Ten MORE Things Mommy Loves About Chloe Kathryn

I've also written Chloe's list in 2007, 2008, and 2009. I wrote the first one when she was three months old. How time flies!!

10. The way she thinks she's the same age as her brother.

9. The way she replaces her L's with W's: wovey, wap, Weapster, and Cindewewwa, and says hangaber, just to name a few.

8. The way she loves pink, her princesses, and is so girly.

7. The way she tells Daddy, "I'm not a Chicken Nugget; I'm a Chloe Bug!"

6. The way she sleeps with so many loveys that it's sometimes tough to find her in her bed.

5. The way she eats fruit like it's going out of style.

4. The way she wants to wear a dress everyday, even in the dead of winter.

3. The way she loves and misses her big brother, no matter how much he tortures her!

2. The way she chooses hair accessories that don't match her outfits, and refuses to change her mind.

1. The way she melts my heart, and lets me call her Sister Friend, Sissy, and Chloe Bug. Oh how I love her so! I am so proud to be her Mommy!

Ten MORE Things Mommy Loves About Sawyer Blake

I also compiled this list in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009. I can't believe how much my little man has grown!

10. The way he still loves George, even after numerous patch jobs, and smells his ears when he comes out of the dryer to make sure he's “just right.”

9. The way he'll play Lego Batman on Wii for hours if we'll let him.

8. The way he never meets a stranger and will speak to anyone about anything, much to our chagrin.

7. The way we still talk about his least and most favorite parts of the day while sitting in the rocking chair at bedtime.

6. The way he still wants to wear his long-sleeved flannel Christmas jammies, even during the summer.

5. The way he so freely gives out hugs and kisses, his lips landing in whichever spot he can reach.

4. The way he has so many little girlfriends: Sophia, Kyra, Rachael, Dharma, and Julianna. He's such a charmer!

3. The way he is so kindhearted. When Rosie went to heaven this year he wanted her to have his stuffed monkey, and he painted her a picture to put on her cloud.

2. The way he stated in his preschool graduation interview that Kit Kat was his favorite food, and he wanted to be Batman when he grew up.

1. The way he amazes me more and more each day. My little man-so smart, so energetic, and so all together wonderful! I love you, Bubby!!
