LMW is back to normal human wakeup times, around 5:30 or 6am (thank GOD), and when she wakes up we bring her into our bed so she can roll around a bit and play while we catch a few more minutes of sleep. Lately she's been wanting to cuddle, which is a totally new experience for me!! Her older brother was NOT a cuddler.

This morning I woke up to her softly stroking my cheek and tracing my closed eye with the tip of her finger. She was doing it for several minutes (to my knowledge!) and saying softly "mommy, mommy". When I finally woke up she wanted to cuddle. So I held her in the crook of my arm and rubbed her back. That wasn't enough for her... she wanted to lay across my chest with her head on my shoulder and her arms around my neck!!

After some more cuddling I told her to go give Daddy a hug, and she went and did the same with him.

Best way to start a dreary, rainy Friday morning!! What do your early morning cuddles look like??
