Things I Don't Want to Forget

The way you point and say "this?" at all of the same things you walk by when we go outside every single time, and we tell you what it is.

The way I say a random line from one of your books and you go and pick out the exact book I'm reciting from.

The way you back your little booty up to me and sit in my lap, as if I were your personal chair, while you're watching tv.

Your cheese face, when you see a camera pointed at you.

How you've started falling asleep on our shoulders or chests again before we put you to bed. I just love the feeling of your head against me, it reminds me of your newborn days.

When we say the name of an animal and you say the sound each one makes.

When you run up to me and give me a hug and a kiss, those are the best :)

How you call us "mimi and daddy".

When you've had enough of your juice and your meal, but I want you to eat a little bit more, you say "no" in your cute little voice and turn your head to the side.

Things I Don't Want To Forget...

The way your cheeks are all soft and warm after you wake up from a nap

The way you grab my finger when you're drinking your bottle

The way you laugh when I make faces at you

The way you snuggle up right into my shoulder when I let you lay in bed with me

The way you're so quiet in the tub and you look up at me like it's the best bath in the world

How you love to "talk" and coo in the mornings. You're definitely a morning person

Snuggling with you after your feedings, all cuddled up in my arms

The little sounds you make when you suck on your pacifier

Watching you fall asleep as your eyelids get heavier and heavier and you smile right after they finally close

Your new baby smell. So sweet and comforting

That precious smile of yours. It makes the whole world melt away

Love,
Tiare
