Family traditions

I used to think that little babies didn't have concious intentions. Reading about three week old babies on the internet, you learn that it is not possible to spoil them and that they cannot be expected to have a rythm in the things they want and do. Since they are only a few weeks out of the womb, they live on primal instincts only.

So our little man has a primal need to be in a kingsize bed after dinner. Not just yesterday and today, but everyday. He cries when we put him to bed after his bottle, and when we gently lay him in the big bed, he sighs and relaxes. We surrender by laying next to him, which makes him groan with pleasure. He sleeps comfortly between mum and dad, not even minding the Sunday soccer playing on the television. In the old days the two of us (now your mum and dad) lay here after dinner to relax after a days work. I even got some sleep most evenings. Now we just stare at you sleeping and catch the pacifier when it drops from your mouth. Not only have you become the center of our world - once daily you are the center of our bed.
