I love...

(and don't want to forget)
... when I am sitting on the couch and Colin cuddles up to me.
... how Colin squints his eyes when he gets shy.
... when Addison falls asleep in my arms.
... how much Colin loves on Addison.
... when Addison cries and Colin comes to fix it.
... how careful Suzi is around the kids.
... when Addison copies noises we make.
... how much Colin loves books.
... going on walks with our whole family.
... that Colin always wants to pull his wagon on walks.
... how go with the flow Addison is.
... our routines.
... watching "monkey's" before bedtime.
... that every time a school bus (or trash truck) passes, Colin yells "SCHOOL BUS!" (or "TRASH TRUCK!)
... that when Colin washes his hands he recites the alphabet, even when we aren't around.
... watching the kids sleep.
... that Addison will crawl after Colin and I while we are "racing" around
... having one-on-one time with each of my kids.
... how much Colin loves to play outside.
... the funny things that Colin says.
... seeing Addison try to play with Colin's toys.
... spying on the kids when they are in another room.
... when the kids both nap/have quiet time at the same time.
... that both the kids like the vacuum.
... how much easier (hope I don't jinx it) it is having two kids than I thought it would be.
... how normal it is having two kids.
... that on the "bad" days, it still doesn't compare to some peoples "bad" days.
... having a playroom.
... that Colin will randomly give us big hugs and kisses.
... watching Garet with our kids.
... having a boy and a girl.
... that Colin has red hair.
... the random times Colin talks about God.
... that Addison loves (and sleeps with) the blanket Colin gave her.
... Colin calls himself "Super Colin".
... how Suzi turns into a puppy again when she is outside.
... that Addison now says, "errrrrrr" when she is playing with a car, just like her big brother =)
... having conversations with Colin.
... that even in the touch times Garet and I are on the same team.
... this family of mine!
