Why I Miss Having a Newborn
Baby Feet
I don’t know what it is, but there’s something adorable about baby feet. I don’t even like feet, but I’ll gladly nibble itty-bitty little piggies. It’s practically a requirement to marvel at their tiny fingers and toes and count them. Also, little socks and booties always make me say, “Awww!”
That Gummy Grin
The gas-induced smiles are cute, but nothing compares to baby's first real smiles. Those toothless grins light up the room!
The Finger Grab
It may start out as a reflex, but it melts my heart when a baby grabs my finger—it’s like a mini hug! It’s also fun watching them try to get it in their mouth. They are so determined and fascinated by those oh-so-tiny digits.
Baby Babble
Those first sounds that are something other than crying are like music to my ears. Baby babble, cooing and giggles are hard to resist.
Cute Outfits
With so many darling baby clothes to choose from, how can you not want to dress them up? The tiniest of onesies make me tear up at the memory of how little my kids used to be. The best though? Baby tuxedos. Not practical for most day-to-day activities but extremely adorable!
Skin-to-Skin
It was the perfect excuse not to wear a bra for days after giving birth. Seriously though, I miss feeling their little heart beating, feeling each breath they took and feeling connected.
