Go ahead and call me a melancholic sap, but I LOVE living those days with my girl.
I want to breathe them in, forever tattoo them on my heart and mind.
With every single milestone she reaches, there is a new tinkle in my eyes, a new smile on my face, a new worry line on my forehead, a new kind of skip to my heart.
So this post is about remembering her the way she is right now.
At this very age where she's 14months going on 15years.
Because I'll never get them back, and because I already miss every single yesterday.
I never want to forget:
The deep conversations that we share:
"Ma-ma?"
'Yes, Giada'
"Ma-ma!"
'Yes Giada'
"Maaaa-mmaaa"
'Yes Giada'
"Ha-eeeeee. Hi."
Can we just say, dramatic much? I think so.
Or how she has mastered pinching anyone she's comfortable with...
And while doing it over and over, and OVER again, she'll say "OW" (said like Ouch without the 'ch'), as if it really hurts her.
I have lost many of arm hairs over this game of hers.
On a second thought, I would like to forget that.
Or how she's got perfect timing for calling her kitty while we're in the garage and our next door neighbor AND all of her young kids are conveniently watching...
"Titty! Titty! Titty!"
"Ma-ma!"
"CAT!"
Ummm.... "She's calling her cat. I swear!"
Oh, if only that were the first and last time she embarrasses me.
But it won't. This is just practice for the next 18+ years.
Good thing I love her.
Good, bad, and ugly, that girl has all my heart for all my life.

This age is the best! I remember trying to hold everything she did in my memory because I knew it would fly by :)
Titty-Titty!! That's the best, hilarious!!! I love when they start talking, it will keep you laughing. My brother used to call firetrucks fire-f*cks!
precious!!! If only there was some way to embed the memories forever in your head.
I am DYING over her hair! So cute styled like that, and the skirt? Oh my goodness, kill me with her adorableness.
How many different ways can I say that girl is cute?? I am running out of words! Miss Giada is darling and super stylin' in that adorable skirt!! :)
Toddlers this age sure give us plenty of funny stories to tell! I have a feeling that will only increase.
I love when you put her hair up in the little ponytail on top of her head. Too cute! She's just so sweet looking
She's just beautiful. Thank goodness, for our blogs so we can recall all these moments!
She is so so pretty! :) And the cat calling is sooo funny. Document every moment you can for her to look back on here one day!
They are so fun at this age! I know you just want to keep all these cute milestones and put them in a box to reopen :)
You are so right to cherish these moments. They go by way too fast. I remember hearing this very good advice when I had my first baby. I swore I would cherish every single moment with each of my kiddos. My oldest is going to be 16 next month and I can hardly believe it!!! It really does go fast.
Don't you love the crazy things they say??? For example, Krew calls trucks "cucks". You can imagine how that sounds when we're out and about and he sees a semi truck and exclaims loudly "WHOAH, BIG CUCK!!!"
those everyday moments are the best memories ever! what a beautiful little girl!

Your little girl is SO gorgeous, wow! What a stylish little lady! I feel the same way about days with my little one, they are incredibly precious. Sometimes I randomly scoop her up in my arms and snuggle her tight because I'm just overwhelmed with mommy love!
Ethan has definitely been playing the "mama, mama, mama" game lately. He thinks it's hilarious. Too funny about the cat! She is such a beauty!
