white and beautiful.

you are finally here!
we have been waiting for you.

all of us.

and if you look closely you will see raised juicy cheeks on her face to show the pure excitement.

It's white.
It's beautiful.
It's magical.
And if daddy gets home before it gets windy we will go out and play in it.

just can't get enough of it.


This little girl is very focused on something...

she could read Brown Bear, Brown Bear all day, seriously.

and with so much expression (and a very proud mama).

I love this picture.  I see myself in this picture.

she looks so much like her mama here.
and the warmth of her eyes just pierce through my soul in a connection that pulls me to her, like she is telling me I will always be her mama.  and I love it.

on top of it all, she is going through a big mama's girl stage right now.


this little look here...that's from me.

and she is saying "mama, please let me see the pictures on the camera".
(or "mamamama, ba, ba, ba!") I'm pretty good at decoding her little language. :)

this look on the other hand, well I'm not going to claim it.
but maybe my mom and dad will say so.

It's "I want to see it right now!".
Almost 11 months old, I think it may be spot on.


Walking more and more everyday.
Took 2-3 steps last night all by herself without mommy, daddy, stroller or any support.

xoxo.

enjoy all this white and beautiful snow if you have some.
