Make it Pink, Make it Blue....

Getting my kids dressed in the morning is an easy task. I pick out what they wear and without complaint or question they happily put it on. However, this morning, Lainey put a wrinkle in this usually smooth task. She put on the top and pants that I had given her and then reached for a different pair of shoes. The pair that she grabbed were orange with white polka-dots and while they were cute, they definitely did not match her outfit. When I said "No," she went downstairs for a second opinion from Poppie. Soon enough Poppie, the resident fashionista, had convinced her that the orange pair were all wrong and showed her the pair that correctly matched her outfit. With that settled, all that Laine needed to be ready for the day was an 'necessary' accessory. I came down with two flowers for her hair, a pink one and a lime green one for her to choose from. Immediately, Laine picked the green. I put it on her head, she smiled, looked up at Poppie and Me and said, "Does it match?"
Poppie may have her prodigy after all.

Pics for Poppie

Nearly 30 years old and the dress is still stylin'. Lainey LOVES the dress and insisted on wearing her favorite orange flower that clashes nicely with the pink ribbon.

But You Can't Pick Your Friends....

Mom: "Hey Laine. Please don't eat your boogers. They'll make you sick."

Laine: "Oh. Only eat ham-boogers?"

Easter Sunday

Waiting to go downstairs.

Laine: "I pretty, Mommy."

Gone Baby Gone, the Bink is Gone

Had I known it was going to be so easy, I would have gotten rid of the binkie ages ago. Lainey handed it over before bed with the promise of a sand box. So far, no mention of the binkie, just lots and lots of sand.

Easter Egg Hunt

We had a great little Easter egg hunt in our backyard this year. (Next year, family, plan on coming out for it).

Lots of Lob

Laine has been professing her love for many things this week.

"I lob oceans!"

"I lob purple!"

"I lob SHOES!"

"I lob this!"
