Look a'me!

I have said it once and I'll say it again, Millie is just too darn cute! I know Harrison was too darn cute, then the twins came along and they were too. However, with time, those little twinges you get when they do something adorable seem to fade a bit, the memories of every cute little giggle, saying or expression fade until we are only reminded on video or picture. So, I know my others were cute too, but now we are embracing the moments of Millie being and adorable toddler!

Her new thing is to do something daring or spectacular by her standards and then say "look a'me!" over and over again. Two nights ago at the dinner table, we had two chairs pushed side by side and she intentionally put one foot on one chair and one foot on the other (keep in mind there was no gap) but for her it was HUGE to be on two chairs at once and she just got the "I am hot stuff" look on her face and looked at Tom and said "Look a'me!" then looked at me and said "Look a'me!" over and over again! Forget the conversation we were having or the dinner in front of us, it just reminds us of how fleeting these moments are at this age, in a week it won't be "Look a'me" she'll be saying it right and it won't be as cute, or the little things like standing on two chairs at once just won't cut it for her anymore.

So, in the mean time, I will stop and melt as her little voice proudly demands attention and demands that we "look a'me!"
