Butterfly wakes up cheerfully and is my early riser. She wanders upstairs with a smile and will cuddle for a quick minute before she's ready to play. Ladybug is the opposite. She wakes up slowly, needing time to cuddle in her blankets and adjust into the world of wakefulness. With an armful of blankets, she will climb into my lap and stay there until she's fully awake and something can distract her away from me (usually her sister begging her to play).
When AngelBaby wakes up, she wakes up peacefully. She plays with her
binky and runs her hands along the lace edge of her crib bumpers (made
by Grammy, so cute!). I watch her on our baby video monitor, relishing in just how sweet this kid is. Eventually she starts to call for me, a sweet
happy coo. I sneak into her room and she rewards me with a huge smile.
Even though the smile is hidden behind her binky, I can see her round
cheeks lift up into happy puffy roundness and her eyes light up as if I
just gave her the world. I slip my hands under her, lift her up and
cuddle her to my chest. I can guide her chubby arms around my neck and
she immediately latches on, squeezing with all her baby might. She
buries her face into my cheek and neck and nuzzles me for a sweet
cuddle. Then she leans back, looks at me again with those happy eyes
and then nuzzles into the opposite cheek for another snuggle. Every
once in a while, I even get a third cuddle hug from her before she pulls
back, drops the binky and begins to chatter and coo, asking for her
breakfast.
good morning.
