How do they know

how to have you completely wrapped around their little fingers? Miss Emmalyn.. 5 months old.. and already such a con! She ALWAYS wants to be held. That's not good. I admit I have done this. I have spoiled her rotten. She's my last.. what can I say? Dont mind that I did this with the other two as well. I guess I'm just a sucker. Anyhow I need to find her a walker or exersaucer or something to put her down in. She associates her swing with sleep. Therefore when I put her in it.. she whines to get out. Today she was almost asleep.. I wouldnt let her see me cause I knew if she did it would be over. Well at that moment I spotted a fly on my screen door on the inside. It had to be let out.. I had to pass in front of her... darn! I open the screen and get the fly out and turn around to see these wide blue eyes just beaming at me. Then comes the huge wide open mouth smile. Then the little feet kicks. I talk softly to her and tell her to go night night. WHATEVER! Yeah right. She just smiled & kicked some more. How could I not pick her up? So yeah.. not much has gotten done today. Amazing how I had the house clean yesterday & today it looks as if a hurricane hit it. Until I get this kid something to occupy herself.. I'm going to be in this same boat. Giving in. Picking her up. Holding her. I'm such a sap!
