A Few Things I Want to Remember

I made a similar list for Micah around this same age and I have loved looking back at it and remembering the little things they do that are easy to forget. So here are a few things I want to remember about Jane right now.

:: You will start to dance almost as soon as you hear any tune.

:: The way you say Mama and Papa over and over and over.

:: How much you love to play peek-a-boo.

:: Your love of your blankets and how you pat it and say with your mouth closed "mmmmg".

::The way you talk without ever opening your mouth. Which is starting to change now.

::The way your eyes sparkle and are full of joy.

::Your running in place, or sometimes we call it quick feet.

::When you are tired or want comfort with your blanket you will hold it up to your nose and pull your lower lip in.

::How you like to snuggle when you wake up, though even that is starting to decrease now.

::Your fearlessness especially in how you like to fall from the couch to the ottoman and back.

::You love to put on your coat even if we are not going outside.

::If there is someone, anyone going outside you want to join.

::You like to put things away where they belong.

::How you say amen, "meh"

::When marching you will kick one leg out.

::You are so tickalish.

::"Ahh mmm" is your way of getting someone's attention, of saying you want something, in general it is your phrase for most things.

::You hack to say cold.

::You wake up with the craziest bedhead.

::I love that I am still your number one knowing that that will change one day.

::The way you like to put your feet on my cheeks after bath.

::Anything that is hot or even warm you will blow on it.

::The way you say hat, hot and socks all sound the same.

::When we say it is time to brush teeth you start sticking your tongue in and out.

::After you finish eating you crawl up on my lap whether I am done or not.

::You love the nursery rhythm book and always want to see the page with the ball on it. You will say ball nonstop until you have the book open to that page.

::If you are looking for something you say "a" then the person or object. So if you are wondering where Papa is you say "A Papa"
