separation anxiety

naomi is almost 7 months {on monday!} and we are now really starting to see the "stranger danger" reflex kick in. i have to admit, it kinda makes me a tiny excited to see her looking for me and reaching her little arms out to me.

she usually will go to women however, not willingly..but men, that's a different story. as soon as a man picks her up she gets that distressed "steve" face with the furrowed brow and starts to pout her nervous little pout. with women she will stare long and hard at the person holding her then quickly scan the room to find me. if i am close by then there's a quick sigh of relief and she usually goes right for the hair or jewelry next.

i know someday i might be bugged that she is so attached to me but for now i'm all about her wanting to be on team mommy.

hands down mom is the winner for #1 fave
{also check out those little teeths. she's had them since 3 months old!}
dad is a not-so-close second
she for sure would pick mom first but she does looove her daddy too.
its adorable to watch her look around a crowded room to find him.
looklooklook..find daddy..sigh of relief followed by a big smile.

and.. here's yet another strange sleeping position. i usually move her from this one because it kinda makes me nervous. baby needs to breathe! doesn't she understand that?!

Oh lizzy she is yummers! It is fun when they are reaching for you and only you:) My children like to suffocate themselves in the bedside also and it freaks me out too! Makes them feel cozy I guess. I miss you and want to meet that little missy!

I love that she is Steve's mini-me. There is nothing better than seeing your baby's face light up when they see you!
