Lego

So, I've had pictures of Lily playing lego on here before, but I have to add a story now. She gets into it and likes to look through things and find neat stuff. Well, one morning Youssef saw her hold this up and heard her say, "Whats dis? Oh, Coo! Munkee!"

It made me laugh and I new I had to take a picture of the monkey for scrapbook pages to go with the lego pictures.

Another comparison...

And again the first was from April and the last one was just yesterday (of Renna of course.) You can't tell so much how she's grown in this, but she's sitting on my hip and couldn't do that before. It really helps to have the sling with her on my hip too. She definitely loves the sling! My little pouch baby likes to be able to see me. Today when I had to mop the kitchen she was in her "captains" chair and when I left for a second to get the mop she started to fuss (when she was perfectly quite and content before) and reached her little hand out to me and did the pout lip. It touched my motherly heart.

Pampered

As you can see, Lily wanted her nails done... while wearing her princess dress (she's really been into dressing up and twirling and princess things a LOT lately. It's pretty cute!)

That one is sort of the "I'll just pick another color without anyone looking" look... I could only put so many colors on her toes and fingernails though!

Her toes are different colors of red, but you can't tell in the picture.

This last one doesn't quite match the others, but she'd found the mask thing that her Grammy had left here and loved wearing around the house (and over her eyes too!) with her new nighty and other attire as well. I thought it looked cute so I took a picture of her... she's being a little goofy in the picture and jumped off dramatically after I took the picture.

Almost 5 months!

The first is when Renna is about a month old and just today I was doing laundry and got another picture of her FOUR months later.. she looks so different! She's getting so big!

Fairy Princess

Lily wanted to dress up a few days ago so I took the opportunity to take pictures!

We don't have many flowers in our backyard so we walked down the street to take pictures

(Notice the shadow of Renna and myself... she was getting pretty heavy to carry around without the sling. So, we didn't stay out too long.)

There are more pictures of this little outing on facebook, but I think most of them are different ones that these.. I thought it was a little redundant to put pictures on both since I'm pretty sure most of the people that look at our blog are on facebook too.

Anyway, it was a fun day... I know I would have loved to dress up like this when I was little.
