cloth diapers

At night if she has a wet diaper shortly before her bathtime, I've been putting on a cloth diaper with pins which is quite bulky as I believe was shown in a previous post. I've been researching some contour cloth diapers that might fit better as I can't seem to get the right fit with the standard rectangular cloth diaper that I've had [since B's birth and had just used them for burp cloths for him and then for her].I've decided to try & use more cloth diapers at night so I'll have to shop around and get some other type of fastners/pins than what I have now.

Mardi Gras

T had her second Mardi Gras last Tuesday and did very well. She finally fell asleep around 3:30 as the parades were almost done. We'd left the house at 6:42 and were at our spot on St. Charles for like 7:30 after finding a wonderfully close parking spot. Here are some photos of her first 2 Mardi Gras days, 19 months and 7-8 months.

Above, the first photo is where she decided to place her shoes and thus dirtying her socks thoroughly! B is pouting in one because the floats aren't throwing enough. T wearing her pink pjs before changing to her Saints cheerleader outfit and eating a wonderful breakfast of Bugle chips. The final 3 photos are from last year which I'd taken with my phone camera and finally had uploaded to the computer.

chicken!! :<

Senorita climbed up on the kitchen chairs twice within about a week and grabbed the chicken leg that I'd cooked for Bekher. This was much to my displeasure because I was trying to keep her vegetarian as long as possible. But she DEVOURED the chicken leg. My goodness!

yoga?? & attitude

OH Senorita.What are we going to do with you? She stands on the chair watching the computer either Signing Time video or the Spanish Dora from mundonick.com and she raises one leg behind her, reminding me of a yoga pose. She also does this while nursing. She is climbing on the chairs for our (high) table and she climbed up the chair to get onto the trampoline all by herself. She's just a monkey all around!

She's beginning to get a little attitude nowadays, pushing away things she doesn't want; and she says "nooooo" in the cutest way, in response to various questions (even if the answer is yes).

more eating & WOW

She's been saying WOW pretty clearly now for the past few days. It's cute.

Here's some photos of her eating a green bell pepper and then one of her lying in the playpen after she threw all the toys out to make room for that to happen.

birthday

Saturday was big brother B's 8th birthday. He opened his gifts from us at home and then his party was later that night at Chuck E. Cheese. Senorita danced and had a good time with Chuck E.

eating things

Here are photos of Senorita eating a red bell pepper and much to my chagrin, a chicken leg :<
