me: a what sweetie??
hannah (pointing at the wall): a er-bell!!
me (sees light speck reflecting on wall): ohhhhh....is it tinkerbell?! ( i swear i get more wrinkles on my brain trying to figure
out what she's saying than reading a history book!)
hannah: yeah! (joy almost overcomes her at this point)
i slyly move the toy mirror making "tinkerbell" dance from wall to wall. hannah can't believe her eyes!
me: look hannah! tinkerbell is dancing! try and catch her!
hannah chases the light screaming "hi ink-bell!" and then timidly attempts to befriend the bit of magic with her own set of bells.
while eating grapes with our lunch last week, hannah kept saying "a dinosaur! a dinosaur!". i knew what she was saying but didn't get how it related. then hannah started tromping her grape vine around saying, "roarrrrrr. a dinosaur!!!" i can be a bit slow sometimes when trying to keep up the witty mind of a two year old.
madeline has plenty of entertainment watching this "imaginative little mind" run circles.......
the "steve alfandre eyebrows" are quickly making their deput on her developing little face! love em!

I am glad madeline can hold her head up now. When I held her for the first time, I thought it was going to roll off. Give them both big hugs and wet kisses for me.
Mads is so cute! I love her. And Hannah sounds like she is such a sweetheart and so much fun. I'm jealous that she sees tinkerbell. Jackson is constantly fighting bad guys and is always either a pretend power ranger, spiderman, batman, superman or incredible. what i would give for a fairy princes...
i can always count on your blog for a good story to make me smile.
How FUN! I love those little imaginations! They are both adorable! Sounds like you guys stay pretty busy - I love the "caught on film" story about tinkerbell :) -- Rachel

I love this...you really are the best mom, and I mean it. First off THANK YOU for changing your blog music. Mike always new when I was on your site bc the music. It was time for a change.
