Happy princess

vera is really into princess stuff right now. she always clarifies that she is a "happy princess". I like happy girls

This week's theme?

So i guess this week has been all about Vera's hair decorations... But here's another cute pic

Helmet head

Bath time silliness

Hair bows, headbands, and more

A few months ago I bought a ton of hair bows and barrettes because Vera's hair was getting longer and unruly. She wanted no part of taming her hair. So the pretty hair things sat a waste of money spent. But you all saw the pigtails yesterday, and today she asked for pigtails, hair bows for each pigtail and a tiara headband. So we went from one extreme to the other. But I think it's awesome :)

Pigtails!!

Too cute in pigtails. Love that my little girl is finally getting hair. Now if only she would let me put ponytails, barrettes, and bows in it! (I was so excited she let me put these pigtails in, yay!)

Two babies

Vera understands how tough it is having two babies. One in the stroller and one in the carrier makes things manageable

Christmas pose

I know everyone saw this in our Christmas card, but I wanted to save it to the blog too... Disclaimer, I paid for these pictures, and did not take them myself (as if that wasn't obvious, haha)

Asleep

Two cuties passed out on the couch...

Cookie party

We have a cookie making party every year and Vera was very involved this year. Both decorating and eating! Ps, this was before Christmas... Just a delayed post :)

Hanging out

Vera loves baby seats, swings, exersaucers in spite of her being closer to 3 than 2 (gulp)
