Compilation

The last week has been a holy terror. I just have not been up to taking pictures. So, here's a compendium of photos from Vivian's weekend with my parents. 

Playing in rain puddles

Watching horses

Going down the slide like a big girl

Eating at Dos Arcos (as necessity when visiting C-town)

Watching tv?

Imagination is Strong in This One

Sully has become Vivian's little baby. She will put him to sleep with her blanky and a little stuffed monkey. She also tries to let him ride her rocking horse. Sadly his tail makes this a little difficult.

Then he got kicked off.

Then he jumped on her trampoline.

Listening to Disney music and playing with her princesses.

Park Day!

Vivian actually slept in today. Woo hoo!! Except, I was worried that meant she was going to try to fight her nap so I did my best to wear her out. I let her help push the cart all over the grocery store. Then we went to the park for two hours. And the kid still took thirty minutes to fall asleep!!

She had lots of fun at the park. It's huge and has a bunch of different play areas. It's pretty much the only thing I'm going to miss with the move.  Here she is playing in the sandbox. Preparing for the beach.

Her hiding spot for hide and go seek. She's a sneaky one.

I put her in the tree but I still think it's cute.

The Only Way to Eat Yogurt

Failed Attempt

I tried to take some cute pictures for a "we've moved" card but none of them turned out very well. So, here you go.

In which my child turned evil and I got shut down

Baby Elmo

Vivian decided Elmo needed a diaper today because he went poopy. Her words. Now, I know that seems cute and it was. However, people, I have no clue where she found the diaper. None. I know it was somewhere in our house. But all clean diapers are out of her reach so this one frightened me.

I'm not the obstinate child

What happens when I ask her to look at the camera

The very big cookie

An apparently easier way to eat the very big cookie (which took twenty minutes to finish)

Then look I get when I ask if she is finished with the very big cookie

Oh Hai There!

How to spot a sick Vivian

She only eats a few bites of cereal for dinner. Then promptly vomits it up on mommy. Twice.

She actually cuddles while she is awake.

She actually sits still. I love this picture. I was sitting across from her taking pictures while she ate cereal and she randomly looked up and smiled at me at just the same second I was taking a photo. Then she looked away and resumed eating.

Baby baby

Ok, folks. I need an honest opinion. Do you think this outfit looks too babyish on her? It's one from last summer and I looove it but I feel like it might look too young. The ruffles on the front just don't fit on her anymore I don't think. It's just so adorable.

I taught her how to put money in her piggy bank. Great time suck for long rainy afternoons.

Asking for more money. She is her mother's child after all.

This is the pic I particularly don't like. I think she just look too old to wear it. Please tell me if I'm wrong... or right

Ready for the Beach!

I've started trying on some of Vivian's summer clothes from last year to see what still fits. Happily her little Lily swimsuit still does! It is so cute!!!! After I put on her suit she wanted to put on sandals then went and pulled on her matching pink headband. She's gotten so tall

Playing hide and go seek behind the curtains

Doing a little bit of coloring

 There's Vivian!

Some Updates from the Weekend

Checking out the other cars. Nosy Inquisitive like her Aunti

Apparently Disney movies have taught her that princesses sweep a lot (in her Belle skirt)

Have a skirt that's just too big? You can fix it by pulling on a tutu underneath! It has the added benefits of poofy drama

Then add another tutu on top for some flare

LOVE this one

She's actually holding up the front of her skirt while she's walking. Haha
