Being a stay at home mom has many advantages. The one that comes to mind this week is the fact that I don’t miss many firsts. First smile, check. First laugh, check. First da-da, check. But yesterday during the one hour he was at My Gym with Jason I missed a first. His first crush. Apparently, Gage made his big boy moves by taking the hand of the girl next to him, Mallory, and the two of them stared into each other’s eyes for few minutes. Aww. At nine months that’s like a first date!
I do need the few hours I get for myself, but then I miss some fun moments.
So, do you remember the first ‘first’ you missed? Or do you remember your first baby crush?

No I don’t remember a first first that I missed. I do think you may have a great idea for a novel – Gage’s first crush!!
These days I’m lucky if I can remember what I had for breakfast, haha. 😉
He looks so happy in that picture! Just saw his girlfriend, I presume?!!!
What girl wouldn’t crush on that adorable, smiley face?
I have a feeling you’ll see many more of Gabe’s crushes…It’s wonderful when babies relate to one another!
What girl wouldn’t fall for Gage? I love the happy picture! All of the firsts are so exciting. I remember all of yours.
I don’t remember the first first that I missed, but I’m sure there were plenty of them!
what a beautiful little guy.
He is so cute. Lots of firsts to come.
And lots of firsts I am sure I missed and forgotten I missed them:)
I don’t remember my first baby crush, LOL, but then I have a terrible memory! There must have been some firsts I missed. I know I don’t know who my son’s first crush is because he refuses to tell me anything to do with girls!
So cute! The Girl’s first crush was Serena’s husband when she was about 3. LOL
So cute that he has a baby crush!!!! Though maybe it was best you missed it … I’m sure you want to still be the only girl in his life!
awwww! That was so cute 🙂 I missed his first smile 🙂 which was on the 2nd day of his existence and was given to his Dad 🙂 and not ME 😀
He seems to be such a happy baby – probably because he has a mom who hasn’t missed many of his firsts. A mom that’s happy equals a happy baby.
I know I always say this…what a cutie. I’m also a stay-at-home parent and I haven’t missed much. Gabe is always flirting with the ladies…trying to kiss them and hold their hands. So cute. I do get jealous, though, when I’m gone and my hubby says he hasn’t missed me 😦
How adorable!
I don’t actually know the first first I missed. Of course, I don’t actually remember many of Amber’s firsts at all. The only one I remember clearly is the first time she rolled over – right into the TV.
I missed a lot of first moments with my first son because I had to work. But I was able to take the first year off with my second and that was so wonderful!!! He’s a charmer!
He’s gonna be a heart-breaker Stacey…LOL
That sounds sweet – and look at that big grin in the pic you posted! Don’t worry, you’ll always be Girl #1 in his eyes 🙂
That’s because he didn’t want his #1 girl to know and get sad. You’ll always be his #1!
I didn’t realize you were staying at home, god bless you sweetie. It’s a sacrifice in some ways, but such a gift for both you and Gage. I am so happy for you 🙂
