The Adventures of the Hurricane

I just love my curly headed, blue-eyed hurricane! She brings endless entertainment to our lives! And endless clean - up! If you leave her alone for more that 2 minutes she can dismantle an entire room! It is really amazing! I told her this week...."It's a good thing you are so cute!" It never ceases to amaze me how different our girls are! E is our quiet peaceful one, always ready to help, and a rule follower to the last detail. A is a ball of energy and laughter from the moment she gets up until her head hits the pillow. She has two volumes loud and louder. And everyday is a party!
So in the latest installment of the adventures of the hurricane.... we are desperately trying to entice the munchkin to eat her veggies...this is proving to be a lesson in futility! Why oh why can't we humans survive on fruit snacks alone??? Anyway, I know that dipping is always fun and A is a huge fan of the ranch dressing. So last week the star veggie of lunch was carrot sticks with ranch! Taadaa! I put the plate on the tray of her high chair and turn around to wash something in the sink and then I hear...."Look at me Mommy...Look at my eyebrows".....I slowly turn and look to see that my creative two year old is apparently looking to start a career as a make-up artist....she now has two very thick, very white eyebrows painted by the said carrot sticks and ranch and she is moving them up and down with great gusto!Taa Daa!

She is such a cutie! I don't know if I am ready for the face painting stage just yet, but I'll call you for advice when we get there!

Also, Leslie said you called about meals for them after Molly Kate arrives. Give me a call if you get a chance, or I'll call you today after school. She has told me of a few people that have already offered so I thought we could put them on the list. Thanks.

Oh the joys of a two year old! Everyday is an adventure. Ava loves putting on make up with me and the eyebrows are her favorite part! We haven't covered them in ranch though....yet.

She is so cute! All the memories that kids bring. Sometimes I wish I could just capture all of them and remember them forever!
