Bath time...

Jul 19, 2010 17:32

Some people think its obsessive that I absolutely have to give my baby girl a bath every night...I think sometimes people think I have OCD or something. The truth is, to me its all about spending time with her. I work all day and when I get home I'm always in such a rush to get things done. Bath time is a time when its quiet and its just me and her telling secrets and singing songs as she happily splashes away. Its a time when I can savor her and revel in her innocence and beauty. I was the same way with Aiden...I gave him a bath every single day for the first year of his life without fail. Of course he still bathes every day but now he's upgraded to showers...he's a big boy now ;-)

I remember how special those times were with my Aiden...he is my first baby and I cherished every moment with him as an infant and toddler...of course I still love every moment we spend together now...he surprises me every day :) But babies just grow so fast...one moment they're in your stomach kicking the crap out of you til you satisfy them with lots of strawberry pop tarts and the next moment they are in your arms...these little screaming, wrinkled, AMAZING little beings that change your life forever...

Aiden was my first born and Mya is my first baby girl...Aiden is already talking a mile a minute and does so many things on his own but Mya still depends on me for everything. I missed that with my Aiden...Mya looks at me like I am her whole entire world... I love that feeling I get when she smiles at me because I know that she means that smile with all of her heart and she also means it to be just for me...So I guess thats why I adore bathtime and bedtime so much...I love being that last face she sees before drifting off into dreams of sweet milk and angels...my beautiful baby girl...
