Pigtails and a Problem!
Tonight I tried Laela's hair in pigtails! No prob. She has enough that it worked great!
Then, the funniest thing happened. Laela was riding her car around the house and the handle that steers popped off. When we built it, the screw was missing to hold the handle on. We figured it really wasn't a big deal. Well, Laela was holding on tight, rocking back and forth when...POP! She was so confused and the whole time her car was still moving!
We made a quick repair and off she went!

Our yard is not so Springy!
but we are working on it. Guess who needed to join in with the yardwork this weekend?
YES! Laela Grace. Of course since mommy and daddy had on yard gloves, she need gloves too! So...the pink, leopard print winter mittens had to work!
Then we were putting leaves in the bag, but the princess did not want to touch them, so she used the dust pan. Oh my! I think we may need a little more practice with yardwork, but no fear! We have plenty to do and our sweet girl can help us out this year.

Thursday things...
Thing #1: How about this smile?
Laela is talking to her daddy on the phone! Ro has been out of town since Monday, so Laela was BESIDE HERSELF when she got to talk to daddy today!
(Please disregard the diet coke can. She got it out of the refrigerator and was "drinking" it with her dinner tonight....oh my....how independent we are these days!)
I just happen to call while she was eating dinner and Laela decided that she needed to TALK to her daddy. WOW! She was so happy and she definitely gave him an earful!
Thing #2 A new red scooter!
We order Laela a little scooter after seeing her jump right on one at a friends house. I was cracking up at her tonight. She loves to get on and say "help!" She likes for me to push her around. (We just need to work on the part about moving her leg to make it go all by herself!)
Thing #3 Birthday party at school!
Laela got to celebrate one of her friend's birthdays at school today. She didn't eat any breakfast or lunch, but they said she ate half of her cookie!
What a wonderful Thursday for Laela!

Spring Picture Day...
Today was picture day at school. She was in a class picture and an individual picture. 
Laela looked so beautiful and grown-up today! Of course she would not stop for the camera, so hopefully the camera man caught a couple of good ones! (OH! Laela insisted on wearing this jacket this morning. AH! I hope they did not let her wear it for the picture.)
Oh...and of course I LOVE her shoes and so did she! When she put them on this morning, she said, "WOW!" and I cracked up laughing!

Spring Break Project...
For awhile, Nanna has mentioned that Laela "needs" a pillow in her bed. Well, I agreed, but could not find one that I liked. So...I decided to make one! Here was the inspiration:
Here are the materials: (Sorry this picture is turned over. For some crazy reason I can not flip it.)
The sewing machince Ro got me for Christmas. I have not had time to open it, but now I did! 
This cute polka-dot fabric.
One hour later...VOILA!

Zoom!
We met the Hodges' at the mall for some indoor play time today. You know...since it is the first day of Spring and snow is falling...we have to play inside! AH!
Brandt and Laela were not up for much run around play time, but they did love driving this classic car.
They both had steering wheels, but I think Laela was in the "driver's seat" (if you know what I mean.) BTW...who does she get that from? :)
