That is totally normal. My recommendation:
這很正常。我的建議是：
Be chill. The woman (your wife; his mom) played a much bigger role than you did in his early life, so you are pretty much screwed if you expect an even playing field for the first few years.
冷靜點。這位女性（你的妻子，他的媽媽）在他早年的生活中扮演的角色比你重要得多，所以你幾乎是在鑽牛角尖，即使你想在最開始的幾年作爲遊戲場也不會讓他更喜歡你。
As a rule, you should pretty much let him be with his mother whenever he wants; that's the best way to build trust.
一般來說，只要他想，你就應該讓他和他的媽媽在一起，這是建立信任的最佳方式。
When you are with him, do a really good job of taking care of him -- feeding him, changing him, putting him to sleep, etc. Get him to trust that you're competent and confident.
當你和他在一起的時候，你就要好好照顧他——給他餵飯、給他換尿布、哄他睡覺等等，讓他相信你是個稱職且自信的爸爸。
When you are with him alone, you should be able to distract him quickly from thinking about mom.
當你和他獨處時，你應該讓他能從對媽媽的想念中轉移注意力。

It's normal for children to be more attached to one parent than the other at various times during their development.
在孩子的成長過程中的不同階段，他們會更親近父母中的一方是很正常的事。
At times it will be for one parent, and later, without any rhyme or reason, it can switch to the other parent.
有時他們更喜歡父母中的一位，接着莫名其妙地，這份喜歡可能會轉移到另一位身上。
As long as there's not something in your relationship with your son that might be causing the distance (ie, lack of time together, lack of affection, anything that might be effecting a strong bond forming), then don't worry, your time will come!
只要沒有發生什麼會疏遠你們父子關係的事情（比如缺少共處的時間、沒有感情，任何可能會影響你們之間形成牢固聯繫的事情），那就不用擔心，你會有機會的！
