They Call Him "Boy With Crazy Arms"

Since Rooney was in utero he has always done this thing with his arms. I call it "Crazy Arms" and what it is, is when Rooney is laying down, his arms are constantly moving and spiraling around. He doesn't do it all the time, but he tends to do it when he is tired or hungry. I was taking pictures of Rooney today and when I was editing I realized the photos captured his crazy arms. I wanted to share this with you (and the pictures are just pretty cute):




When I bounce him to sleep, during the day or at night, I have to use his arm as a gauge to whether Rooney is asleep or not. While I am bouncing him, his right arm is always flailing about. Sometimes he throws it around wildly, other times, he tries to see if my lips are detachable. Although his eyes may be closed, you have to watch the arm, because even though his eyes appear closed and Rooney is asleep, he is not truly asleep, until he finally rests his arm.
