Remembering the little things

Mommy post - I didn't want to forget all the little things that the babies used to do that are already in the past because they are growing up so fast!  I remember Ellie smiling and turning her lips upwards when we put the burp cloth around her neck.  She knew it meant her bottle was coming.  I remember her little white spots on her nose when she came home from the hospital that went away after a month or so.   I remember how Ellie used to keep her little hands in fists and how daddy thought that was so cute until we learned it was a developmental milestone for babies to open their hands. Also, Ellie cannot keep a sock on to save her life!!  I remember Grey's ooh-la-la face with his lips pursed in a little cheerio smile. I remember how he hated being under the bilirubin lights at the hospital with those styrofoam sunglasses on - poor little baby would cry cry cry - and I felt so helpless because I couldn't pick him up to soothe him.  I remember when they came home how small they were, we could carry each one on the underside of our forearms. I don't want to forget these little things as already I feel like they are growing up so fast.
