Sweet Dreams...

Last night, little Addy who is now 20 months old, took about 45 minutes to fall asleep.  She wasn't crying, or throwing any sort of fit.  In fact, it was one of the most entertaining 45 minutes I've had in a while!  I was sitting in my bedroom relaxing to a cup of hot cocoa and reading a book on my kindle when I heard her tiny little baby/toddler voice start singing. 
 
All of my older girls LOVE the movie Frozen, and sing the songs all the time!  Rachel can really sing "Let it Go!" pretty well, and sings it quite a bit.  Well, little Addy who is just starting to talk started singing it last night.  So just imagine, a tiny little voice who can't even say all the words singing...
 
"Let go!  Let Go!  (insert baby gibberish here)  Anyway!" 
She sang that line over and over while I put my book down and sat in my comfy chair listening and loving it with all my heart!  I didn't dare peek around the corner to see her because I didn't want her to stop!  Then, she went into something else.  Her two latest words are "yellow" pronounced "lellow" and "pink."  She knows these two colors now.  Last night she started singing...
"Lellow......PINK!!!  Lellow.....PINK!!!!  Lellow....PINK!!!" over and over and over.
 
Then she'd go right back into the Frozen song, and then back into her colors.  She was singing at the top of her little lungs...except for when she sang "lellow..." then she would get really soft, and then belt out "PINK!!!"  in a really loud and excited voice. 
 
I was seriously having silent laughing fits...it was just too funny.  Then, all of a sudden.  Silence.  No humming.  No singing.  No squeaking of crib or mattress.  Then I dared to peek.  She was laying down sideways in her crib with her cute chubby bare feet up on the siderails and arms flailed out to the sides, mouth halfway open.  She looked like she had fallen asleep mid "Let Go!"  Too funny.

Before I thought of taking a picture to document this cuteness...I got her all straight in her crib and snuggled her up in her blankets.  But then I just had to sneak in and snap a picture so I would remember this night.  She is such a little sweetie!

So so sweet! It's hard to remember those little moments when they grow up so I say good on you for taking the time to document it here. I just love those moments. They go by too quickly.
