366 Days of Cuteness!

Squeak ‘borrowed’ Snorter’s iPod and was loving every moment of it. She wouldn’t even look at me for a photograph. She’s wearing a fun ‘Little Sister’ tee from Gymboree, fabulous Euro jeans from Petit Patapon, and mini boots by Morgan & Milo. Late in the evening when everyone was in their pajamas, the Littles were playing ‘burrito’ in daddy’s blanket. I love footie pajamas – they are the best!

Cute and comfy in her greys. Striped dress and grey cords, all from Olive Juice. Patent shoes from Pediped and cute stripey socks from Old Navy.

Squeak wore her absolutely adorable outfit from Luna Luna Copenhagen. I just love the peasant styling of the top and the sweet crochet bunny peeking out of the cargo pocket on the leg. Her coat is incredibly soft and wonderful – made by Thro (Baby Thro). Squeak is exquisitely pampered with the softest faux fur/minky fabric, satin lining, and a satin ribbon tie. Yummy! Squeak opted out of having her hair brushed this morning.

Even little squeak wears jeans sometimes and aren’t they adorable? Jeans by Premium Blu bought at Olive Juice. Top by Olive Juice.

We’ve had a few rough days with everyone still fighting our head colds. Consequently I missed a few days of photographs. But here’s little Squeak dancing around the kitchen. She’s wearing Olivia pants by Olive Juice, Hello Kitty socks from Target, and her top is from the Miniville line from Kmart. I saw this top in an advertisement last summer and knew Squeak would love a kitty top. This top was such a cross between Misha Lulu and Mini Boden, I had to get it.

Hmmm. Imitation is the best form of flattery? Jammies by Nordstrom.

I took Doodle to his first attempt at ice skating. We had a blast! Doodle and I were laughing so much. Even when he fell right onto his elbow (ow!), he took a short break and was right back onto the ice. He had no idea Mommy could actually ice skate. We loved the seal support! Doodle was able to really get going and not have to cling to the wall. When he wanted a break, he sat on the seal and I whipped him around the rink in circles. The best part of the day was when the cutest girl on the rink wanted to skate with him and he got to give her a ride on the seal. So sweet!

Doodle will never forget this!

Doodle was wearing jeans by Gymboree and a sweater by Benetton. Mommy was wearing jeans by Chicos, t-shirt and sweater from Talbots, and a beret from Olive Juice.

Snorter and Squeak were hanging out with daddy while we were at the rink.

Snorter was wearing striped lounge pants from Olive Juice, pirate shirt by the fun and funky printed shirt company ‘Mini Shatsu.’ We love how the company does limited releases of each design! Squeak was wearing a comfortable outfit by DPAM of leggings and a knit top.

Well, we are sort of ‘well’ and we’ve had a calm and happy Saturday. Squeak went shopping with me and ‘Grandma Close By’ out to Walnut Creek for a couple hours. A successful trip to Nordstrom ensued. Doodle and Snorter went with daddy out to the Lego store and they had a wonderful trip doing the ‘guy’ thing. Squeak wore her adorable tunic by Janie & Jack, navy blue leggings from Hanna Andersson, sneakers by Superga, and hat by Gymboree. I love Superga sneakers and on my two travels to Italy, I have brought home a couple pairs each time. Thank goodness they are more readily available in the US now! Snorter wore his awesome Viking shirt from Paul Frank, his ‘railroad’ pants by Tea Collection, shark hat from Gymboree, and his favorite rain boots (it hasn’t rained here in weeks). Doodle was quite wiped out by the Lego store trip, snuggled way down into the couch, but didn’t want to be left out of the photos. He’d like the world to know he was dressed like Ben 10 in his skinny jeans, black t-shirt (closet staple!), and green jacket.

A little photo disclaimer. I did NOT put the Littles on the tunnel bubbles! We have two bubbles and they were playing on them outside. They both wanted to stop playing and pose for the photograph on their bubble. It was cute!

We made it through to Friday. It was a long haul. We all stayed home from work, school, and daycare and got some much needed rest. After dinner Squeak asked me if we could go shopping now. I laughed and told her we could go shopping tomorrow. Wonder what she’ll wear to Nordy’s??? Today she wore adorable pants by Scout and a sweet ruffled top by Olive Juice to lounge around the house all day. Scout is an awesome brand based practically in my back yard – check it out!

Doodle and I ended up coming home at lunch – him from school, me from work. We hit a low point with our colds. He had a fever of 101 and I could barely talk. Snorter and Squeak made it through a day a daycare, but we were all slugs and everyone was sound asleep before 9pm. I didn’t even make it to stay up and watch my team (Go Gaels!!!!!) get even closer to the WCC!!!!!! Squeak wore a comfortable outfit today – perfect for the winter sniffles. Velour hoodie dress by Mini Boden and lounge pants by Olive Juice.
