneezes a couple times in a row, he will then let out this really loud AHHHHHH like a sneeze was coming and quickly left. Of course we try to capture that on tape and never can!

9) When we hold Jayden up against our shoulder to burp him he tries so hard to hold his little head up. What ends up happening is sometimes his little head goes forward and back over and over and he resembles a little woodpecker! Of course in the meantime your shoulder gets soaked, or he turns his head to your neck and he tries to give you a hickey!

10) When Mommy puts Jayden on his Baby Einstien play gym on the table his eyes are always attracted to the verticle blinds that blow in the wind of the open window. They make a clacking noise and the sun shines in on Jayden and he just loves watching them while kicking his little feet!
