Im a mommy. And mommy's are going to brag about their kids. We cant help it. Its been imbeded in us since we heard the first heart beat and felt their first little kick. Jaxson's first kick wasnt so little though. It was more of a jolt in my side. You can tell a lot about their personalities just in the womb. Ethan was very calm, he would go days without moving. I would feel little feet every now and then to reassure me that he was still there. The one and only time he kicked me in the ribs was the day my grandmother died and I had been crying all day. It hurt so bad and literally took my breath away. It was like he was saying 'Mom..enough'! I stopped crying after that and he never did it again. To this day Ethan does not like to see my upset. And he only needs to tell somebody once if he also upset. He slept through the night at 6 weeks old, and for the most part was a very calm baby.
Jaxson on the other hand, well he is a different story. As I said before, his first kick was brutal. After that it was non-stop. He would move and move all day and all night. So much that it almost made me sick. Doctors and nurses could never keep him on the monitor because he was so active. I actually had a L&D nurse come and tell me that she felt very sorry for me because I was going to have an active child. He is 6 months old right now and has yet to sleep through the night. He must be rocked to sleep every night. The child never stops moving..whether he is in my lap or on the floor. He is though one of the happiest babies I have ever met..always smiling!!
I always knew that I would be a mother to boys. Thats really what I always wanted. Ethan played baseball for 2 years and this year he has decided to play football. I cant wait to get out on the field and cheer my children on. Not only on the field but in everything they do! They make me proud everyday. I cant imagine a life without them.
Now, I wont make all my blogs about them but they are a huge part of my life so of course they are going to come up. Im not the perfect mother and Im sure Im not doing everything right..but hey, you live and learn...right???
