- When Emily wants to come out of her room (we lock her in, for her own safety, ha), she ::knock knock-knock-knock knocks:: on her door and sings "Elsa, you in deeeeer." ala Frozen "Do You Want To Build A Snowman." This happened at 3 am last night.
- Elizabeth is completely bullheaded and then a sensitive puddle of tears EVERY TIME there is confrontation with her.
- Josh gets large allergic reactions to bug bites and stings.
- Annie will play contentedly in the playroom for the longest time, as long as she is in there alone.
- Emily called me a "stupid poop" on Sunday. I have my work cut out for me.
- June and Josh both never ever wear socks. June and Josh's first choice of footwear are sneakers.
- Elizabeth is the only kid with freckles on her face.
- I still get an insane amount of joy from Annie... the baby high hasn't worn off yet and she's 10 months old.
- Josh is really good at picking out matching clothes. June and Elizabeth are not.
- Elizabeth was born with a really loud cry. Now, she just has a really (REALLY) loud voice. Her volume is just a few notches too high (and yes, her ears are fine)
-Josh fails his hearing test each year, but not by enough to be concerned. I am kinda concerned.
- Josh is forever my puzzle... one day I will figure him out, medically. When he was one I was convinced they would tell me he has cancer. I still don't rule it out, but I can't let it consume things. For now, his small medical mysteries are just monitored and noted in my mommy radar, and checked out with the doctor when necessary.
- Emily is speaking full sentences, but she's quiet when we are out and I'm often asked if she speaks yet. She speaks ALL THE TIME and her vocabulary is pretty deep.
- June can make friends wherever we go.
- Annie is showing such a comical and fun-loving personality lately. She's a little ham.
These small details are what makes up our life. I'm sure we can be seen as a school of fish, one no different from the other when we are out and about, but they are all so unique. It's cool to see and note the differences and quirks of each of them. These things get lost and forgotten in the course of normal life.

I love this list!!! It is the little things. I try (and usually fail) to write them all down.
The sneakers, no socks made me laugh. Both my kids can't stand any footwear except sneakers. And the rare times I convince them to wear sandals (or dress shoes), it must be with socks. Once this summer I got Michael to wear sandals for church with no socks. Small victories :)
