The Princess & The Peanut

It's amazing how fast these last few weeks have been going! My little peanut is growing up very quickly- hardly a little peanut anymore, more like a walnut now! :) She's doing so great with sleeping and eating. And we are LOVING her smiles and cute little noises now- so fun. Lydia is definitely showing a bit of preference for Mommy though which makes it a little bit hard, but I'm guessing she'll get over that quickly once I head back to work next week (at least I really hope so!)
My Princess is exactly that... total princess. She has been a hoot lately. Totally getting into her imagination. She loves to play with her baby dolls and dress up like a fairy princess and call Cinderella on her play cell phone. She's very in-tune with emotions. She always talks about what would make her feel happy, or that she's feeling sad. She's also very aware of what the emotions of characters are in her books and movies. In most books she'll find the page where the character is sad or scared and really focus on it talking about how the other characters help them or what they're scared of. It's so sweet to see her being so empathetic.

We've been doing lots and lots of "fun stuff" still (Evie loves asking to do "fun stuff" everyday!) But I'm down to my last few days off work... goodbye freedom! LOL. We're totally making the most of all this extra time together.

Of course I've been taking pics of it all! :)

Here's my cute little peanut making sweet little faces.


Look how big she's getting!


They were so cute last week in their coordinating brown dresses for church


Her eyelashes have grown in! :) Aren't her eyes the prettiest shade of blue?


Totally passed out on Daddy when we were visiting Natalie & Jason


The Princesses in action... Evie loved all Sophie's dress-up gear!




Me...30! Yikes. Nothing a piece of chocolate cake and a glass of wine can't fix though... :)


She told me she was "Just relaxin" in her chair. LOL. Her favorite new movie is "Charlotte's Web"


We had a great time on Monday with Mom at the Apple Farm. It was a beautiful, warm fall day (finally!)


They had the most adorable baby pygmy goat there- Evie kept asking if she could pick it up!




That evening she got her whole princess ensemble on and was just playing like crazy.




Good times! Hope you like seeing what we've been up to. Leave me a comment, I'd love to know that you've been by!
