Separation Anxiety?

I can’t seem to do anything these days without the aid of Kaden.

He showers with me… jammies and all.  (And, yes, that is my razor, but the blades are removed. :))

He has to be right by me while I dry my hair… so I stick him in the drawer next to me and he stays put, playing with whatever I hand him.  Here?  The nasal rinse bottle.

Vacuuming is a always a chore, but when Kaden is involved it becomes a very long process.  Combining his love for the vacuum and his need to be RIGHT by me at all times, makes for a stop and go activity.

Which is totally why I barely ever vacuum.  

And it really slows down the process when he decides it is okay to leave my side and steals the vacuum cleaner away from me.  

He is in my arms 75% of the day.  He would be most happy if I just stood and held him, all day (I can’t even think about sitting down without making him mad.)

It is amazing what a Mama can figure out how to do one-handed when she’s blessed with a child who has attachment issues.  Peanut-Butter-and-Jelly-one-handed anyone?

I don’t know if this is separation anxiety or if he just wants to be up where the action is.

Either way, it forces our day to slow down a bit… me to slow down a bit.

And it is giving me a mighty strong left arm.

I’m not sure if it’s my screen or something in the layout but the right column cuts off the last couple of letters.

XOXOXO to GCK from Grammie

Such an oral child! What happens if you put him in the Moby facing out…and just let him hang out with you? At least that would give you two hands :0)
