349&350/365 The Nutcracker

I took Little Mama to see The Nutcracker. It was really sweet for us to get to do this together.

I hadn't taken her for a couple of years because I always consider it my most expensive nap EVER !

I slept through the 1st half this year but was actually really interested in the 2nd half. 

I do wonder if it is the same every year. I mean do they change the scene backdrops? I think these were the same sets as last time I took the kids.

We did get a chance to meet the mouse and one of the little nutcrackers.

I think she really didn't want to have her picture taken with these guys, but I made her anyway.

The Nutcracker was so friendly, it was very interesting.

Little Mama's Birthday

Does she look like the birthday girl or what??? How about all those teeth. I remember when she was born and how dark her hair was and how different she looked as a baby.



Little Mama on the day she was born. I have to admit, most ashamedly, my mom and I didn't think she was the prettiest baby on the block. Now that I look back at the newborn pictures I sometimes wonder how she went from here......

to here.......

to here....



and finally to today. Her transformation has been amazing.

Happy Birthday Little Mama !!!

She is so beautiful, inside and out, I can hardly wait to love her the rest of her life !!!

BUBBLES !!!

They are such easy fun entertainment, I'm not sure how I have forgetten about them. At a friends birthday we got some for a party favor and here we are. I pulled out our Gymboree bubbles, the kind that never pop, and took them with us to family dinner at the park. Ms.E had a great time blowing them. I think she too forgot how fun they can be.
