Kickin' it Old School

One of the classic pictures of childhood...



A few random tidbits about our little love:
  • She's been giving kisses all on her own. The last time was in the midst of a meal with a food-covered face, but it was totally worth it!
  • She loves avacados, sweet potatos and squash, but doesn't really get excited about bananas.
  • She's been a wonderful sleeper for the past couple of months (knock on wood!), sleeping from about 6:30 pm to 6:00 am straight and taking two solid naps. Yay!
  • She is a snuggler. Whenever she hears "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" (her bedtime song) her head hits the nearest shoulder.
  • After her early-morning wake up, Ben brings her to bed with us to give me a chance to wake up. While snuggled between us, she pats our backs, faces, and talks in sweet baby chatter.
  • Library story time has become a favorite outing. She lights up when everyone sings "Twinkle, Twinkle" and loves playing with (more like watching) the other kids.
  • We've got a little bookworm on our hands. She will sit for about an hour listening to me read book, after book, after book...
  • She's become much more brave lately, happily going to others, and loving the church nursery.
  • Her favorite hang out in the house is standing (with help) on the window ledge and loooking at the mountains, and birds, bunnies, cars, and construction workers (who occasionally wave to her) go by.

This is such a beautiful picture. She looks so focused and determined in a way. XXX AJ
