Baby Love

Posted by kara

Things I love about Martha: her soft fine baby hair, her smart eyes, her rough cheeks, her soft ears, when she gurgles “hehehe” (it sounds like nervous giggling), when she furrows her brow for her tough look, her loud toots and poops, her pure smiles, her elephant grunts… and my favorite of favorites: her baby hands! I love how tiny her baby hands are compared to her huge head. Anytime her hands are anywhere near her head, it cracks me up to see the proportions.

I just love that she’s mine. (Ours.) I am free to hold her, cuddle her, laugh at/with her, smother her in kisses, pick her up, put her down, anything! At least, until she’s mobile and can do something about it. I’m definitely finding that it’s nice the second time around because I’m not as stressed out about what is supposed to be happening. I can enjoy her for her baby-ness and not worry about the millions of things you can worry about with a baby. She is a pretty good baby though… I think she’s easier than Toshi was.

Now if she would just sleep longer at night, I could defrazzle my mind. But I really shouldn’t complain. She’s just lovely.
