Days to Remember


Zane is now 13 months old and quite the inquisitive little mover and shaker! He's also definitely fast approaching that hilarious/not hilarious toddler stage of:

If it's open...close it.
If it's closed...open it.
Take it...toss it.
Want it...don't want it.
Don't want it...want it.
Start to laugh...start to cry.
Start to cry...can't keep from laughing.
Want up...but want down.
Want down...but want up, too.
If it's on...take it off.
If it's off...try to put it on.
etc.

A 13 month old's constantly revolving emotional door can be somewhat trying, but at the same time, we are just loving the mustering up of cheesy grins on command, the clapping hands with proficient zest, and the thrill of the always surprising peek-a-boo!

My all time favorite, though...the best ever...is the "hug-me-hold-me, tuck-the-hands-in, I'm-tired-and-soooo-content, snuggle" at the end of every wild and woolly day...These are days that I never want to forget!

Ok, I love the "tuck and snuggle"! Both the boys did it....Heath still, not so much Jack any more....where do they get that from. Too cute! Heath did it just last night...it's true, it's the best! And kudos to Colby for resisting the temptation to yell at Zane while he was trying to take Colby's toy! Nice!!!! I've never seen my boys with such self-control...to get it on tape is extraordinary! ;) Love you guys!
