Pigtails

Horrible. 

Well, maybe not as bad as first thought. 

Just not sure what I think. 

Ok, I like them!

(Now take them out PLEASE)

Busy!

Thanksgiving to Memorial Day, busiest six months of my life. Seriously, like a total of six "free" weekends. And a "new" job. So until I can blog regularly again, enjoy:

B and G Visit

We had such a fun time when Bubbie and Grandpa came to visit last weekend. Thankfully, Las Vegas weather is AMAZING and that meant spending lots of time outside. In tank tops. In February. Yes!

Row Row Row Your Boat

I couldn't pick just one favorite video!

Family Love

Cannot get enough:

Now That It's Almost Valentine's Day...

Thanks to everyone who thought of us this past holiday season. Your cards and pictures filled our pantry door with happiness!

Mr. Bellaire

Ari is Mr. Bellaire!  You'll have to ask him if you want to know exactly what that is, but I am super proud of him even if I am out of the loop!

All I know is that it involved a Santa costume, a coconut bra, and some really good dancing.

Prepare to be entertained:

(Ari's the first one that comes out on the right side)

So proud of you, Ari!  I love you!

Growing Up

I guess you can say I've been nostalgic the last few weeks.  Leah is growing up so incredibly fast and learning so much all the time that I feel like I'm going to miss something.  I just stare at her, happy that I have the opportunity to watch her and take it all in.  I literally stare, and do everything I can to remember exactly what she looks like, sounds like, acts like right now, in these fast moments.

She always wants to be a big helper and carry her lunchbox and jacket, and she loves to help sweep and mop when I am cleaning (and sometimes when I am not... is she trying to tell me something about my floors?!).  I'll have to get a picture of that!

Leaving school

We'd been having problems with Leah throwing food, cups, etc. off of her high chair tray... basically making dinner time not fun for me and Brian.  So we took the high chair tray off, moved Leah to the table, and voila!  No more throwing! (Okay, so it's only been two days, and I probably just jinxed myself, but it's been much more pleasant!)

No tray necessary!

And as always, she loves playing with Presley!  I can't wait to see who the bossy one is going to be once they start interacting more with each other.

Coloring with Presley

I definitely need to take more video, but the stinker usually knows when it's on and isn't at 100% cuteness once she sees it.  I just want to remember her, like this, forever.

Thankfully, I did capture these cute mirror kisses:

Love my girl!
