saturday

always happy
adda is really into accessorizing lately. some of her chosen looks have been a little over the top and i joke that she should be tracys child. last week she wore a dress to church with pants, rubber boots, a cloche hat and white sunglasses (which she kept on through the whole service) - it was total rock star meets bag lady. today it's a rubber, smokey the bear bracelet, a winter scarf and the necklace she made from a shoe string and cheerios.

honest talk

hudson is starting to make little sentences. this morning he was crying on the couch after being removed from the breakfast table and scolded for dumping his food and throwing his spoon. adda came from another room when she heard him and said "it's ok. don't you cry little buddy. what's a matter with hudsy"? in a big sob he said "mummy not nice". satisfied with his answer, she disappeared, returning moments later to offer him his blanket. "it's ok, mommy not mad at you little buddy. you need stop bein messy lil boy and mommy'll love you again, pick you up and sing you song".

she's all healed up now but you can tell she was kind of proud of the bruise she got from pulling a tv over on her head!

not for sale













adda & hudson are participating in a toddler art show at casa nueva this month. 3 pieces of their art were included and are on display through july. adda is beyond excited but has expressed concern about someone buying her work (as in "don't want some mans with money in bag come takes my picture home him"). couldn't tell her that her worry was probably pretty unfounded so i just promised her they would be listed "not for sale".
