Love at first sight

Before I knew I was pregnant with you somebody else knew. Gracie was the first to realize you were there. All through my  pregnancy she would rest her head on my tummy listening to the rhythm of your heart. 

There was many times she even felt you kicking and wiggling around. So it was no surprise that from the moment you were born it was love at first sight. Even Bailey fell in love with your sweet little personality, ever ready to protect you from any harm.

Now that you are not only crawling but have an insatiable need to explore, Gracie and Bailey have been the target of your excitement.

They learnt quickly to jump up and move away when you get close, but that doesn't deter you as you stop, spin around and chase them around and around. 

You desperately want to pat them, feeling their hair between your fingers, the rough pads on their feet and the soft hair on their ears. 

Finally I found a way to allow you to play with them without them losing any clumps of hair to your sneaky little hands. We all sit out the front in the warm winter sun. Mama blows bubbles into the breeze and the puppies jump and chase them as they float around. 

This leaves you in a fit of giggles, and my heart swells with love watching my little boy play with his puppies.
