Got your nose

Probably one of the things that has bothered me the most since having Lil Hoff is that everyone says he looks just like Farmboy and while I think Farmboy has lots of traits I want Lil Hoff to inherit I would like some of the credit for carrying the child for 10 months and for all the labor troubles I have. With all that said I am super excited that Farmboy is starting to really interact with Lil Hoff.

Farmboy has been great with feeding Lil Hoff and we alternate nights putting him down and Farmboy has always done bath-time and he will hold him too. Now he has gotten away from changing diapers but I can handle that with everything else he does. With all that said he is no superman, the minutes Lil Hoff starts to get fussy and Farmboy had exhausted all that he knows what to do ( mainly feeding him or sticking his pacifier in) he is quick to call in reinforcement (me) to take over. He has struggled with what Lil Hoff's purpose is right now. Sure he loves him and thinks he is great but he is ready for Lil Hoff to do more, like walk or talk or play catch. I have struggled with how to encourage Farmboy that one day Lil Hoff will be there but all he does now is cry and eat and go to the bathroom. But we both saw a glimpse of a what is the beginning of admiration from Lil Hoff to his dad Saturday night. They were both sitting on the couch and Farmboy started playing gotcha your nose and took Lil Hoff's nose and he looked up at his daddy and just grinned and daddy turned to mush right there and it helped me to remember what a great man Farmboy is and that Lil Hoff is lucky to have such a wonderful man to be 'just like'
