Ridiculously Annoying or Incredibly Sweet?

Noah has been so "clingy" lately. This debate started in my head last night as I was curled up in a ball inside Noah's crib. I was so frustrated because it was midnight and wanted to be in bed with my husband. He usually sleeps great, but this night he wanted me near. Annoying,..yet as I was curled up in the fetal position in his tiny crib (worried the springs were going to pop) he kept rubbing his face up against mine and it was possibly the sweetest mommy moment ever. When ever I tried to "sneak out" he would nudge closer. Melted my heart.....

So here are the pro's and con's to "clinginess".

CONS
-Can't get anything done! Dinner, shower, cleaning,..you name it. Impossible!
-By the end of the day I feel like I was overwhelmingly busy but got nothing done (to show for).
-It's hard to leave him with other people, ESPECIALLY the gym daycare people. :(
-When he cries when I come back to get him (like I abondoned him).
-Takes husband/wife time away :( This is the worst one.

PROS
-You feel like the most important person in the world.

-Great excuse for cuddling up with baby for a afternoon nap.
-It only lasts a few short years and then they can't get far enough away from you.

-Family time with mommy, daddy, and baby is the best! When he's getting attention from both of us we are ALL ear to ear grins and giggles.

-The hugs when I finally give in to holding him close are the best! His grasp is so tight!

-It an awesome feeling when someone you don't particularly care for has him and he reaches for you like you are his saviour. (That's a horribly smug one isn't it!?) :)
-When the crying subsides, you know you are the one that gently calmed their fears.
-Simply,...No one else will do (maybe daddy)! ;)

So obviously the pros out way the cons. Just had to remind myself. :)

Feel free to add to my list....
