midnight wild

I made Tim get the camera last night. Just another midnight cuddle session, my very favorite thing. When Calli wakes up, playing loudly in her crib, as we're brushing our teeth I always grab her and pull her into our bed. Last night I wanted to remember everything about her. Her sweet, gleeful smile as she knows she shouldn't get to be in mommy's bed in the middle of the night. Her crazy, curly hair that's been tackled by all the blankets. Her joy every other minute that spills over from smile to full volume squeal in the silent house. I try to cuddle her tiny frame but she can't be overpowered. She is more wild at night then in the day. And then when Tim says it's time for bed I cradle her tightly and tell her it's nigh nigh time. She's not thrilled but she seems to understand and takes her blankey in her hand and her thumb in her mouth and lies calmly in her crib with a smile. I don't want to forget a moment of our midnight friendship. I LOVE my baby girl!
