has it already begun?

after i nursed asher tonight, i handed him off to steve to get him down so i could return to my meeting. after about 30 minutes of hearing his restlessness i went back upstairs to try to calm him down to sleep.

that didn't work very well...the screaming began and continued for a long, long time. screaming as we have never heard before. i tried nursing him, lying down with him, rocking, singing...you name it. nothing helped. and it just got worse and worse until we were really starting to think there was something wrong with him. so, we decided to take him downstairs to calm him down.

seriously, the second our foot touched the first stair, he looked at me, stopped crying and smiled. smiled! what a little stinker. then another smile, and another. a smile? seriously?

we stayed downstairs for about 15 minutes and them i took him back upstairs to get him down. after another 15 minutes or so of rocking, swaying, singing and playing his womb mp3, he finally fell asleep.

can a 19 week old really already be playing these games, or was his smiling just a fluke? if he's already playing us, i think we're in a world of hurt! such a stinker!!

but i have to say, that smile of his, melts me every time. every time. no matter what the circumstance or time, i would give the world for just 1 of his smiles. he already has me wrapped around his little finger doesn't he?!?
