oh yes! iZ has recently taught me the bob-signal for "Rub my back humommy!" ! especially in the tub during his bath, he *Loves* his sides/back rubbed and leans into my hand too ... it's pretty neat! *grin* ... if i stop too soon, he opens his eyes, gives me the bob-signal again and then shuts his eyes ... ahhhhhhhhhhh ... ig-nirvana .... last night after getting rubs for close to an hour (!!! spoiled baby!!), he climbed out of the tub into my arms and just melted + went limp cuz i kept rubbin' his back ... he perked right up when i whispered "want some Food?" ... heheheh ... nites like that make up for the mating season hormonal mood swings!
i'd think if Baby is so snuggle-loving now, you've got an excellent start to having a 5' snugglebaby too! (Kirby's 2' and not sure about this humommy stuff *at all*!!!! but he's only been here a month ...)
ps...
careful letting Baby lay on her side ... igs can't breath on their backs, don't know if they can very well on their side or not??? (they have no diaphragm)
