Yelling

Porter has officially found his voice. He sits there happy as can be, just yelling. Not crying, no he doesn't do that very often, he just likes to yell. It's all fine and dandy and sometimes hillarious, for the first 3 minutes. Drew and I are thinking about taking turns checking into the insane asylum... jk. but seriously this kid is hillarious and frustrating adorable and indisputably annoying. Basically I'm a good mom, but like everyone else in the world (besides truly blessed people) I get angry. Now I hate getting mad at porter but sometimes I just can't take the yelling. Like today, he was yelling and yelling, I'd put the binky in his mouth and he'd yell with it in, and then spit it out and yell louder. He ju
st loves to hear the sound of it. I finally loose it. I turn to him, prepared to yell about as loudly as he'd been yelling to "beeeee quieeettttt PLEASE!" (i know bad mom he's just a baby, but really if I can handle porter I can't handle drew complaining about porter so I finally lose it at port because he's what's making drew so crabby) I sit up (he'd been in his swing because after a while we can't stand to just hold a yelling baby so we hope the swing will do the trick) so I sit up and get ready to yell at him. AS SOON as he makes eye contact with me he stops me dead in my tracks because he flipping cracks the biggest smile at me. I say in a very serious tone " stop smiling, you will not learn that you can get away with things just because you smile" he gives me a curious look, then smiles again.
I love this kid. I really do. I don't like him all the time and I"lll admit it, sometimes i really want to just give him back for a few years until I feel like I can handle it, but then i'll never get him back.
take it as it comes right? anyways. 2 minutes after the smiley boy, he yells again. But we eventually got him to sleep.
either way. he needs to get bored of the sound of his voice yelling, and just coo. cause that's wayyy better for my sanity.
