Sometimes I dream about the days when my kids will be a little older. The kind of days where I feel like I have a spare moment to myself & can just catch my breath for a minute. But more often than not I find myself wishing that I could somehow bottle up these moments that are happening right now & save them for a day down the road when I don't have babies to hold & chubby cheeks to kiss. Because there really are so many times where I stop & try to permanently imprint on my mind the way Ruby's voice sounds in combination with her animated expressions as she tells me something important. Or the way Noah looks up at me with those big brown eyes & muscles his way into my lap because he just needs to be closer to me. Those are the things I hope to remember forever.
My absolute favorite thing lately is watching these two be such good friends. Ruby now wants Noah to sit right by her any time they're eating & she loves to feed him & get him whatever he needs. And Noah will eat anything that Ruby gives him & kind of seems to love it as much as her. Can this stage please last forever?!
Noah is now obsessed with this blanket & sometimes doesn't want to come out of his crib after naptime because he's too busy rubbing his face all over it. And he's getting really close to becoming a full-time walker. I'm convinced there is nothing cuter than a baby learning to walk.
Ruby got this dinosaur puzzle for her birthday & probably does it about 5 times a day. She can now put it together really fast all by herself & is super proud every time. That girl is a smart one.
And look at that mischievous little face. He has the worst poker face & I can always immediately tell when he's been up to something he shouldn't be. And I'm a total sucker for this little boy. It's a wonder I haven't eaten him up.
