Day 17 - Mommy's little angel!
I could seriously spend all day just watching Little Elvis. His expressions and noises are so precious. And he's such a wiggleworm! When I hold him while he is sleeping, he'll squirm and wriggle and I think it's the sweetest, cutest thing in the world.
It's amazing to me how enamored I am with him. I know they say that being a mother changes everything, but I didn't realize how much it would until I saw him for myself.
Actually, I had an idea while I was pregnant. I suddenly became very frustrated with smokers, people who came to work coughing up lungs, and people who wouldn't give me their seats on the Metro. That stuff really didn't bother me before I got pregnant. But I didn't want anyone hurting my baby.
Now that he's out of the womb and I can see he's fine, I'm still over-protective. I'm not taking him outside right now, except for doctor's appointments. It's too cold and keeps snowing here!
Have your feelings changed since having a baby?

I think it's scary and amazing how the dangers we didn't care about or didn't even notice, come out of the woodwork when we're a mother. I think that seeing them and keeping them in check is what makes a good mother and the ones who, ya know, toss their kids into the bay or let them literally play in traffic, are the ones who shouldn't be mothers in the first place.
I was extremely over protective with my son until around 6 months. It was as though he seemed "studier" at that point and I didnt worry so much. I hated it when people would hold him and he was crying and I knew that if I held him, I could make it better. It would create so much anxiety. I couldnt sleep the other night because I started worrying about him starting school.......he is only 18 months! LOL I remind myself to take it one day at a time! You just love them soooo much it is hard to believe!
