once upon a time

Not too long ago, there was just enough snow for two kids to play outside. They went in the yard with their parents and used up every last inch of the fresh snow. If there isn't enough snow for us, we certainly won't leave any for the neighbor kids!

on the move

Miss Cordelia is growing and moving. She lunges for food and drink and is a sort of secret scooter. One minute she is next to you and the next minute she is under a chair. The scooting has reached such heights that her bum is paying the price. Little scootin' pimps.

hey! hey! look at mommy!

For some unknown reason, both Cordelia and Bea have been drawn to football. They actually want to watch it. This better change, they are supposed to be m'girls, my ladiez, my partners in crime! They must have realized I felt left out and gave me some charity smiles - if that's what you want to call it.

great idea bea!

While putting away the Christmas decorations, Bea became obsessed with these socks (or stockings, as you and I would know them). She demanded that I put them on her. I couldn't believe how PERFECTLY they fit. How CUTE! She then proceeded to jig all around the house, thundering with her heels and clanging the bells.
