I don't think Malaya will ever give up "mommy's shirt"!


Jolie likes to hold my hand as she falls asleep. On this day, I put Jolie in her crib for a few minutes while I put Malaya down for a nap. When I came back to get Jolie, I found that she had taken her socks off and put herself to sleep by holding her own foot.

Malaya could not vacuum until she had her baby doll sitting on her hip. I guess you can always see yourself through the actions of your children. But don't get too many ideas. Malaya is wearing my slippers in the previous picture, but the "birthday suit" was completely her idea! (lol)

Silly girl! That's not your chair!!

We were so excited to play in the snow. But, 30 inches is not all it's cracked up to be. I spent a lot of time and energy to get Malaya up a hill just to find out that instead of the sled cruising down the hill, it just sunk in the snow. Then I spent more time and energy to drag her back down the hill. After that, we just stayed on the driveway.

Bittersweet

Jolie is trying to walk!!! Jolie just turned 9 months old and she really wants to walk. The other night Sean and I decided to have her "walk" between us. She stood for several seconds, bounced up and down 3 times, stood a little bit more, and then crashed. It was cute!! I'll try to get video soon.

Apparently Jolie does not like carrots.

Jolie is trying so hard to crawl. She gets up on her hands and knees and rocks. She makes a "V" shape by putting her hands and feet on the rug and pushing her bottom up in the air. And last night she started getting in the crawling position and jumping up and down. She'll get the hang of it soon.

And when she really wants to get somewhere, she rolls or army crawls.

Ready for the aquarium...baby on board.
