Even though today started out around 5 am, this is a day that I want to remember. According to Matt, Jax is completely in love with me. Jax will watch my every move. He gets mad if I am not in the room or if I take my eyes off of him for one second. If Matt is holding Jax he will look around until he spots me. I love this b/c before I know it Jax will be Levi's age and will be over the "I'm so in love with Mommy" stage.
This morning Jax woke up at 5. Normally, he doesn't wake up until 6:30 so I knew he was still tired. Our bedroom is on the other side of the house from the kids room so I took Jax in our room so he didn't wake up Levi. Jax wasn't really crying just a little whine every now and then. I started to sing the Itsy Bitsy Spider to Jax and he calmed right down. Now, I don't have the voice like Celine Dion by any means. But for whatever reason Jax liked it. I sang this song to him from 6:00-6:25 while swaying back and forth with Jax in my arms. I have put Jax down for 2 naps since this morning and both times I sang Itsy Bitsy Spider over and over. He calmed down each time. This may be a total fluke and he may not like this silly song tomorrow or even later today but I love these moments. I am so grateful that I get to be the one to sing my baby to sleep.
