In honor of Miral’s fifth week and how big she seems I want to remember all the little things that newborns do that you forget about when your baby is no longer a newborn.  I’ve experienced these little things twice before and still forgot about them until I saw them again this past month.

1.  The little sounds babies make when nursing or taking a bottle, from mewing to growling they are all adorable. 
2. The way they clench their little fists up so tight it’s impossible to clean in between their little fingers. 
3. The way they curl up their little feet up to their butt when they are super comfy on your chest. 
4.  How they sleep best when they are on their chest or in your bed or when yourlittle hand is on their little chest. 
5.  The grunting at night. Oh so much grunting. 
6. When you make a noise or move them when they are sleeping and they raise their hand in protest, as if you want to wake them up!
7. How much of your life is spent putting them to sleep. 
8. How they always wake up crying the minute hot food is brought out to the table. 
9. How they have sweet little smiles that melt your heart until you realize it’s gas and they spit up all over you 🙂
10. How amazingly precious every little part is of this beautiful little creature that grew in your belly.
