A Little Cuddle Never Hurt Anyone

So, even as a newborn, Ethan was never one to "cuddle." In fact, I could never even rock him to sleep. What kind of baby doesn't like to be rocked? For Ethan, that means he could not see what was going on around him. He is an observer. It makes it hard for Mom who would love a little cuddle-time once and a while... ok... all the time! Today was really nice. When I got home he was already tired. So he climbed up on my lap and wanted to watch "Signing Time." I put on the new episode "Helping Around the House." He has already learned "sweep" and started to sweep with his child-size broom. So maybe by next week he will learn "wash dishes"... hey, I can dream can't I?

Here I as thinking my baby was the only one who didn't like to cuddle. Me myself am a cuddler... But she only cuddles her papa. Hey if he doesn't cuddle you, I will. Love you Jen.
