"Late" Night Love Fest

Anni decided not to sleep through the night after all. Purely wishful thinking on my part, I'm well aware. When I went up to check on the girls around 9:30 (late in our house), Anni popped right up and decided she needed some quality time with mom and dad. So, we went downstairs and she settled very comfortably into Daddy's arms for a late night bottle. Now, I'm not what one would consider a "gushy" mom, but lately Anni does this thing where she rests her head against your forehead and looks you right in the eye, while smiling the biggest smile you've ever seen in your life. And it's enough to just melt your heart. Last night she did it with Dana while she was drinking her bottle. It was pretty much the cutest thing. Ever.

After a little playing and some reading, Anni went back into her crib with nary a protest. We could hear her in there, chatting with her animals...Abby throws everything from her crib into Anni's when they go to sleep. She woke up HUNGRY this morning, but I think she really enjoyed the solo mommy/daddy time last night. It doesn't happen often for her or her sister these days, but they really seem to like it when it happens!

It would appear that even though little Miss Anni went outside the evening routine, there was lots of love and cutest to appease Dad and Mom. Little girls have a way of melting your heart....
