Pitter Patter

Time goes by way too fast!!
My children, who for the most part still DO NOT sleep through the night, who used to be locked up in a crib so they had to yell for me when they woke, but not anymore, those days are long gone!! I do still have my little Carter Bug for that :) Miss Alexee figured it out a long time ago, wake up, run down the hall, climb into Mommy & Daddy's bed & snuggle right in. Well, Braiden would always yell for me, however he must have been watching his Sissy one night, because lately I can hear him wake, then I hear his little footsteps running down my hall, he is also all boy so instead of sneaking right in, he slams into the door like it's a punching bag & then yells "MOMMY"! Sometimes I just lay there and listen to their little footsteps running down the hall for me, I have always loved listening to this noise, even though it means they are awake & out of bed AGAIN, the noise is like sweet music, I just lay there & listen. The other day a friend of mine said I should record that noise so I can always hear it. So, of course I'm thinking, but I get to hear it every night, silly me, one day they will grow up & they won't need their mama to soothe them back to sleep, so away will go the pitter patter of their little tootsie's running down the hall to me. That makes me sad! So hug your little ones & keep them close, because these days are going to be over before we know it! I am going to get out my video camera & get the Pitter Patter on tape, so that I will never forget that sweet little sound!!

  1. Sometimes when I am reading your posts I think I wrote it... We are so similar in certain ways it is truly scary!!

    Pitter patter is the best title... I can't wait for my Haylee Lynn to pitter patter her little butt into my bed.

    I think my favorite part of your whole post was when you realize you won't hear the "pitter patter" forever and maybe making a video isn't such a bad idea... You are so cute!
