Before I ever had Payton I was told by many people that you can't spoil your child by holding them too much while they are so little. Well I am beginning to think that statement is untrue. I spend most of my day holding Payton. She spends a lot of her day sleeping. Those two don't go together. You would think that if she is sleeping then I would be able to get things done and she would be lying in her pack n play. But that is not the case with this little one. I decided to blog about this after trying to lay her down 3 times today. This is after rocking her for long periods of times, and she is literally passed out in my arms with mouth open and all. So I feel like it is safe to go lay her down, wrong. Within minutes, sometimes seconds she opens her eyes and begins to make her little noises that leads to outbursts of cries. Don't get me wrong I absolutely love holding her while she sleeps. But I know that if I keep doing this now, then I am going to have a hard time ever getting things done in months to come. Payton knows when she is being held by me or someone else, she loves it. So moral of the story, my child loves being held while she is sleeping, the minute she is laid down, she wakes up. She is already spoiled at 5 weeks old.
But I guess like my Papaw always said... "that's what you have them for" :)
