Weekend Recap

Two important things happened this weekend.  

First, Elsa got her first "professional" haircut!  She was a little wary at first, but after Deb gave her her own comb, it was all good! Goodbye mullet!



Second, we celebrated Grandpa Flott's Birthday!

Happy Birthday, Bapa!


Hibernating

It's one of the times of year where we can say we are not crazy busy.  And we are happy to not be. 

After a fun-filled fall and a holiday season of living in excess, bouncing from shopping trips to parties to family get-togethers,  we've found ourselves at home a lot more in January.  We've watched movies. We've baked cookies. We've snuggled.  We've played with toys, old and new. We've gone on short outings just to get out of the house.  We've gotten over colds. We've re-organized closets. And cleaned.  Because when you're home a lot, you notice the dust a little more... 

Baby doll needed some Vick's too!


For a girl who doesn't use pluggies, she sure thinks they're fun!

Everyday Elsa is doing something new - new expressions, new gestures (I'm sure someday her dramatic shoulder shrug won't be as cute, but for now, it's adorable), new dance moves, and new favorite games.  It's been fun to be able to take the time to soak her all in.  



Loves her yogurt...

and finding interesting ways to eat it!

Accessories Make the Outfit

Our fashionista.  Everything is a necklace or scarf these days (no idea where she sees those things...).  No item in her ever-increasing reach is off limits to her wardrobe - Mom's sweaters, Dad's shorts, toys, dish towels, actual necklaces and scarves - you name it.  Except bibs.  Don't even think about putting a bib around this girl's neck.
