Silly Little Leah

Hi all. 

It feels as though it's been soo long since I last blogged. I just didn't have the time :(

Anyway, I wasn't sure where to start, but decided I should probably get back to blogging about the cuter things in life such as little sisters.

I asked to take a picture of her before church one night. When I said that, she immediately got into this pose! I was so surprised that she would think to sit like this for a picture-foot over foot and picture perfect-don't mind the knee scab-even pretty princesses fall when they play outside.

Again, in my room she posed like this for the picture. This one just totally reminds me of me-the way she was trying to explain. I have many picture of me "talking" just like that-eye brows raised and mouth wide open. As a side note-I just love dressing little girls! They are so fun!

 I woke up Memorial day, was still in bed reading, and Leah ran in and hugged me so tight. She missed me! I told Nick to take a picture-usually when I am gone for a while she does not want to even come in my arms and occasionally says she missed me. Side note: sometimes I love love my hair. I sat up in bed  and just put some hair behind my ears and let me tell you it looks good if I do say so myself for not having brushed it or anything. The night hours have little effect on my hair. Worked in my favor last week when I woke up at 8:16, had to be at work at 8:30. Didn't have to waste a minute on the hair, but every other morning I do tease and/or hairspray my hair. I hope this doesn't sound like I'm a careless hair girl, but that it works to my advantage most days!

Yet another pose-when I didn't ask her. Notice, she realizes she doesn't have to look directly at the camera. I told her the picture turned out blurry and that she needs to sit down again. She said, "we were just taking it the wrong way."

Yesterday, she was in the dining room looking through my cookbooks, while I was doing my summer class homework. She started talking to herself and I thought, I better write down everything she says, so I typed it on my phone and now here it is exactly how she said it. Notice the jumping and changing of subject.

"Hey get out of here brothers. You are not going in my room ever again (probably heard it from Lena!). I have to do my homework. I'm looking for recipes. Oh what can a baby do, oh what can a baby do, you can't do this or that (She was watching veggie tales that morning). Mom it's just homework. Fine he can go in my room to sleep with me (probably heard that from me about Andrew or Victor-they sometimes want to sleep with me). Mom but he's too little. (Then takes out clean diapers my aunt left at our house) Smelly diaper. These are diapers to change babies."

As you can tell, I just love this little girl! She has a character and personality so different from Lena and I. All of us sisters are so different. Oh and Lena, the latest she asked for was a water bottle, and still asking to go to Victoria Secret to buy a shirt.

Blessings,
