Eyes

Took this with my phone (thanks, Kev-o!). You can see me reflected! Probably took that other one with a phone as well.

Esme for Dinner

Not yet 3 & 2 respectively, and already swapping clothes.

Down!

One of these things is not like the others

Wand of elder, never prosper.

Body Art

Next up, piercings!

Cha-cha-chanukkah

Jo says, "That's not funny." But I notice that she's not typing! And, yes that's right: we do let our two year old play with fire.

Purple Chair for Two

Claire came to hang out on Monday while Charlotte visited the dentist. Those wacky Canadians! I'm pleased to suggest that Zara & Claire are both more or less pretty close to being effectively potty trained. Good thing, for the sake of the purple chair.

Cranky

Zara has entered her sullen teenage years early. Her new dolly is "Pooks", a gift from the M-M's after they noticed how much Zara coveted Claire's babies. I think "Pooks" might be short for "Puma".

I don't have to explain my art to you, Warren

We recently introduced Zara to watercolors. She's quite into crafts these days, which is very exciting. I feel a little under prepared, in that I don't have a large collection of "crafts" to do with her. I hope a bunch of art supplies will be sufficient.

Costume

Having spent many hours building the helicopter of Zara's Halloween dreams, I'm not sure what we're going to do with it. Maybe the attic? Freecycle? I guess Zara could want to be a helicopter for Halloween for the next few years..
