{THE ORDINARY MOMENTS 15} Silence of the Night & Baby Boy
In the silence of the night is when I am most relaxed with my beautiful baby boy. I must admit that I am normally feeding him and checking out Twitter these days but I do try to stop and completely memorise his soft sweet head. Those little fingers that are often gripping on to my pyjama top or reaching out for warm skin are so special.
He is normally drinking his favourite milk with his eyes closed but once in awhile I look down and he is staring at me. He is smiling and chatting more these days and in the quiet of the night is when we have our best talks. There is no sister making noise or the humming of a children's TV program in the background. There is just him and I cuddling in the dim-lighted living room. Sometimes he wants to bounce up and down on my lap. Working on strengthening his legs and wiggling his bottom. Soon he falls back to sleep peacefully and I sneak back into bed. In the morning, I wake feeling tired but he wakes up and gives me a huge smile. The smile and look in his eyes says "Thank you Mommy for the warm milk and cuddles last night". I am trying to remember every moment of my son being a baby. I don't know if will have another baby in the future so I need to cherish these "ordinary" baby moments. I love you sweet boy.

I used to love those night feeds. Late at night just baby and me whilst the rest of the world - or so it seems - sleeps. The quiet, their breathing, that baby smell and the sucky noises. Those really were the best times x
ReplyDeleteThank you Donna. I cherish this cuddles in the middle of night. I know soon they will not happen as often. Best times!
DeleteAwww... I love this post. It made my heart melt. Will especially love my cuddles with baby girl tonight when she's waking every 3 hours xx
ReplyDeleteThank you sweetie! Give your daughter a cuddles from me. They are so sweet! Have a fun holiday weekend.
DeleteAwww... I love this post too and it takes me right back. Falling out of the bed next morning to them looking up at you and your heart melts. I used to love the sleepy smiles x
ReplyDeleteThank you Lisa. Morning smiles are really the best reward for minimum sleep nights. These times just pass too quickly!
DeleteAw I used to love these late night feeds so much. Even now I miss them weirdly even though at the time you think you will never ever not be so exhausted. Definitely treasure them as they go too quickly don't they? xx
ReplyDeleteThank you Katie. I do hope someday to actually feel rested in the morning but I am just trying to cherish these moments with my Baby Boy. Never will get these moments back with him. Warm soft head is the best. Cuddles with our growing girls are not bad either! Have a fun Easter weekend!
DeleteAhhh gorgeous picture of him. those moments do sound very special. I'll be mindful to make the most of them when my 1st baby boy arrives in July x
ReplyDeleteCongrats! You will be tired and hope that they don't roll out of your arms when you fighting falling back to sleep but they will be some of your favourite moments. You don't have share them with anyone. Big hug!
ReplyDeleteLovely Photo! So Precious :-)
ReplyDeleteI vividly remember moments like this with my son. They are the most ordinary and yet also the most precious. #sharewithme
ReplyDeleteOh this is so beautiful. I couldn't agree more and I will never forget my late night feeds with either of my babies and how precious they are just the two of you in the darkness together as one. It's something that is so amazing about those times. Good for you for cherishing every last drop of it while it last. Thanks for linking up to Share With Me. Happy Easter! #sharewithme
