follow-up to "having a new baby"

harrison has been here for six months. he does have a soft, fuzzy little head and i kiss it constantly. he is a snuggly little guy. i snuggle him as much as i can, and i still find time every day to snuggle my vito, who still has a soft noggin himself, even if it isn't very small! upon reading some of things i was most excited about with having little harrison here, it brought up a memory just from last month of my niece guin with baby harrison. she just loves that little guy so much! i just haven't met any other little girl with that much love in one little body, she was seriously more excited about seeing him than seeing her giant pile of Christmas presents, and that just doesn't happen with any five-year-old i know...

vito and harrison are best friends. every time we go anywhere vito makes sure to introduce "baby harrison." then he proceeds to climb into harrison's car seat, squishing him as he kisses him on the head several times. i asked for a tough little boy who could take some of his energetic big brother's craziness, and i got a BIG baby boy who not only can take the constant kisses, squishes, wrestling, rolling, hugging, etc. but who laughs out loud when his brother is near. seeing these two boys is my absolute favorite thing in the whole world. seeing daddy with one of these boys in each arm is also one of my absolute favoritest things. the other day nathan got home from work and i handed harrison over to him. harrison was "getting" him, which is a combo of tickling and hugging, taught to him by vito of course, and laughing and laughing. i've never seen a baby who was so feisty! i love it!
