I feel broken most of the time.
I think that it's the poor sleeping.
But there are so many things that I want to write down. Things that the kids say and do. Things that I sadly know that I will forget, if for a time until I come across a picture, video, or blog post. Then I'll go "Oh yaaaa... I forgot they did that."
Alice
- How she's so damn clever and figures out 8 steps ahead when I've only mentioned that there are 2
- How proud she is of riding a two wheeler
- How much she conspires with the boy next door to get into trouble
- How she asks to do "na na na" dancing but she's just too heavy for me to hold her with one arm and it breaks my heart each time I say no
- How she's looking forward to going into grade 1 and how she's been working so well at her feelings
- How much she loves her siblings
- How quickly he seems to pick up every sport
- How he still won't dress himself
- How he'll ask "Who made dinner?" and when told will turn to that person and say "Oh thank you for for making such a nice dinner!" and then promptly not eat any of it
- How he still doesn't sleep, but he's a snuggler
- How he will do almost anything his sister asks as long as he's not under duress
- How everything is a sword or gun. Sometimes both
- How fast he is on his BB8 bike (with training wheels)
- How he still can't eat many textures and ends up spitting them out
- How much he loves his siblings
- How she can sign things like "more", "all done", and "milk"
- How (I swear) she says "tank koo" to me
- How she won't fall asleep in her crib, I have to cuddle her to sleep
- How she won't stand or crawl, but bum scoots around
- How she doesn't like soft toys, only hard toys / books. Will fall asleep clutching them
- How she doesn't want to be held, but if I'm on the ground she'll scoot over and try to get into my lap by putting feet first and pulling herself in
- How she does the eye bat, head tilt smile like Alice did and it's so damn cute
- How much she loves her siblings
