Catch up a bit! (Jan/Feb)

Lara is changing so much every day... she is becoming more of a little girl and less of a baby. I get so excited about every new little thing that she learns and does, but it sure does make me miss that sweet little baby! She is so smart and amazes me with how much she understands and how quickly she learns! This age is a blast and one of my favorites so far! We have been having a blast lately, and I've been doing my best to capture as much fun as possible!

She looks like such a big girl here!

Can we READ Mommy?!

Favorite toy... still books! can you tell?!

Love this toothy grin (minus the snotty nose... oh well, such is the season I suppose...)

Showing off her body part identifying skills! Her favorite is her belly button! Ha!

Silly girl... She LOVES to read her books in her chair!

Hahaha - this one makes me laugh!

Reading with Daddy and her Joaninha (Ladybug)

Grumpy face... and yes, we see this often!

But it's ok, because we see this one more!

We have our routine down when we get home from work/school now. Especially since the weather has been so nice!

1. Get out of the Car 2. Lara walks all the way to the mail box by herself 3. She wants me to pick her up so she can open the mail box 4. She gets all of the mail out (and usually drops most of it!) 5. She wants to close the mailbox (so independent...) 6. She wants to run back to the house... dropping mail as we go... 7. Run through the house screaming "Haaaaaaleeeeeeeee" 8. Open the door for Hailey (squeal upon sight of said dog...) 9. Sign/say outside over and over and over until we make it to the back door. 10. Freedom to chase hailey as much as she wants (she REALLY likes taking every ball that Hailey has and throwing them AT her... I'm sure Hailey is thrilled by this... Haha!)
