Some Rare Baby Cuddles...

By Sjay235 @naturalmommainm
Isabelle isn't a very "cuddly" baby. She LOVES her boob time, but generally she doesn't cuddle up if it isn't for boobs! She will sit with me while we chat, sing songs etc, but rarely just for a cuddle. Since she was very little, she's been quite independent, and often prefers to sit alone so she can watch what's going on around her rather than be hassled by her mother/father/granny etc!
So, today I've been enjoying some rare cuddles. The little lady has cuddled up on my chest a few times, sucking her thumb, and just snuggling in. It's been just delightful getting those special few moments with her.
Sadly, every silver lining has a cloud and for us, it's those pesky teeth! They are to blame for making her feel a bit sorry for herself, so while I'm enjoying the cuddles, the poor baby is feeling pretty rotten.
Still, I'll enjoy these moments while they are here, and this is much preferable to the yelling that has accompanied her sore gum days in the recent past!
And a recent picture of my little lady, who is 5.5 months now and more beautiful and wonderful every single day. Stay tuned for her 6 month update in the next few weeks (and our move towards weaning...)
