A little birthday something

I'm not totally finished with it... unless I run out of time. Here's her birthday onesie!  I've contemplated not sewing down the fish, just to give it a "swimming" look.  And because I am really short on time.  I might add a few bubbles coming out of the fishes mouth though.

Jenny over at The Adventures of Two under Two (see her badge over to the left) sent me these adorable baby legs, which gave me the idea for the onesie!  Lillian will wear this during the "cake smashing" (aka, yogurt parfait smashing because we don't do cake). 

The rest of the party she will be wearing a party dress, but that's a surprise and you'll have to wait to see it :).

Challenge Fail

I am SO busy. Trying to make dozens of hair bows, clippies, and flower clips for a local store, friends, and a festival that I *might* have a booth at when we get home from Washington, D.C.

Speaking of D.C., our flight just got cancelled for Wednesday, so we're leaving Tuesday, which means one less day to get ready for Lillian's birthday... and all the hair accessories I'm trying to catch up on. Oh yeah, and packing.

As soon as we get back from D.C. we have another small trip to make for 3 days. We'll get home the day before Lillian's birthday party. ::insert freak out here::

I HAVE SO MUCH TO DO.

And while I'm stressing about this all, guess what we did tonight? No, I didn't work, or pack, or finish up decorations for Lillian's birthday. We went boating :). And Lillian got to see her mama wakeboard for the first time in 4 years. It was so much fun!

Things I don't want to Forget

I don't want to forget your high pitched "dadaaa da" when riding in the back seat.  The way you play "repeat" with me when we're riding in the car.  And how after I repeat you, you think it's necessary to be the loudest each time :).

I don't want to forget the way you scratch your head through your hair when you're tired.  You run your little fingers through your hair and it cracks me up every time.  Usually you're trying to find a bow.  If you find one you rip it out along with a few hairs and try to chew on it. It's cute that you remember to check daily for the bow that appears on your head.

I don't want to forget how in a room full of toys, you choose to crawl for any paper, extension cords, or picture frames on the TV stands.

I don't want to forget how easy it is to tell when you recognize someone.  You literally light up with joy when you recognize somebody (friends, family, therapists).  But when you see someone you don't recognize, you're instantly quiet and very aware of them. You study them trying to figure out what they are doing and why they matter to your existence. People at the store always comment on how attentive you are.

Delay Schmilay

Girlfriend is CRAWLING and she's right on target with it. Seriously, I have friends and family who's babies started crawling at the same time (and some later), right around 11 months. Totally typical non-delayed children. I'm so proud of her!
