DS is turnin me into an emotional mess...
I've never been one of those girls who cries at movies or gets emotional much but man, since I had DS I have gotten so much more emotional!
Last night I started cutting up DS's baby clothes for the quilt I'm making and I can't believe I cried while I did it. It hit me so had that he will never be that small again. I remember buying some of those outfits after we found out the sex and I was thinking it'd be so long before he fit in some and now he's outgrown them. It just blows my mind that he will be one in 2 months. I can't comprehend that.
Then this morning DS was just being so silly and laughing and I started crying again! He's such a happy baby and I feel so blessed to be his Mommy. He just makes me so happy and I don't know how my life was ever complete without him.
I know this was kind of a pointless post but I just had to blab. I think it's really hitting me he won't be a baby for much longer. He's so independent now and learning so many new things. This mama isn't ready for this!

Re: DS is turnin me into an emotional mess...
OMG, the wedding I was in a few weeks ago I was balling when the mother and son danced.
I'm in the emotional mess boat too.
I was a cryer before her but now it's kind of ridiculous how much I cry and what can send me over the edge post baby.
Watching my nephew this weekend had me on the verge of tears a lot. He's almost 3 and such a great kid. I can remember when he was born and how excited we all were. I can't believe that one day (soon!) G's going to be this big.
I was definitely not a cryer before DS. Now, I cry at freaking everything. The other day we went to a baseball game and a little boy got picked to say "play ball" into the loudspeaker and I cried. I couldn't believe myself! So weird how having kids changes almost every aspect of your life.
Aww Rebecca how sweeet is this post? It sounds like you are really enjoying motherhood! Don't you just wish we could have locked up their sweet baby smell- their little rolls- and visions of them reaching for us? The quilt sounds amazing- will you be making one for DS and yourself? I think crying is good! It keeps you connected to the most authentic part of you!
Today I became tearful watching Bo hug the Little Gym teacher
I felt like wait-- I am you mommy I want that cuddle!
I'm "technically" making the quilt for DS. It'll be a crib size one so he can carry it around and have it for a few years. I plan on eventually hanging it up on the wall somewhere when he's done with it so it's for me too. I want to make one for each of our kids. It's amazing how many memories are in these baby clothes. His first holiday outfits, his take home outfit, family picture outfit...ah, I know I'm gonna wanna cuddle with it more than DS ever will.
