Silly Girl

Sorry to all my faithful blog checkers, who come and see that I haven't posted a new picture of any thing interesting for a good while. Clearly we just haven't been up to much of anything. These pictures pretty much sum up our life in the past week or two.
This is Noelle doing her best pose. Since she really doesn't get it when we try to show her how to do a pose or how to flex her muscles. This is the end result. We took the picture for Auntie, who sent her this outfit. She was looking pretty cute with her matching hair bows and such and as we were getting ready to walk out the door to our Wednesday play group, she peed her pants. She still looked cute, just not with those particular green shorts. BTW, potty training is still on and we had a major break through just today.


This is Noelle in her personal art studio, also known as the high chair that we don't use anymore unless we have guests over. Sometimes she draws on paper and sometimes she draws on herself. High five girl! Thank goodness for washable markers. She's especially good at making circles and "snakes." I don't know where the snake thing came from, but everything that is long and skinny is a snake.

This is her "silly face." We have a book that talks about making silly faces and although there are several different faces that the little critter makes, she likes this one the best. I couldn't get her to show her teeth and snap a picture in time to capture it, but it really makes Boo and I laugh a lot. We also laugh at the fact that she has a very pointy tongue. These two pictures also contrast her crazy hair and combed hair.

This is what you get when you try to take passport pictures of a two year old. We planned a trip back in January to go to Mexico in September. In preparation we had to get her a passport. I shouldn't have brushed out her fuzzy hair, it was hard to get it all in on the 2"x2" picture with out making her face too small. Neither of these pics were the winners, considering the second one is a total mug shot. Needless to say, after enough cropping and chopping it all worked out fine and we should be getting her federal ID in two to three weeks. Hooray!

Love the outfit her Auntie got for her, even she did soil herself :D Oh, and she told me all about "the snake."

She is so cute. I especially love the "silly face." Emmie has a super long pointed serpent tongue, too. It sort of creeps me out :)

Good to see you back online. My days lack humor without your posts. She looks like a future Charlie's Angel with her muscle pose.

Cute and fun pictures. Glad potty training is going alright. Hopefully it stays good(nothing floating around in the tub yet?). It's never fun.

Thanks for stopping by - still on vacation? Maybe I'll name the rooster after you since you should be here learning the farm life with me. You should come stay for awhile.
