baby girl has been in to puffs lately. baby food? not so much.
she also basically crawls. basically = she has the general movement down and definitely gets from point A to point B very quickly.
i was in the girls' room too lazy to go find olivia so i was calling her to come back to me. she thought it was fun to come find me in her room! PS- we always joke that olivia looks like she has a wig on because she has so much hair on her little munchkin toddler body. see what i mean?
ok, here i am, WITH my blankie!
snobby olivia
she loves to play "nigh-night/wake up." translation: pretend i'm sleeping and scare her when i "wake up." never gets old with little kids.
love this one.
worn out!
my brown eyed beauty
trying to steal sister's dora doll
i was feeling bad for my little teething baby the other night, so i got her up to hang out with us since she was screaming. you can't really see them, but she totally had tears in her eyes posing for a few pictures. still no tooth though!
she has been doing this half sit up pose for pictures lately. like, "yes? can i help you?"
V getting a little crazy at my parents house on sunday
too bad i can't take a good picture and get her whole head in it!
a few notes......
olivia (2 years, 1 month, 9 days) is loving her preschool, has decided she doesn't like to have her hair brushed anymore, but wants lots of sprays of detangler....aaaand... has gone on the potty like 5 times! i have started giving her showers once in a while to speed up the bedtime routine if it's getting late. so, the other night, i thought i'd see what she would do if i sat her on the toilet before i put her in the shower. i have never even talked about the "potty" with her and it would be just like her to completely flip out. well, apparently i don't know her all that well because then and every time since, she has gone within like 10 seconds and then flushes the toilet happily like it's no big deal. i guess you never know, but hopefully that's a sign of her willingness later on?? i have no need to or interest in potty training her yet, so for now we'll just "practice" before showers or baths.
violet (7 months, 4 days) is basically crawling, is very loud 24/7, sleeps terribly at night and looooves anyone who will play with her! she is not so into the baby food, but it probably doesn't help that i do things like let her try chocolate ice cream the other night. she literally screamed when i threw the plate away.
our schedules are crazy right now and time seems to be flying by. sometimes that's kind of depressing, so tonight i purposely crammed a few too many errands into the night (didn't get home to give the kids dinner till 7:45) just so tomorrow i wouldn't have one or two annoying things to do that would throw a wrench in our day. i get so sidetracked with what's on our calendar or getting our house 100% furnished/decorated that each day goes by way too quickly with way too few memories. i need to realize that it takes time to move in to a house and make it feel "lived in."
here's to maybe doing something fun tomorrow... preferably one that does not involve going to any kind of store??

Ok aaand I'm commented 10 minutes after you posted. I love these pics! Glad you're back in the groove.
Picturing V screaming when you threw away the ice cream was hilarious.
Can't wait to see more of the house. And yes, it takes forever to feel settled. It's like wedding thank yous... you are granted one year.
I thought Violet was wearing a tiny green hat in the second photo!
Feel free to rush and get your house finished before i come see it in 2 weeks! Just kidding. You know i'd be happy sitting on cardboard boxes as long as i got to be with y-O-u :)
LOOK AT THESE TWO! they are so cute. violet has got the cutest eyes, i love brown eyes (goldie has them too, love it). olivia has the best hair. is it weird that i'm jealous of your toddler's hair? looks like life is good for you guys. so happy!
