Popeye the Sailor Girl...

Lately Bella is into picking her jammies out herself and surprising us. So a few nights ago she went in there, we waited, and waited, and waited some more. Finally she comes out all smiles and strikes a Popeye pose! "Mom, I'm Popeye the sailor girl, toot toot!"

Awww...

Let's see...we've had a cold already in January. Then in February she had the flu. Now she welcomes March with ANOTHER cold! Can she look anymore pathetic!? And really, the picture does not do enough justice. The joys of parenting!

Date night with Daddy

At preschool last week they had a "Dinner with Dad". So I explained to Bella she was going to go on a date with Daddy just like Mommy does sometimes. So I asked what she wanted to wear...a dress, of course! So we laid out all the dresses and she settled on one. Then she asked if she could curl her hair to look pretty "like you do on your date's with Daddy." So we did the hair, nail polish, a touch of make-up, perfume...all the girly stuff!
