Sweet Sweet

No matter what my day is like or what kind of mood Mallory is in, I love being a mom & more importantly, her mom.  Today though, happened to be one of those days where she was in the sweetest mood ever. 

She will look at me with this sweet little face {with the dried ketchup around the mouth & the birthday cupcake hair bow that she wanted me to wear} & say 'kisses mommy.'  That's when my heart melts.  Sometimes, she will also run up to me & say 'hug!'  I'll take either a hug or kiss anytime. 

I was folding clothes & Mallory kept pointing at something saying 'sigh sight, sigh sight, sigh sight' over & over.  Finally, I realized she was pointing to & saying flashlight.  I gave it to her & she proceeded to sing into it like a microphone - 'Gooo Agooo {Diego} Gooo'  while dancing.  Too funny.  If Patrick was home he would have remembered to get the video camera.  I never think about it, until it's too late.

Here is Mallory sitting in our blue chair when she was 3 months old:

Tonight, 15 months later, as I was washing dishes I looked around for her & she was sitting in the same chair.  She had crawled in it all by herself & was sitting there watching tv like such a big girl.  When she sees me looking at her.  She says 'Mommy, chair' & motions for me to come sit with her.

Patrick's dad is always calling Mallory 'Sweet Sweet'.  I think the name fits.
