Today I'll take a break from organizing posts and reflect on my love affair with being a mother. I love it! Yes sometimes I can get stressed out and want to hide in the laundry room... Wait not the laundry room, a bar... Yeah, sometimes I'd love to hide out in a bar. However most of the time I love it. I love how Little Bear reaches his arms up for me and his face lights up in the morning when I get him from his crib.
I love the conversations (using this word loosely) that I have with Munchkin. His personality is growing and developing everyday. Some times I crack up at the things he says... You know, the spit your food out kind. Last week I accidentally (on purpose) threw away a small piece from a happy meal toy. The next time he threw something out.. I was caught. He said, very lecturing like, "Mommy, dis does not go in dere." (he still hasn't mastered the "th" sound, which is a whole other thing I love).
Sometimes I worry about not having little infants anymore (at least for now), but I love each new stage and milestone of their lives. Little Bear is all over the place and getting into everything now. I think I have at least 20 minor heart attacks a day as he comes dangerously close to bumping is face or head... or worse. And the kid isn't even walking yet! But I love that he's so curious, and his new independence makes me smile.
I love the mega block sandwiches I get from Munchkin, and I gobble them happily. It's wonderful to see his imagination blossoming. He is growing into such a kind, imaginative, handsome (of course ;), and smart little boy. At times I just stare, thinking back to those days when his tiny hand barely fit around my finger... sigh/smile.
It warms me up inside to see my two boys playing and interacting with each other. I swear our home gets louder every day and I know this is only the beginning, and I'm loving (almost) every minute. While I love my babies, I look forward to what is to come. Not sure why I'm feeling so sappy, but it's the truth... and I'm sure I'm not alone.

We definitely feel you on this one. As first time moms, its drastically changed our lives, but we wouldn't want it any other way. Its amazing to see them grow and reach each milestone as you mentioned. Its just all happening so fast.
