It's Official...

Phoenix is a "Mama's Boy". Since he was born me and Travis have played a little game where we take turns holding him and the person who is not holding him tries to get Phoenix to reach out for them. Until today it has been pretty even.

This evening before Travis went upstairs to put the little guy down to bed we decided to play yet another round of "choose who you want to go to". Phoenix reached out for me every time, and cuddled into my shoulder when Travis reached for him. Then Travis came over and hugged both of us, and gave me a kiss on the lips. Phoenix pushed him out of the way, and grabbed my chin and pulled me in for the wettest kiss ever (think Dumb + Dumber). It was one of the top moments of my life.

This morning I was frustrated with Phoenix because he was exhausted but he was fighting going to sleep with all the strength he had. I am really glad that I know that he loves me. It makes those difficult moments easier.

And don't worry Trav, I know that our little guy loves you, and I know you two will be best buds. But I will enjoy this mama's boy stage while it lasts...
