just taking a few minutes for a tribute to my favorite toddler. had the sweet pleasure of being home in missouri with my family this past weekend & seeing my two nieces is always a highlight:) miss laney is three rambunctious years old now and keeps us all on our toes. over the weekend i was informed by her, "don't talk with food in your mouth," along with, "don't scream" and, "we don't call people stinky butts" (for the record i was carrying her baby sister to change a poopy diaper!). i guess being around a toddler is like having a mirror held up in front of your face. she was quick to keep me in line!
my aunt & i got a wild hair to venture out to a restaurant alone with the two girls which was an adventure in and of itself and oh my goodness, it took me 30 minutes to just get out of the house after losing my iPhone, the bottle, pacifier, and breast-milk bag twice!!! i reckon mommy-brain is a real phenomenon! anyway, over lunch we (and the rest of the restaurant as well) were informed that "i wasn't burping, i was trying to puke a little." the waitress had to bend over she was laughing so hard.
elena, you are something else. you are making me laugh now just thinking about you and although you'll probably never read this, i want you to know that i love you to the moon. i love you when you're being a little stink-pot and trying to navigate your independence, when you say "two and fifty and be-non!" ("two infinity and beyond!"), when you're laughing so hard it makes me laugh, and when you say "cheese" for the camera with your eyes squinted closed. you're the best thing ever, peanut.

Great pics! Laney is a stinker! Great pics--they capture the essence of Laney and Audrey!
Great pictures, Jess! We had so much fun taking those, and hanging out with you all weekend! I love the variety- from the first ones, to the smiling ones, then the one in the tree and the one after it... all the moods of Laney! :) And there are a million...
