One thing that ought to be known about Rowan is that he really loves to feel manly. Adrianne was never really too picky about who was holding her until she went through her "only mama" stage that all babies go through. But Rowan? Well, sometimes mama just isn't manly enough for him!
It's so funny, it really does seem like Rowan just needs a little testosterone every once in a while. He sometimes will only be calmed if his Dad holds him. And the thing that gets him smiling the most? Just call him "strong," "handsome," or "manly." He'll beam from ear to ear!
One day we popped over to grandparents' house for dinner and I all but tossed a wide awake Rowan into his Papa's arms, since it's not too often that people get the chance to see the little guy with his eyes open. Well, he just snuggled his head right into that manly shoulder and passed out.
Don't get me wrong, he can be a total mama's boy sometimes (though not as much as I would have dreamed). But sometimes the only thing that will soothe little Ro-Ro is a good old fashioned manly shoulder to sleep on.
That's so cute! Babies are so funny about what they're particular about!
