♥Jackson and Beatrix♥: September 2010

Here are some really cute pictures of Beatrix. She is the happiest, sweetest, funniest little girl I have ever known. In short, she is perfection. She will be 2 on October 23 and it blows my mind away to think of that. WHERE did the last two years go?? She is starting to talk now and her favorite words are cookie, Nona, mamma, da (what she calls Chris), doggie, please and thank you (I know, I have superior mothering skills!), baby and the dreaded ba-ba. Ba-ba has become an evil word around here, she calls her drinks and any food other than cookies or bananas (which are, of course, nannas). She stands her tiny body completely straight, adopts what only can be called a Napoleonesque stance, points her chubby finger in the general direction of the chosen food item and chants "ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba" until you either turn the radio up loud or start hurling string cheese and cheerios at her until she is satisfied. That is about the worst of it with Bea. That and her desire to become the world's youngest party animal, this child will stay up in her bed playing with her animals and talking forever I think. All in all she is a great baby and I feel blessed every day I kiss her round cheeks or bury my face in her delicate cotton candy hair. I got it bad for Beatrix Suzann Elaine Sears. If I have time tonight I will upload my "Jackson Post" since he is pretty damn special and great himself...one at a time though, one at a time.

Soft and pretty
