best. things. ever. volume 3

• How you sound like the little Italian boy from Life is Beautiful when you're looking for me, "Mama? Mama? Mama?"
• When you cast your secret spell on us from your high chair.
• When I can hear your explosions of laughter from upstairs when you're downstairs with papa.
• How you sit forward in your stroller, so that you can point out each and every ball, flower, rock, dog, heart, butterfly and various lawn ornaments you see on our walks.
• The fact that you even still enjoy being pushed in a stroller for long walks even now when you're completely mobile.
• Your patented bounce-bounce-bounce-fall-backwards move you do on the bed (except when you're teetering on the edge of the mattress or inches away from the steal headboard.)
• The way you stop and smell the flowers. Every flower. With a "shhhh shhhh shhhh --- mmmmmmmm."
• The incredible amount of empathy you already show. When you hear another baby crying, you look at me with sad eyes, hold me tight and put your head on my chest.
• Your electric toothbrush sound effect anytime someone brushes their teeth.
• When you sleep past 5 a.m.
