Good Morning!

That's what my sweet girl said to me this morning. Her rapidly increasing vocabulary continues to amaze and amuse me daily. A few other recent additions- absolutely not! ridiculous! that's nasty/disgusting, oh my gosh, noisy, ohh! that's beautiful! and probably my favorite-I want my mommy!

Dress Up

Such a good sport. I'm sure he has many days of this to come.

She Did It!!!

I'm sure one day she'll kill me for this picture,
but I'm just so proud of her!
E has been peeing on the "big girl potty" daily for the last week or so!
So far I've not started any real method, she's just doing it herself. Looks
like we have a long potty training day in our very near future, Dora panties and all!

Baby Dolls

One of E's most favorite things is baby dolls. She
is the best little mommy, even if she may not be so gentle.
Notice baby's position in photo 2. I'm always amused to see what
else she pushes around in her stroller- it's hard to see, but this time it's a bubble wand.

Such a Ham!

This is totally fake, and kills me every time!

SeaWorld

Below is the face she wore most of the day.
Amazement and Joy- it was so precious!

We took a trip to Sea World on Saturday and it was awesome. What fun to watch our girl experience the wonder of sea life for the first time. To say she loved it would be an understatement. Yesterday she told us numerous times that she wanted to see dolphins and Shamu again! PS-if you're a FL resident you pay once and get to come back for the rest of the year. What a deal!

Cotton Candy

Gave E some Cotton Candy for the first time. She loved it and really wanted more!

New Tent

Take My Picture!

That's what she said and I did. J said this is our new "studio." :)

A New Place to Play

Attachment

This towel was worn all morning. Even came along for the ride to church.
Ah, toddlers!

Blueberry Morning

Left E in the highchair for a bit, watching a video while I got some work done. She was silent for a little too long. I came out to this-the pic doesn't remotely do it justice. Hair, hands and face covered in purple! Off to the tub!

And Strawberries Too!

E was looking far too cute not to photograph today.
The first is probably my favorite, but in an effort to learn the camera and take more pictures I ended up snapping about 100 shots. More favorites below...

Showing her grille-

thanks for that trick Uncle RyRy!

Cracking up

Love

I love this girl oh so very much! What a privilege to enjoy her each and every day.

Picture!

I'm not usually one for New Year resolutions, however I sort of have one this year. I've realized that I've become a real slacker with the camera. We've owned our current beauty for at least a year now, and I hardly know how to use it. The husband loves taking pictures, so I've become lazy and left it up to him. And I'm home with this little cutie all day. So, I resolve to take more pictures myself, I do love photography! And she loves to have her picture taken. This afternoon I was snapping away, and she got very upset when I was done. She started crying and just kept saying "picture." So sweet.
