Oh, Baby

Dear Jordan,

This is my last post before you officially become a little boy.  I have one week left with my one-year old baby.  Sigh.  You just have grown up so fast.  We are excited about celebrating your birthday next week!

Something I keep forgetting to mention is how cute you are when I get up from your bed.  You always stand up for me to pick you up, but then at the last minute you decide to grab as many blankets and animals as you can.  Usually you bring your Brobie pillow and a blanket, but somethings you are able to grab Leon too.  You have snuggle expectations for me and it's hard for them to meet them if you don't get to bring your pillow and blanket.  Usually, you will lay in my lap until you drink some milk or water and then work up the energy to get going.  It doesn't take long!  Let's say this...in the mornings, you are always ready for action quick than I am!

It's been a hard week for me.  I feel so bad for you, because I think you feel neglected, but there have been a few days where morning sickness has been hard for me.  You are having to be patient with me, your lame Mama.  For the most part, you don't mind, but I can tell you miss going out as much as we used to.  Hopefully soon I'll be back to full strength and you'll be able to get out to play with your friends again.

You are a little basketball fan.  You call it "ball-ball" and whenever we watch it, you feel the need to bring your basketball goal in the living room.  You're actually pretty good.  I don't think you are going to be very tall, but you have the personality that, if you felt like making it happen, you could play basketball someday!  You have even learned to chant "OU!" in your little whimsical voice!  By the time you read this, I know that voice will be no more, but until then, I love it.  It's so soft and sweet.

Tomorrow is the Superbowl.  I'm excited to watch it but I'm much more excited to watch the Dog Championships that come on before.  You love dogs and will get such a kick out of watching them jump after frisbees and running through obstacle courses.  It should be fun!

Well, we have a week of snow and your birthday coming up.  I bet we're going to have some fun, too!

I love you, buddy!

Mom
