This morning was hilarious!
I woke up a bit before Miles and let him sleep for about 20 extra minutes. Finally when I decided to wake him up he gave me this goofy grin then said he wanted to listen to "Stoy Story" (toy story). So I put it on for him. As he was listening I kissed his cheek. THEN he wipes it off!
I couldn't believe it so I gasped and he just laughed and then it was a game...
we did this for about 15 minutes and just laughed the whole time.
I kept thinking to myself, this is time I need to treasure. Him in my bed first thing in the morning and laughing together. I didn't want to get up, but he decided that since the "sun" (it was cloudy) was up it was time for us to wake up and get ready for the "tower school".
Today I was reminded yet again, how precious he is to me and how much I should cherish the moments I have with him.
Last night I got a glimpse of the future when I was falling asleep and grabbed one of his blankets to snuggle with. I smelled it to see if it would smell like him. It did and at that moment I wondered if I'd do that again when he was older and not living with me anymore. And I pictured what an amazing man he'd be someday.
Its so bittersweet those thoughts. I wait expectantly for those moments, but at the same time wish I could keep him small and innocent just a bit longer.
Oh love, what a strange emotion.
Life is so fun sometimes.....
We went to the doctor yesterday for the first time in a year and a half. I was nervous to say the least. Mainly because I have medicaid and you never know what you are gonna get. But also because Miles has never really liked the doctor. But I assured him we'd not be getting any shots and that the doc was just going to talk to him.
It went well. The doc was decent enough. She gave me a hard time about him not drinking Milk, eventhough I told her I give him vitamin C and D everyday. The funny thing was that she didn't even mention anything about vaccinations or ask me why I had chosen not to vaccinate my son. She also said I need to be more concerned and pushy about the whole potty training thing. She even suggested SPANKING! I was shocked. I have been told by other close friends that it worked for them, but "never tell your doc". LOL She suggested it and I will probably take her up on it.
Ok back the train up....
Yes, I do not agree with spanking...for the most part.
But here's the thing. I KNOW he is using it to control the situation. I KNOW he can do it and he has done it. So we are going to start..sooon. I think its me that needs to be potty trained first. UGH what a headache!
So then we get to the physical part and she took a long time listening to his heart. I got that sinking mommy feeling in my stomach. Then she tells me it doesn't sound right. She said it pauses at the end. She referred us to a cardiologist and I have been assured by multiple people that they are sure it is just normal and it isn't anything. I'll admit here, I'm freaking out a little. His appointment is January 7th and I can't wait. I just wanna find out whats going on in that little body.
On to the funny...
My mom listened to Miles' heart too just to see if she could hear it too. Then Miles wanted to listen.
So I put the stethescope on him and ask him "Miles, what do you hear"
He said, "It sounds ridiculous!"
LOL I couldn't stop laughing. He's too much!
I'm so thankful for him, he's amazing!
