Stylin'

The Babe loves to take care of her babies especially when it comes to doing their hair. She even tries her luck on Mama and me from time to time. Her Ms. Marah doll got the attention this time around.

Visiting Koko

We headed up to L.A. on Saturday to visit Koko. As soon as we got in the car, the Babe said, "I'm gonna play with all of Koko's toys!" Daddy and I just looked at each other and smiled... "Ok Iz! I'm sure Koko will appreciate that!"

But the Babe found plenty of great "toys" to play with after all...

The antique typewriter:




The magical chain to the blinds:




The chess set:




Koko even had an Izzy-sized stool!


Watching Koko paint her toenails:


Looking at little girl pics of Koko and saying, "This is me!" (The resemblance is uncanny!)




Loungin' with Daddy:

Meet Spike

Momo and Jiji gave the Babe a really cool "Grow-a-head" bug for Easter, and she has loved watching its spikey hair grow and grow! It seems to grow almost 1cm a day! (Guess it takes after Daddy & Izzy!)

Still just a halo:


Two days later:

Easter Prep

We prepped for Easter by going over to the Kellica-Porters to dye some (ok, a lot of) Easter eggs.

The Babe donned her Easter "bonnet"

and got ready w/the skewers for the marbleized eggs.


Kelly, ready to dye!


Sarah, creating some masterpieces.


Jessica & Porter, taking a little break


Who else, Porter Magoo!


Mama & Izzy, hard at work

Spring Line 2009

The Babe got a nice package of Spring clothes from TT, Carlea, and Kate and she was VERY excited about it. Thank you!!
A couple of highlights:

Fun beach dress, with new swimsuit underneath:


Cool overalls (again, with new swimsuit underneath):

Like Father, Like Daughter - Pt 2

I don't think I have to tell you where she gets all of that hair!!
