Weeks 29 & 30 of 52

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. We're over two weeks behind now. And I've not been very good....well, last week I was but the week before I was not in a picture taking groove. So I've had to cheat. Again. You will get some "flashback" pictures as well as some "filler" pix - they represent what was going on that day....maybe just were not taken on that day.

As usual....pix are from the most recent to the oldest. Hold onto your socks - this might be so thrilling that I knock them off!

Week 30 of 52

We spent this week going all-natural on the hair: finger-combing only, trying out different products.....so lots of hair pix this week. And I'll do a hair post soon to let you know what I learned this week.

Just a picture of Mari's hair in the morning...when it looks tame.

Mari hit her head at school. On another kid's head. While they were trying to kiss. Oy.

She asked me for "cold green peas" to make her boo-boo feel better. BTW - there was no actual boo-boo to be seen.

Just another hair picture - curls looking luscious.

You guessed it - another hair picture. After being soaked in the sprinkler.

Birthday party at the roller rink. Mari rocked it - she skates much better without holding my hand but she couldn't be convinced of that. Luckily one of her little friends from school was there, so they skated together.

Birthday party/cookout for a friend. I love that Mari is the only one looking at the camera in this picture. Cute.

Just playing around with some pix.

Week 29 of 52

Ahem....a few "filler" pix here. Sorry.

2010: 07/22

Just feel like Mari's coloring is getting SO much better. She is really learning to take her time.

Flashback picture!! Yup, this is from last year on this date.

Mari still loves watercoloring best of all her artsy skills.

2010: 07/20

Took a bunch of videos this day - Mari singing Bible songs in the tub. Something about the tub puts her in a singing good mood. Here's the only pic I took this day....Mari relaxing and singing.

Can you believe how little she was? We had only been home about 6 months here.

What a little ray of sunshine!

2010: 07/18

Probably my favorite non-natural style. So beautiful, so easy, so "Mari"

2010: 07/17

Oh so tired.

2010: 07/16

I told Mari to pose on the rocking chair, so I got the "monster face." Sigh.

Are your socks still on? Was that exciting or what? I promise to try a little harder in the coming weeks. I promise to also put up some posts that are real posts....we are long overdue for a real update. So stay tuned.
