Ayla had to take a bug to preschool for show-and-tell. We found her a little pill bug that she thought was so cute. We put it in a jar and she claimed it as her new pet. She even told it good night. So the next day we decided she could keep it as a "pet" and she named it Exy. Not quite sure how to spell it. It is just pronounced X E. Funny girl. She added some dirt and leaves to it and keeps it down in her room with her. You can barely see it in the pic to the right of the brown leaf on the far let.
Pics from Peepster 2010. Sorry we didn't get many good ones this year. The weather was pretty cold outside so the kids just did their peepster hunt in the house and the camera was forgotten.
A conversation had between Ayla and Jord one night while I was trying to get her to go to bed.
This is a picture I found on the back of one of Ayla's preschool papers. It is the first real picture of a face that she has drawn. I thought it was so cute and asked her what it was. She told me it was Dora. The lines on the mouth are teeth by the way. And for some reason she is adamant that her name has a Q in it.
Ayla has a new friend. Apparently it is a little pink dog, one that only she can see. I would tell you its name, but I haven't quite figured that one out yet. It does have the words Toy Puller in there somewhere. She and Lily were taking it for a walk around the house the other day. I wish I had gotten a picture of it. They were hand in hand just walking circles through the kitchen and down the hall to their room. So cute. So yesterday I was busy getting Lily dressed when Ayla came up and asked if I wanted to pet her dog. I said sure and began to pet the dog that was in her hands. Or at least I thought it was. She then looks at me and says, "Mom, it's down there." as she points to the ground. It would be so much easier if I could just see these imaginary things.
Lily likes to rub her head, maybe because her hair is finally starting to come in. She loves to pull hair, hence the reason I just chopped mine off. I figure that is why she does it to herself because she finally feel her hair. Anyway, Ayla thought she had hurt her head. I was busy doing something and then all of a sudden I hear Ayla say, "There, all better." I turned around to find this.
Pics at Heather's house. Hunter and Ayla love playing together.

I can't believe my baby is already 1. The year just flew by. I made her a ladybug cake, but only had neon dye for the frosting. Ayla had been calling it a Lilybug so that is what we decided it was. I was afraid she would eat way too much of it because she loves food and will eat almost anything. Almost anything, but cake. She didn't care at all for the cake. Oh well. We had Jord's family over for dinner and cake. She got some new toys and pajamas to wear. We would have had more pics, but had the video camera going instead. Lily is such a cutie and we love her all. Happy birthday sweetheart.
Here are some pics of my cute little girls. This year Ayla was a vampire and Lily was a bat. We would have taken more pics, but the camera batteries died.
