Henry's first time in the Swing!




Success!

Even MM joined in on the pushing. His joy was contagious. This was the first time Henry was out of the sling at the park. It was hard to push him and keep my daughter nearby. A little glimpse of what life will be like as Henry gets older and wants to play at the park as well. I already know Henry is going to be a handful. He is everywhere at the house. Not crawling yet, but scooting over pillows, toys, anything in his way to get to what he wants. He can sit up for a second, but isn't content to stay in one place. Margaret Mary was the same way!



All that fun led to one tired baby, and one snuggly momma. Henry has NEVER been a snuggler, even as a newborn. It was always hard to hold him because he didn't melt up against you, he would push himself off of you to look around. The sling has taught him to cuddle a little bit, in fact, the sling is the only time when Henry will be content to stay in one place. If you try to hold him outside the sling, he is constantly turning himself, pushing off of you, grabbing your face, etc. Thats why I loved this moment so much.
