big rig

i’ve noticed lately that my baby boy is really growing up, and it breaks my heart. he’s been tucking baby dolls into bed like his big sister, laying on the floor on his belly to play and draw (see pic below), and has even started to walk in on his own to the sitter (with mommy following behind obviously). that might not seem like a big deal, but he’s always let me carry him while rowan walked. now he kicks for me to let him down and wants to do it on his own. i guess it’s okay; he is a handful, but this momma is used to having a baby on her hip 🙁 and since he’s insisting on walking, that means i have to start putting shoes on this child a little more often.
