Elephant Memory
Matthew, there are so many things about you that I don't want to forget and I am sure there is so much that I am already forgetting. I want to ingrain every second with you into my brain, I wish that were possible. Without further ado, here is a fascinating list of things about you that are completely, totally awesome:
- The way you shrug your shoulder and smile your big toothy grin.
- When you talk and coo at your mobile in your crib. The smiles you give your mobile are hilarious.
- The sounds you make: Agoo, aaahhh, and the little sighs you emit.
- I love when you wake up from a nap, tuck your chin downwards and look around like a deer caught in headlights.
- Your wrinkly baby neck is perfect, and even though it sometimes smells like baby throw-up, I love to sneak in and kiss you all over that wrinkly neck. Also, there are times I think you look like a turtle, and it makes me smile.
- When we do baby sit-ups, and you want to stand, not sit.
- I love that once you are standing up, holding onto my hands, you try and stealthily sneak my finger in my mouth and gnaw on it, as if I won't notice that you are slobbering all over me.
- You are so talkative, I want so badly to engrain your baby "ahh"s and "oohh"s in my mind, I never want to forget how cute you sound.
- When you bicycle your little legs.
- The first time you laughed out loud. Your Papa was holding your hand, and making funny faces and you started cracking up. Neither your Dad or I have been able to get you to laugh as hard as that first time, but we are still trying.
- I love when you are done eating and you turn away from me, arch your neck, and stretch your head back. Occasionally you will lift one arm in the air to stretch, you scrunch up your face and take a deep breath, and you look adorable the entire time.
- Your chubby feet are perfect for me to snack on, and I routinely play "this little piggy" with you so I can see you smile.
- Right now you aren't laughing a terrible amount, but you give out smiles all the time. Your wide, open mouthed grin slays me every time I see it.
- You are such an observant baby, and you need to look around and study a new place before you feel comfortable to start talking. It's amazing to already see your personality emerging.
- The fat wrinkles around your knees and thighs, love them.
- I find it hilarious that when I give you a kiss, you open your little mouth because you have no idea what I am doing.
- I love your fuzzy head, especially after a bath when your hair is particularly soft and spikey.
Matthew bring out the best in me, thank you so much for coming into our lives. You are such an easy going, happy baby. People are constantly commenting about how good you are. Your Dad and I just smile and agree, you are an amazing little boy. It is virtually impossible for me to describe how much you mean to me. I love you baby boy!
