My favorite things about Marshall

1. The intimate little conversations we have when our faces are 3 inches apart and he has his little chubby hands pulled up clasping each other under his chin. It usually goes like this:
Me: Agooooo
Him: Agoooo
Me: OOOOO
Him: OOOO
We find out so much about each other this way.

2. How when he's upset and crying he has enormous tears that slide down his chubby cheeks and no matter what the problem is, the look on his face says that you've betrayed him to the bitter core.

3. How I can calm him down by brushing my cheek against his cheek and cooing at him.

4. How he puts himself to sleep :)

5. How he gets so excited when he's "talking" that he sticks out his neck like a little turtle and his upper lip gets pointy.

6. How he head bangs my uh.. self when he's really hungry and can't wait to eat.

7. How when he wants something in front of him he just glares at it and clasps his hands very tight and the more he wants it the harder he glares and the tighter he clasps his hands.

8. How after he's done nursing he pops off, looks up at me and coos with milk dripping down his chin.

Ah, yes! And don't you just love how when they're so satisfied to FINALLY be eating that their eyes roll back in pure contentment :)
