silly kisses

this morning you woke up by shouting “hi” and then stayed quiet and let mommy go back to sleep for a bit until you yelled “tugboat!” and you almost haven’t stopped talking all day so far. the newest thing is “uuuuuuuuuummm...” which you said while you were talking to daddy on the phone this morning. then later while reading you did it again and followed it with a very short and quiet “no.”

at lunch time you had some leftover fruit salad and ate it just like mommy would have when she was little: all the blueberries, then all the melon, then all the pineapple, then all the watermelon. in between bites you would hold your hands up to your ears and say “hi, hi, hi... no. bye... bye, bye. BYE!”

then after lunch you sat down to read and out of nowhere started sing-reading: read read babble babble toooooo meeeeeeeeeeeee! read read babble babble aaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAH read read elmo, elmo, elmo? meeeeee! read read uuuuuuummmm, no.

then when I put you in your crib for a nap, we had been giving kisses, and you stood right back up and held you mouth open saying “aaaaah” and kissed me “maaaa!” then flopped down to go to sleep. mommy needed one more kiss and you knew it.

extra silly today.
