one of the cutiest things i recall from when alivia was a baby was the "fake cough". well that and all the kisses she gave. she would go at any and every thing with an open mouth giving kisses.
anyway, i still have a somewhat lingering cough from the cold i had a few weeks ago. today i was getting all the kids in their seats after school and sundenly had a bit of a coughing spell. i would cough and then i would hear a faint little cough come from nataleys way. at first i thought she was really coughing herself, so i went over to test it out. i coughed and then sat there and watched to see what she would do. it made me laugh cause i could really see the effort that was made to get that cough sound out ... so, i can officially say nataley mimics coughs now! and it still is just about the cutiest thing i ever did see!
i also do need to say that this child is crazy about hair! short, long, furry.... it doesn't matter!
alivia has gotten to the point where she trys to avoid walking past nat cause she knows that the little hands will reach out and put a death grip on her curly locks.
i say it at least ten times a day but every child of mine is so different. they each have their individual things that crack me up (and their own things that make me want to rip out my hair). nataley is my first hair puller and thumb sucker. levi was always obsessed with balls! every kind of ball would amuse him for hours at this stage. if it wasn't round he didn't give one hoot about it. alivias obession was putting everything to her mouth. chirs, books, hair ties, and if she couldn't bring it to her mouth she would bring her mouth to it. didn't matter what it was it went into the cave on her face.... i quickly learned how to remain calm and stick my fingers down her throat to pull out whatever little piece of something she had in there!
nataley is getting too big too fast for me....
makes me wonder, maybe just one more.......... maybe?
