Theaburf 19 months

i am so behind on posting these little note to you girlie!  Sorry about that.  

You are getting taller outgrowing your 18 months clothes and moving right into 2T.

You are jumping.

You talk every so much.  

Something super awesome is you started saying “Thea” this month.

I love how you will declare yourself silly, or dirty, or stinky etc.

You are brave and fearless.  

You are finally getting some hair and It’s still blonde.

You have so much energy.

You demand things by declaring “I need I️t”

You can peddle your trike.

You are getting better at going to sleep at bedtime.

You do the opposite of everything I say.  

You declare your love for just about everything - stating “I love I️t”

you sing Katy Perry’s “Firework” and think you’re calling herself a firework baby. 

You want to wear rain boots everywhere. 

You love babies and dress up.

Oh little birdy you grow up so fast.

Love mommy

Make Halloween costumes was on my list for this year.  

Jones has been reading the Big Bad Wolf and decided he should be that.  He really wanted Thea to be 3 little pigs but I couldn’t make that happen so I made her Little Red Riding Hood.  I found a pattern online for the big bad wolf and then when we went to buy fur jones it was $30/yard on sale!  I needed two yards so very quickly I decided I would not make his costume if the expense was that great and we ordered it online for $20.  For little red I did make her costume except for the dress which I had already in the closet.  I patterned the cape from one of her hoodies and made the apron using her overalls as a template.  The tutu was basically tulle tied onto elastic.   It was pretty easy to do.  

We went to several Halloween events including the Halloween parade where they were picked for a top costume and won free pizza.  They were a little sad when Halloween was over and Jones has already requested to be a ninja turtle for Christmas.  Lol. 

Both costumes have been now recycled into the dress up bin.
