Things That Are Cute

A blog post about things I find cute...
1) Say what you will about pacifiers but there is nothing cuter than a baby suck suck sucking on a binky. The wide eyes staring at you while their little mouths make the paci bob in and out in rapid succession...it's just cute. So is a little girl that loves her binky so much she holds it between two fingers through a feeding, diaper change, and half a bath. AND spends an inordinate amount of time concentrating on how to get it back in her mouth when it's fallen out during tummy time or in the carseat only to end up simply licking it since she can't always get it turned around and back in her mouth properly.
2) I think Elijah ate a whole carrot yesterday. It was pureed into a mashy goodness of course and packaged in a 39 cent jar from meijer, but he LOVED that carrot. No airplane spooning needed here, he simply opened his mouth wide every time the spoon came near his mouth and wolfed it down. To finish things off he sucked the remainder off his bib, fingers, and mommy's fingers. I should have offered him the ends of my hair come to think of it since carrot ended up there too.... (pictures later)
3) Morning playtime. It starts when the kids wake up and start talking to themselves in their crib, continues when I put both kids in one crib to hang out while we change clothes/diapers etc. and is culminated with Evelyn in the jumper and Elijah in the exersaucer facing each other and grinning/talking/squealing until it's time for breakfast.
4) Elijah sleeping. I know every mom probably thinks the same thing about their child, but this kid looks seriously angelic when he sleeps. Don't get me wrong, Evie is adorable when she's tuckered out, but Eli looks like he might have just drifted down off a cloud and landed wherever he's sleeping...
5) Kids falling asleep during activities such as a doorway jumper. Evelyn- almost mid jump yesterday -nodded off right in the seat. Then she woke up momentarily and jumped like there was no tomorrow...then nodded off again...

That's all for now, maybe next time I'll write about matching outfits, giant flowers on hats, and bare baby feet....
