Skating.

Another first for Piglet. She's been wanting to try ice skating ever since seeing Strawberry Shortcake do it. So we went. My husband tried to take her on the ice. But we realized that he needs to stay on his feet first. Not that I'm good at it, but I managed to go around the rink twice holding Piglet up. We had fun but it felt like I had worked some new muscles in my legs.

Piglet is going to be a flower girl. As soon as this dress gets fixed.

Sisters.

I am so thankful that they will always each other ::

Back to school.

Today was first day of school for Piglet. She was ready, and did great, I think. I'm not sure if I'm more happy or sad that she'll be in school twice a week this year. I'm thrilled to have some "me" time, well with the baby, but sad that I'm slowly losing Piglet to school, friends, the world out there.

























































I've bought Piglet a few pieces of clothing for school rather than one matching back-to-school outfit. I've been loving dark blue or denim on her lately. Even inspired me to make some denim hair clips for the shop. Anyway, I love the blue even more with the orange shoes . That reminds me I want to get some more of these shoes. These are so cute.

Little one.

My new favorite thing to do during Piglet's nap time- take photos of my baby! She seems to know that she can get mama all to herself when her older sister is napping. I cannot believe how fast she is growing. Those cheeks are filling out and the baby rolls are kicking in. Love it!

Big one.

"I am a girl gardner!" Piglet happily exclaimed as she discovered that the tiny seeds she had planted in preschool many months back had finally blossomed into these big beauties. Whenever daddy is out working in the garden, she refers to him as a "boy gardener." I suppose that is where she got the "girl gardener" from.



















I have to say, big sunflowers do make me happy.
