"My Baby"

It's been going on for a while now, but I keep forgetting to write about it!

The boys definitely have their favorite parents - Lincoln constantly says "daddy do it" and Jackson just says "mommy!  mommy!".  Often times to avoid meltdown we fall into our natural pairs.  Bath time seems to be one of those times.

We start with putting the boys on the potty, then they go in the tub.  Brian and I both give the boys baths if we are home, mostly to maximize the time that we get to spend with them each evening.  But as I said, Brian usually gives Lincoln a bath, and I give Jackson a bath. 

Probaby a few months ago, I scooped Jackson out of the tub and wrapped him up in his towel.  Then, I cradled him in my arms, and rocked him back and forth a bit and called him my baby.  He giggled.  I told him he was my baby...and no matter what, he would always be my baby.

Now, almost everynight after bath time when I wrap him in his towel and pick him up, he lays down in my arms, giggles and says "Myyyyy baby!"

I love my boys SO MUCH!
