Mini Mommy

Lately G has been pretty fun to watch.  Her imagination is getting bigger.  She is girl all the way in what and how she chooses to play.  She loves to play with babies and stuffed animals.  She loves to play the "Mommy" she kisses them, wraps them up and puts them to bed.  She even puts them in time out.


She ran up to me the other day saying, "Baby no!" and shaking her little finger.  I couldn't figure out what she was doing, then she showed the time out mat.  Made me laugh and quickly grab the camera.
Then today I found this...



Two sweet little baby Jesus' in time out, one from our Little People nativity set and the other from our advent calendar. So funny!  I had to document this for when she gets older.


It is incredibly fun to watch her grow and to see the world through her little eyes.

Daddy's School

We finally took a family field trip to D's school the other day.  I have been wanting to do it for a while now, and I am so glad we finally did it.  Now the kids can know where he is when I say "Daddy's at school".


UW is a really nice campus.  This is the big "W" at the main entrance of the campus.


T just wanted to run up the stairs and go in the elevator.


 The classrooms were closed (it was Sunday) but this is just right out side his classroom.


 Top ten...it better make this worth all the time and money.



He took us to all the places he visits when he is there...including the vending machines.  They were excited to pick out some candy.  T is practicing raising his hand for when he starts school.  He is so excited to go to school one day.  So he can be just like his Daddy.  When D talks about school T asks if he learns about the letter A.  So funny!  D is one week away from being done with is first quarter, only 8 more to go.  He is managing pretty well so far. I am so proud of him and all the hard work he puts in.  We are all looking forward to a few weeks off.

Finally...


 I have been waiting almost two years to be able to put G in pigtails and I can finally do it.  Her hair is growing slowly but surely.  And it makes me so happy!!  I have always looked forward to doing my little girl's hair and so far there hasn't been much to do with it.  She never lets me put headbands or cute flower clips in her hair, they would come out just a couple of minutes after I put them on.  But this little piggies she can't take out (though she has tried) after a couple of days of wearing them I think she has gotten use to it.  She evens gives a little smile when you tell her how cute they are. I think she is so adorable and these little pigtails just put her cuteness at a whole new level!
