I Never Want to Forget

Heidi as I was putting you to bed tonight I thought about how much I never want to forget all of the things that make you special.  I so badly want to remember every detail but I know it's not possible because you have your whole life ahead of you and I know I'll want to remember all of those details as well.
So since I know I don't have the memory to remember everything this is a list of some of the things that I have loved about you.

*Seeing you come into this world and how the sight of you and hearing your little cry immediately flooded me with such joy, and then seeing your Dad tear up, this will always be at the top of my list :)
*The way you loved sleeping on my chest.
*The way you snuggled your little face into the crook of our arm and arm pit to go to sleep.
*Your cute little naked body. Ah I just can never get enough of you when your naked ;)
*Your cooing was mesmerizing.
*Your first laugh was oh my gosh adorable.  I just wanted to hear it over and over again.
*Speaking of laughing Kody gets the best laugh's out of you.
*How holding my finger in the car was enough to calm you down when you were sad.
*Oh my I love that you get a great big smile when you see a picture of yourself.
*The way you would gag on your food when you didn't like it.
*When you would chew on my chin.
*The way you put your binky in your mouth inbetween each bite when I'm feeding you.
*The way you would double fist your mouth because chewing on one wasn't good enough.
*The way you gasp almost every time you take your first drink from your cup.
*The way you enjoy dipping your hand in your drinking cup and sucking the water off of your fingers.
*How you raise your eyebrows, just about 100 times a day.
*The way you like to put your fingers in our mouths to feel our teeth.
*The way you growl when you are not getting what you want, or you don't like something.
*Your beautiful smile.
*Your amazing vibrant blue eyes, with your long eyelashes.
*When you are nursing and decide that you need your binky so you pop it in your mouth for a total of two seconds and then nurse for a couple of seconds and then pop your binks back in and how this goes on for quite some time.
*The way you act shy and cuddle into me when somebody says hi.
*The way you like to share your toys with Kody.
*When your gasps are too much to handle and you have to cough.
*The way you try to get yourself out of your car seat because we are going to slow.
*& The way you make our heart's burst with love everyday.

Man Heidi, Dad and I never knew that you would bring such joy into our lives.  We have loved every minute that you have been with us and are so grateful that we get to have your fun spirit in our family.  We absolutely love you to pieces and can't wait to keep adding to our list.
