Today you and I spent most of the day just laughing and cuddling one another. You weren't interested in toys today, but instead just wanted to make noises and hang out with mommy (and daddy when he came home). You seem to crave attention lately. I always feel like we should be doing something to stimulate you, but it was clear today that all you needed was some quiet talking, lots of smiling, and many many kisses.
It occurred to me to make a list of some of the things you do that I adore. I hope I can remember them.
You giggle now. Sometimes all I have to do is kiss your face, sometimes swing you around, and other times just saying "moose moose moose" will make you laugh. I never get tired of that giggle.
You like to drink out of cups or water bottles. After you take a swallow, you make this "awww" sound. It is adorable.
Lately you've been doing this humming thing when you suck in your lips and make sounds. It looks like you're eating peanut butter.
When I drum my fingers on your lips you stick your little chin out and open your mouth in a little smile.
When we hold you up in the standing position, your hands come up to balance yourself. You almost always smile when you are standing. It is very cute. Sometimes I let you stand up on your changing table and you grab the winnie the pooh mobile--either yelling or laughing.
You always wake up in a good mood. Sometimes you lay in bed between us and just yell up at the fan. You love to be touching both your daddy and I.
We have this little swing in the kitchen with a mobile over it. We hung this banana toy on the mobile and you like to grab it when it passes by screaming the hole time.
I just can't describe all your facial expressions, but sometimes you just look into my eyes with a smile on your face for what seems like hours. It makes my heart melt. You are so charming.
Well that does it for now, but I'll add as I think of things.
BTW, you turned over from your belly to your back by yourself tonight. I was so happy to see that you still had it in you!
