I have decided that I'm taking a different approach when I write on my blog. Not too different, but as I look back and read older posts I realize that I haven't documented all of the little stuff that goes on with being a mom of 2 little ones. For example:
the other night cole woke up at 2AM! he is such a good little sleeper usually but when I heard his cry i knew he needed me to come and get him. I picked him up, rocked him and hummed to him but he wanted alittle more. I gave him some water in his sippy cup and then went out to the couch and just sat there listening to him swallow in the dark. After he was done he just laid down in my arms and let me rock him to sleep. I think I sat there for another 10 minutes just running my hands through his hair, tracing his cute, little face with my finger and lifting him up to my cheek and just smelling him. these little moments make waking up at 2am worth it.

So true. During the day I can't wait for nap time. Then at night, I want to go hold her and love her.
Great approach to the blog. What you don't like bragging about how darling your kids are...? :)
(mame)...heehee
it's true, we forget the little things like that, even if it is at 2 am. I think thats why it so fun being grandparents cause as parents you are so worried about every little thing, that you forget things like that, but as grandparents, you don't have to worry about the raising the child thing, you just do all the fun stuff and fill them full of sugar and anything else they want, yea. Enjoy it why it lasts, it does go in a blink of an eye. love to you
Love it Annie, good idea! It's so important to remember those moments instead of the ones where we feel like we're running around like a chicken with our heads cut off! :)
Thanks for the reminder. If you could keep the upbeat comments coming, that would be great.
That was so sweet and so true.
After Carter goes to sleep, I go in and hold him for a minute almost every night before I go to bed. It's such a precious and rare moment when they'll actually hold still for a little while, (because they have no choice :).
That Cole is such a cutie!
SOO sweet! i really wish i documented the little things too! it is soo great to look back, when they are even just a little older, and think,. Oh my gosh! you use to do that!? or you were a baby once. it is soo sad how old they get and how fast they get big!
such a cute story by the way!!!! love it!
