It's time for bed
Katy did one of the cutest things she's ever done last night. Her bedtime routine is to get her pajamas on and then have a drink of milk while I hold her on the couch and then we go rock and sing a couple songs and then I put her down. Usually while she's drinking her milk, Donny and I are watching TV together. Well, last night, she finished drinking her milk and I guess I let her down to play - I don't remember how she got down (I guess I was a little too in to the show). Anyway, she had her blanket and she went walking down the hall towards her room and I thought she was going back to get a toy, but she stopped half way down the hall and came back saying something like "you comin'?" She was telling me that it was time for bed. It was so cute to see her snuggling her blanket while she asked me that, but at the same time it kind of made me feel like a bad mom because I didn't put her down early enough. She is so sweet and patient with her lame mom. Hopefully that won't happen too often. I absolutely love my snuggle time with her when I put her to bed. It's the only time she'll really snuggle with me. She snuggles with Donny in the mornings if she gets up before he has to leave and he really misses it if she's not up early enough. I don't want to give it up, but I know too soon she'll be grown up and too old to rock at bedtime. We'll savor every second of it while it lasts though.

Cherish those moments. I miss my snuggles, too.
That is so sweet. I know what you mean, though, about feeling like a "lame mom." I feel that way because of something my kids do all the time!
