HI my little Alley-cat!
When I say I love you, boy do I love you! You are the happiest baby on the block, still! You smile and laugh and cut up. You know exactly what you want when you want it and will tell anyone who will listen. Your meltdowns are very short as long as we can show you reason. If you do not like our reasoning, you will sob and sob no matter who is holding you until an acceptable alternative has been presented to you. Boy, you are going to rule the world one day if you keep on this track! You love playing by yourself but boy, do you love your Bubba! You copy every single thing he does and says. Your vocabulary is that of a 3 year old. It amazes me how well you talk.. and climb. You are a monkey! You climb anything. You are pooping on the potty and have really almost potty trained yourself completely. You love dancing! You shake that little booty and put one elbow int he air while looking to the ground and you dance backwards in a circle. You, got that move from your brother, however you have slowed it down and added a booty shake. It is cute! You always say please! You close your eyes and tilt that head and say “pleaseeee” so cute! You also do this cute “meow” with a head roll and eyes closed. It’s so cute! You are a sweet cute baby! Well toddler!
You love your Mama something fierce. You run every day with your arms outstretched to give me a hug when you see me. You leave in the mornings with a kiss and you always begin and end the day by grabbing my face with both hands tilting our heads so we match and are looking into each others eyes then you kiss me, super long, then you look again and give a biggggg hug. You are such an amazing hugger. Boy, I do not know what we did before you arrived. I cannot remember life before you. Well I do but it is a dream. It is like i lived it but it wasn't real. My life began all over again when you were born. You rushed into this world and have not stopped going. You would rather run than walk, would rather climb up then use a logical path, You go from the moment you wake, until your little body cannot go anymore. You will fall asleep anywhere you need too and you also have learned how to keep yourself up as long as physically possible. You love to snuggle! You sleep on top of me all night. You have to be touching me but you CANNOT be touching your brother. That pisses you off and you are our BOSS BABY! You definitely rule the roost currently!
You light up when you see your Daddy and cannot get to him quick enough! You do the same thing with Granddaddy too but those weeks when you haven't seen your Daddy, goodness, nothing can stop you and YOU WILL BE FIRST! Then you just want him to snuggle you over and over and over. You will kiss and hug him over and over. It is the sweetest thing ever! The love you two share makes me smile!
You light up the room and make anyone who comes in contact with you smile! You have the best facial expressions, and your little voice is so flipping cute! I am so thankful you are mine! You show us how much you love us every day.
Your Bubba is your light! Well him and A-ah and OO, and Babs and Emmy. But Bubba is your BFF. You two love doing things together and are double trouble! You either get him to do something for you or he is getting you to do something for him. Either way, you two conspire, then you execute your plans together! It makes this Mama's heart happy! I mean HAPPY! I hope you two always find yourselves teamed up together. You have an instant BFF and lifetime buddy! He loves you so much and you love him so much! You love playing by yourself too and can be completely happy but goodness the laughter, cries, screams, but mostly laughter you get from playing with Bubba is electrifying! You light up my smile immediately! You two snuggled on the couch, chair or bed, makes me smile! You two cooking together or arts and crafts together, makes me smile. There is nothing in this world you cannot do with your Bubba by your side! You two are going to rule the world!
You adore your "other Mama" aka "Emmy" She makes you so happy and makes you that yummy peanut butter you eat a gallon of a week! She spoils you and I love it! You love it too! She does so much for us and I am sooo happy that you love her as much as me. You always want to go see her, and Babs! You love your uncle! He loves you too, OMalley! He loves you so much! You two together would melt any icy heart!
Your cousins are so amazing with you too! A-ah is a little mama hen who tattoos you daily and OO treats you like her baby doll. They both adore you and you adore them! i hope your relationship doesn't stray too much as you all grow!
Fave Color: Blue sometimes green
Fave toys: Dinosaurs with mighty machines a close 2nd
Fave show: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
Loves to swing, climb, play in the water, snuggle, eat, dance, give hugs (stingy with those kisses), help clean up and read! Kid loves to read!
Fave food:
Chocolate, Broccoli, Yogurt, and really anything anyone is eating. Seriously kid, you will eat ANYTHING! I have yet to find anything you down right refuse. I mean you will eat lettuce and hot sauce if that is what someone else is eating!
You are demanding too. I have to keep a sippy cup of Milk in the fridge at your level so you can get it yourself.. Everything has to be "meself" "me do" So we have things at your level so you can do it! No one messes with boss baby! You can open doors now! Your life just got a bit more exciting! You love going outside yourself. No one else can touch that door!
You really are a talker. You repeat anything anyone says and you can answer any questions with a word. You even process statements like "If you take a nap you can go to Granddaddy's" and will do what is asked if he wants what you are offering. you talk back to the tv when they pose questions and are usually right! It is really amazing to see how you are growing and the areas you are excelling at!
We call you a lot of nick names but "Omalley" or ""Cassie O'malley the Alleycat" seem to be the most used! You remind us of a frat boy. It is fun imagining you all grown up. But try not to grow up too fast.
Kid you make us happy. You are so smart, you are so brave, you are so strong, you are so wise, you are so important to so many people, you are going to be patient, as you are already pretty darn patient for a 2 year old, you are going to be able to make lemonade out of any lemons life throws at you. I mean you already think just lemon and water is lemonade so I am giving you a good head start :D , you are so funny and caring and kind. You amazes me more and more every day. You are so very loved! I hope you never ever, ever, doubt how much you are loved! I may make mistakes as your mama, but I love you something fierce as well. A fire takes over my entire body when I think about how much I love you and your brother! You two are my world. I waited a long time for you both and I am so very thankful I did. You make me a better person. You make me want to do better ever single day. I want to teach you by doing. But above all I want you to never doubt how much you are loved!
I love you to the universe and back times infinity. I cannot even express how much I love you, sweet boy! You truly make me happy to be your Mama! I hope your birthday and this year are EVERYTHING you can imagine! I know it will be full of lots of love and laughter! Keep being your bright shining starry self! Your eyes have always lit up and you have always smiled with your whole face, which lights up a room when you walk in. Always be that positive, bright light presence in the world! The world needs more people like you!
Happy birthday to my last baby. I could not ask for a better baby to have been my last! I would have a dozen more if they were all like you! You truly have been a sweet, good, happy, baby! We truly do not ever want to do life without you! Your Daddy, Bubba, and Mama love you so much! Happy birthday OMalley! xoxo
Love
~Mama
