<p>Wanted to share on of my favorite things!! what is yours!!!???</p>
<p>On a lighter note, I love doggy paws…when they hang off the sides of the sofa, all crossed, or when they put them on your leg to get more pets, when our dogs are sound asleep and they are running in their sleep, with paws in motion in the air while flat on their backs…when they play with each other, gently pawing the others dog…i have one dog with both black and white nails, and one dog who is big but loves chijuajuas, and tries to touch them, but is a bit clutzy, and another who can catch a socccer ball in her paws…</p>
<p>just so sweet- a cross between animal and people, those little paws</p>
<p>The little tuft of hair that inevitably sticks up between the “double crowns” on the backs of my 2nd and 3rd sons’ heads. If their hair is short enough, you can only see the “swirls,” but like now, when both of them want to grow it out like their older brother’s, those little hairs just stick right up!!! And they’re <strong><em>SO</em></strong> dang kissable! When I ask my youngest for a kiss, he comes to me, turns around and tilts his head back so I can kiss his “doublers”!!! :D</p>
<p>awww cgm…I’m a dog lover too. Thought I was a cat person, but I was mistaken. My neighbor has a big golden retriever that tries to ‘touch’ my chihuahua too…it’s the funniest thing. Of course, my little chihuahua will have no part of it and gets all ‘snarky’ (lol) about the whole thing. The funniest thing is when they both leave their wet pawprints on the driveway…one set HUGE, the other a teeny tiny version of the same.</p>
<p>berurah - my son is doing the growing out thing too. OMG…I’ve never seen such vanity as when he fusses with that hair. My d, with her flat iron, has nothing on this boy. lol! I always thought the back of a baby’s head when they were sleeping was the most precious thing…irresistable. (Of course, that was back in the old days before we knew to sleep them on their backs.)</p>
<p>My fave thing…finally getting the fireplaces going. Perfection is a fireplace, a cold, rainy day and a good book.</p>
<p>When a baby REALLY laughs. I mean with all their little soul. There’s so much joy in that sound.</p>
<p>And for the record, I too always thought I was a cat person…until 10 years ago when I came to love a black lab, and now own a fox hound mix (who has the sweetest paws…and smile…I love when he curls up next to me and lets out a deeeeep sigh as he unwinds).</p>
<p>Love this thread. This is an easy one, the little stuffed saugages we call baby’s feet. Hard to believe my gangly boys once had toes I couldn’t resist kissing, especially after a bath when they’d wiggle their feet free from the towel. When they learned to walk, I loved the plop, plop, plop sound they’d make coming across the floor. Each step so deliberate. Wouldn’t want to come close to them now after a day in their sneakers, back when they were babies, nothing could be better!</p>

My 13 yr old dog still runs in his sleep. We laugh and wonder if he’s ever going to catch that squirrel he’s been chasing all these years.</p>

Same hair cut going on here too. Luckily for my oldest, his hair is naturally wavey, so getting ready is a breeze for him. The younger one had just a little wave that he tries to cultivate to just the right look. His favorite method is wearing a baseball cap and blowdrying the sides up. I offered my curling iron for the job - once. Evidently that’s a big no no; apparently there’s a manliness line that a boy just can’t cross regardless of the circumstances.</p>

LOVED the videos! You just have to smile when a baby laughs like that.</p>
<p>we called the toes corn on the cob…I loved doing that noise lip thing on their bellys…you know what I mean</p>
<p>I also love old couples- you know - 80 year olds still holding hands, going out to dinner, and laughing together…awwwwwhhhhh</p>
<p>And lets not forget little kids holding hands</p>
<p>And when my dogs find that one patch of sun on the floor, fall asleep, then wake up to follow the patch, my dog will get into the strangest places to feel that sun through the window</p>
<p>I loved those videos!!! Today I saw twin 2 year old boys at Blockbuster. They were SO cute! They were doing their “fancy dance” for me. I really appreciate moms who don’t mind middle aged women talking to their babies!</p>
<p>I love the nape of the neck of all my kids, particularly the littlest one-- that small hollow just under the base of the skull that exists for kisses.</p>
<p>We have a cat who comes when we call her name. Probably well trained through treats! She will stand on her back paws at the table to get a bite of whatever we are eating. She’s totally spoiled. If I have tuna salad for lunch, it’s half for mommy, half for kitty. She’s our baby!</p>
And they’re <strong><em>SO</em></strong> dang kissable! When I ask my youngest for a kiss, he comes to me, turns around and tilts his head back so I can kiss his “doublers”!!! :D</p>
