I love the way my baby smells. Her breath. Her hair. Her little hands. Anyone else completely smitten by their little ones? What is your favorite thing about them?

I love the way my baby smells, (except when he poops) Everytime I look at him I feel in love haha. But one of my most favorite things about him, are his cute little feet, with his tiny toes. I just adore them and can kiss them over and over.

OMG I am so glad that I am not the only one, I am constantly sniffing my newborn. His toes, his neck, his belly, his toes, his hair, his fingers. I love holding him while he is sleeping and just breathing him in. I know this doesn't last for long and I want to remember every sound and every smell he has.

When my daughter was a baby, I absolutely loved the way she smelled, looked and felt. I loved her little feet and her hands and how she tried to grab my finger and how small in contrast her hands were to mine. Oh, how I miss those days. Sometimes at thirteen when she gets upset she tries to sit in my lap and hug me, but it just doesn't have the same effect hahaha!

I am a mother who enjoy my kid's smelling. He is just like an angel for me:) When he was just born and slept with me. I didn't want to sleep although I was so tired. It's just an amazing experience that such a little life was created by you. And I like to see his sleep. When he smiles in the sleep, I will sleep, too:)

Hi, i think all mothers just love the way their babies smell and that is the reason we know our babies so well too, isnt it:) For us mothers they will always be lovely smelling. Though my kids are grown up now but when they were younger, i made sure that if they smelt bad, as most kids often do, they were powdered and scrubbed well and looked good and adorable. But for us mothers,i think we just love them any way they are isnt it. They are loveable, just they way they are. Even now when my kids are grwon, i can still feel their lingering particular smell, that each one of them has always had with htem, i guessits allpart of their growing up, and those moments which we mothers never forget.:)

I love to smell my baby even without the baby lotion. I love her little feet. I always kiss on them. Lately her smile makes life worth living. She just started smiling back at me and it makes me so happy. I love her so much.

Babies breathe ~ it is the best! I remember playing little face-to-face games for hours because I just loved the smell of my son's breathe. I loved the way he smelled all over and just cuddled and snuggled him taking it all in, but there was something special about the breathe.

I do...I do...I do. Babies have a very distinguish smell to them. It's addicting once you have that feeling of goodness. I love watching babies reacting to people and things around them. To me, it's so amazing that the babies show preferences to the environment that they are in. Their likes and dislikes obviously show. They are God's little miracles.

Oh yeah, I remember holding my babies and smelling them.. My daughter, who is now 24 and has 2 of her own heard that up until they are around three, they have a certain scent that attracts people to them. (of course that is minus the dirty diapers)
