Family!


My morning ritual has now become me bringing Jack into bed with me because I love to cuddle him but more importantly I am selfishly still sleepy and am dreaming of a bit more shut eye. This of course doesn't happen but we do get about ten minutes to ourselves to smile, rub noses and yawn our eyes awake. This is our time and it's what we're used to, however the weekend comes and things change. Jack is all out of sorts wondering what to do with two people in the bed. He will turn and play with my eyes for a bit then shift to Mark and scratch on his beard going back and forth trying to figure us both out.
We are a family and it became clear to me the other day when Jack, tired of splitting time between Mark and I, rolled onto his back, stretched both his arms out and at the same time grabbed our faces and closed his eyes. He was done playing and wanted to go back to sleep and I was complete!

There is nothing sweeter than a baby cuddled up sleeping! I love that he needed both mom & dad!!

I agree, sooo precious. They are such angels when they are asleep.
