so tonight Orion wanted to sleep in his big boy bed again (we are averaging every other day or so) and he had me come in (normally we cuddle till he falls asleep) tonight he had me sit at the end of the bed. He wanted me there but didnt want me to lay down with him, he wanted to do it himself. (sigh) I love that he is growing up into such an independent self sufficient boy. Some days I think he could raise himself lol, he is so grown up all the time, he takes care of Aurora all the time, if she spits up and I haven't noticed he runs and gets a rag and wipes her face for me. This is just one example of what a little "man" he is turning into. However, I do miss how much he used to need/want me there all the time. When he first started sleeping in his own bed I was like, "oh I miss my baby", granted I have another baby to cuddle with and a husband who I miss cuddling with every night lol but I will miss my little boy. I know this is cliche but they grow up so fast! I cant believe the changes he has made just since Aurora was born. He is a great boy and I felt/feel so blessed tonight as I watched him sleeping and now as I write this post. Sometimes I wish time would stop... I guess we all should take a little more time to enjoy all these little moments. I know I just run run run and I want to remember this time with them, but for now my little two year old boy put himself to sleep in his own bed.

It's hard to watch them grow up! Each new stage is fun and exciting but sad at the same time cuz they've outgrown the last one! Bittersweet!
