Sweet Things

I just couldn't help myself. :)

Some sweet things I really LOVE about Mattilee that I don't want to forget:

*I love to catch her "loving" her stuffed animals. We taught her to do this a while back but it's so precious to see her hugging and rocking her animals and dolls without being prompted.
*I love that when I carry her she always holds me too. She wraps her little arm around my arm and holds it.
*Her soft skin. I knew her skin would be soft but it's really like silk and I just can't touch it enough.
*When I put her to bed at night and walk into her dark room, she touches my face with both of her little hands and brings her face right in front of mine like she's trying so hard to see me.
*How she will lay on me with her head on my chest or shoulder. She'll do it when we're sitting down, rocking, or on the way to her bed. I know I'll miss this when she's too big.
*How her face lights up every time she sees me. I KNOW this won't last forever.
*How she claps and bounces every time she hears music. So cute!:)
*While she crawls she kind of sways from side to side.
* How she has her own precious little language and she "talks" ALL the time, we just have no idea what she's saying. She'll talk for so long it seems like a paragraph and sometimes she "sings" to herself. :)
*Her little laugh! It's the sweetest sound in the world and how easy it is to make her laugh.
