Mommas of little boys: come in, please!
I know we have a bunch of mommas with little boys around here, so I thought I'd ask you this question: What do you love about being a mommy to a little boy?
The reason I ask is, we just found out that we're having a little boy and we're so excited. I personally just have absolutely ZERO experience with little boys, and I'd love to hear your wisdom and love for team blue!

Re: Mommas of little boys: come in, please!
They're so much fun and love to explore (which is not good for mommy's heart). I love watching them with their dad, he lets them do way more than I do
I don't have to worry about them ruining a cutesy, frilly, dress.
I've always got a lunch date
I love having a little boy. He's always trying to mimic his daddy, which often means he tries to kiss me with his mouth open... I think boys are a little less fragile than girls, I love to tickle him and chase him around. We have so much fun together. DS is a miniature version of MH, and I love that.
Things like this:

Great thread!
I always loved the thought of having a boy -- but now that it's a reality, I do find myself getting nervous about it once in a while because of my lack of experience. But the answers here so far are comforting
I have one of each and I have to say - they're different in many ways, yet similar in many others.
With my DS - we now know any restaurant that has a buffet or really fast service (he hates waiting).
He has an incredible imagination and loves to roll play with his hotwheels, or super heros (even if it is to rescue his sister's Barbies in the bath).
My DS also loves to play dress-up and play with toy babies. He loves to push a stroller and take his baby for a walk, or give it medicine (he has an older DD too and these are things she enjoys but he will play this by himself too).
DS loves to be outside and working/kicking a ball/gong fo a walk. When he's inside, he loves to help cook, bake, play board games, and read a book and have a snuggle.
Exactly!!! I have several of these pictures of the boys and Mommy is the camping type so I got them into camping. Daddy hated the idea so without mommy they wouldn't have known what they were missing and Daddy now loves camping too. I have ALL these boys running around and they all love Mommy like she is their princess for sure. PP poster said they are in touch with our feelings and I can't agree more. I will be sick and they just know what mommy needs. My oldest will let the "crew" know mommy needs a little nap and to keep quiet and play in the room. They know when I'm throwing up..lmao, they always yell out "Mom, you ok in there?" They hold your hand and get's jealous when daddy tries!! They are perfect!! I can't imagine what it's going to feel like having a girl. I just know Daddy is waiting patiently for his Lil girl to spoil and yes Daddy already lets the boys get away with a lot more then mommy does!!
Took the words right out of my mouth. : )
I know how you feel - I remember looking down at my little boy bundle when he was born wondering how I was going to be a parent to such a strange breed!
That said, my DS is awesome ... He is as rough and tumble as they come, and is always figuring things out. He loves exploring, "fixing things" and throwing balls. Honestly, toys don't compare to a ball and the backyard. He is a loud, crazy kid whose daddy is his hero.
But at the same time, when he sees me he runs over with his thumb in his mouth for a snuggle. He loves to be "softed" and sung to ... he melts my heart!
