This is our little morning routine, right before, or shortly after daddy leaves, in he comes, with his pillow ("a-pow") and his blanket and bear. He climbs in bed and whines and kicks at me (and occasionally smacks me awake with a-pow) until I get up and get him a sippy of milk and turn on some cartoons so mommy can sneak in a few more moments of sleep before Ben wakes up.
There aren't many baby things left in this boy. He is now more boy than baby, and soon will leave all traces behind that he ever was my wee babe. But for now, I will enjoy the dimpled hands still smudged with marker from the day before, the sippy of milk, and my snugly mornings with my dear Henry.

i like this post. its true and weird how little baby is left and how much they are big boys now.
aw, this makes me teary. perfect way to capture such a precious time. ella was my only one that snuggled in the morning watching cartoons - there was too much life going on when the others arrived. those years seems like eons ago. i'm so glad you made me remember that sweet time.
ahh, dear sweet henry. i love my mornings in bed too. they're the best! hope you're all feeling better!! :)
He really is becoming such a big boy... I can hardly believe it. Sweet Henry. I'm so glad you're treasuring these special little times! It sounds like perfection.
