~ Our Girls ~

We finally ordered Charley's birth announcements and here is the finished product. Some have been handed out already and the others are in the mail. What a precious little girl we are so proud to call our own.

Here's a couple of comparisons between Lennah and Charley I wanted to include.

I just love these shots of Nathan with the girls - they should be called "A Father's Love". It's so apparent how much he adores them.

~ Crawling ~

Well it's official - my little girl is crawling. Charley's been seriously cruising around the last couple of days and Momma's not too happy! LOL I'm joking, I wasn't prepared for her to be so mobile so quickly though. Lennah was much more content to sit and play in one spot until she started to bum scoot much closer to her first birthday. So far, so good, we've had no casualties yet. Unless you count the screams when Lennah takes away her toys! Charley seems happy enough to crawl to Mommy, Lennah or her toys and not the kitchen cupboards - yet!

I just had to share a couple shots of my beautiful girls.

~ Tool Time ~

Just this afternoon, Nathan and Lennah installed a new baby gate. I think if Lennah had known what she was actually helping to build, she wouldn't have been so eager to help Daddy. But, what a great helper she was - and she only lost one screw! She hammered, measured and drilled. As you can see, when she figured out what it was all for, she wasn't too pleased. Charley on the other hand, hasn't figured out the gravity of the situation - wait until she really starts crawling around!

~ Bath time ~

We finally gave Charley her first kitchen sink bath the other night. It went over famously, so well in fact, that Lennah had to get in on the action! Lennah has only had one of these herself, her first bath home from the hospital, a very long time ago. Looks like Charley will be having more of these in the future!

~ Mmmm, Nutella ~

If you look closely, you'll see she's licking her lips! Turkey Farmer!!!

What else is there to say? Not much. I came out of the shower this afternoon to see if Lennah wanted to go outside and spied her sitting on the floor in front of the TV. I asked if she was ready to go and all she did was hold up her hands. It took a moment for it to register what was on her hands, the evidence was on the floor between her legs, a big jar of Nutella! I didn't even have the heart to chastise her, it was awfully cute. Obviously she hadn't touched anything yet! So I brought her into the kitchen, noticing the chocolate syrup sitting on the floor by the open cupboard she'd unlocked, and she happily posed for a few shots!

~ Happy Valentine's to Me ~

My lovely Valentine's Day gift from Nathan - handpicked by me! I am in love with this one of a kind, silk and nuno felted scarf. I can't wait to dress it up with a blouse, jeans and some high heels!

~ My Cool Finds ~

Pink Champagne pendant with cord necklace.

Cosmic Stripe pendant that was custom made into a brooch for me.

These two pieces of one of a kind jewellery are from the GroovyGlassGirl. For now I'm keeping my source of "where to buy" close to myself. I'm very excited about them and can't wait to get to show them off.
