Morning Routine

It's funny sometimes when you think about your life pre-baby. Danny and I wouldn't get out of bed on a weekday until we had hit the snooze button at least twice. We would run around like chickens with our heads cut off to get out the door on time. My how things change. These days I only set the alarm clock on the off chance that Kane will sleep past 5:30am. By the way, he never does. He is always up by 5:00am ready to eat and play.

Now, instead of hitting the snooze button, Danny gets up and gets Kane out of bed while I fix his morning bottle. The two of them get back into bed for their cuddle/feeding time. I use this time to get ready for work since I leave about an hour before Danny each morning. It melts my heart everyday when I listen to the two of them as I am putting on my make-up. Danny talks to Kane and Kane babels on and laughs at his daddy. Every morning when I finish getting ready, I come out of the bathroom to see my two boys propped up in bed watching cartoons. I laugh at the sight of the two of them. Kane looks like Danny's mini me with his arms behind his head and his feet crossed. It cracks me up just thinking about it.

Helping with morning feedings is just the beginning of all the wonderful things that Danny does for me and Kane everyday. I am so lucky to have him as my husband, and he is a wonderful dad. Life can be so hectic for two working parents like us, and time with Kane is much more limited than I wish it was. However, I absolutely love that they have their boy bonding time each morning.
