bum squish is the best kind of squish, unless you're not a baby, then bum squish is the worst kind of squish

Aside from his dumbo ears, Warner's chubby chubby bum cheeks are my favorite.
It's the one thing I look forward to about diaper changing time, when I can cup that bum in the palm of my hand and jiggle the heck out of that thing. Creepy, no? But I can't get enough of the squish!!

The other day when I was doing the dinner dishes, Jared started chuckling from the other room and called for me to take a look. I peered over the counter, and the big dubster was up on all 4's, rocking like crawling was going to be his business in no time! Talk about a shot to a mother's heart! Jared was ecstatic, egging him on, assisting Warner in his efforts to become more mobile and independent. I, on the other hand, scolded Jared for wanting him to move along because a) the moment Warner starts crawling my life is going to get more difficult and b) I'm not ready to give up my baby! At 7 months, this kid still falls asleep on me like a newborn.  He's magic! He started sitting up independently 2 weeks ago, and that has actually been helpful. But crawling!!! Put it off, my son. Just stay firmly planted and let more of that squish build up in your thighs. Don't worry about my squish accumulating; your sister is the energizer bunny and gives me plenty of exercise throughout the day :)

  5. I hear you! Those chubby thighs are delightful! Our almost 8.5 month old just started crawling over the weekend. He's slow and uncoordinated for now, but I know it won't last long. Warner is one cute kid for sure.

  10. Haha your title made me chuckle because it's so true. I was totally thinking about that yesterday. How much I love my Sean's chunky thighs and how fat they are, but if he were an adult... they would be considered repulsive lol!!! I did a baby bath post today too ;)

  11. Oh, I totally know what you're talking about. I, too, love when my little guy is diaper free, because that bum! He's a skinny boy, too, but he's got such a squishy bum! Haha. Motherhood turns women a bit crazy, me thinks.
    And what is it with dads encouraging mobility? They just don't get it...
