Today we had a super exciting play date. It was “super exciting” because I always look so much forward to seeing and chatting with “Miss Juweeanna” (as Alizea calls her) and her red-head beauty, Elyse, and we were long overdue! I got up extra early to make our lunches so I could maximize the time… Continue Reading

Alizea’s new creative play (all on her own doing, might I add) includes dunking her “Little People” into the baptismal font (1 of Genevieve’s gifts) and blessing them with the sign of the cross…. hilariously adorable! The convo went something like this as I was doing dishes… M: Alizea, Are you baptizing your Little People? … Continue Reading
Tonight I had help in the kitchen. In fact, lately, spicy A has become quite the little baker and chef. While taking the bell peppers out of the bag to rinse and cut, she held up one of them toward my face and very loudly and proudly exclaimed “Look mommy, a little Davieve!” It’s good… Continue Reading
It seems as though every time you spend an extended period of time with Mimi, you come back a more mature, independent and communicative little girl!
