Mabel gets a new hat

At the co-op today, we found a new wool hat for Mabel today. It was just too cute to pass up. Mabel sport­ed it all around the co-op, much to the plea­sure of all the patrons and employ­ees. She has been wear­ing it *all* day at home. She’ll take it off peri­od­i­cal­ly, then I see her run­ning around in it. It’s been so much fun to see her express her per­son­al­i­ty. Here is a video doing so.


Moments of Mabel

Ummm, out of des­per­a­tion to alle­vi­ate guilt, I won’t both­er look­ing at the last time I made a post. 😀 This one will have to do as a “catch-up.” Mama is busy doing school every night, plus the new call­ing that will take me to mutu­al every Wednes­day evening. And yet, it’s near­ly Mid­night and I want­ed to “catch-up” with a few pho­tos of our baby girl.

She talks and talks…I can’t get enough of it. Mabel con­tin­ues to be that sweet girl that amazes every­one. She is so kind, gen­tle and peace­ful. She just glows with a spir­it of hap­pi­ness. We think she was sent to us to show us the right way to live. HAHAH. She is tru­ly our lit­tle angel. What a joy!


Mabel’s Vocabulary at 20 Months

We can’t get her to say her own name to save our lives. 


Enjoying Fall

Mama and Mabel love sit­ting out front in the after­noons and watch cars go by. I was for­tu­nate enough to be home one of these after­noons and watch them do this dai­ly rit­u­al. I par­tic­u­lar­ly loved watch­ing Mabel in her awe­some hat dig­ging dirt and giv­ing it to mama. Good times.
