I miss this...

I was looking back at some of the photos of Josiah when he was just a newborn,


and I just want to point out some of the things that I miss that I want to experience over and over again.

I miss the smell of leftover milk that got left on his face(gross? I don't think so)
I miss how he looks all swaddled tightly in his blankets.
I miss the late night feedings that in which I hated at the time and took for granted.
I miss watching him just look at me.
I miss the silly new faces that he made everyday.
I miss how he used to fall asleep on my chest.
I miss how he would sleep anywhere and everywhere.
I miss the super tiny pajamas that I would keep him in all day.
I miss rocking him to sleep in my cradled arms.
I miss the newborn cry.
I miss watching him sleep while holding him.
I miss him NOT moving all the time.
I miss hearing him breathe by my bedside at night while he was asleep.

I loved all these things and more, and I took so much for granted. I didn't even think about how precious this all was to me till now. As a mother, I love to watch him grow and learn new things everyday. Although I miss these things, they were wonderful while they lasted and I can't wait to do it all over again. Speaking of which, my baby drive is starting to get to me. All these new moms(and moms again) having these beautiful little angels is making it difficult. However, I cannot wait to meet their newborns! I can't wait to see the little pink things that Britney has Ruby wearing and I'm excited for Chara's girls to meet their new little brother Titus. Both coming in December! Hopefully these new babies will help with my crazy drive!
