It’s true, I have a little mama’s boy. And ya know what? I love it 
Sure I feel bad when Ryan cries with daddy… but I try to reassure Steve that it has nothing to do with him, it’s just that most babies form their first attachment to their mom! (It doesn’t hurt things that mom provides the milk, right?!) And I tell him that in Ryan’s 2nd year of life, he’ll prefer his daddy because they tend to be “more fun” or so I’ve heard.
The bad part is that Steve watches Ryan every morning while I’m at work and he has suddenly been having trouble feeding Ryan from the bottle. We’ve got a little boob monster on our hands! .….….….….….….….….….. my lil mama’s boy
He’s also getting more nervous around others… he does pretty well with his grandparents, but makes sure he knows where me and daddy are. He gets a little panicky sometimes if he can’t see us! It hasn’t caused any problems for us yet… we take him with us most places because we want him with us. So I’m not sure how he’ll handle it (or how I’LL handle it) when we may need to leave him for a bit. I’m so thankful that Steve and I both have our parents in town to help out.

Aww. My son is a daddy’s boy. He just cries and cries when i hold him. He’s happy and fine for daddy, though! >_< and his grandpa, actually. And strangers.. unless their boobs are the size of mine, LOL. He gets grumpy when there is food around and he’s not getting any!
