Hip and legs felt a little tight this morning so I took it nice and easy and just enjoyed the 40 degree sunshine.  Woah, what a beautiful day!!!  Did lots of stretching, rolling, core/hip work afterwards which felt divine.

I love it when kids enter the "imitate everything Mom or Dad does" stage.  As I was getting ready this morning my 19 month old daughter grabbed my mascara, lifted up her shirt, and pretended to rub it under her armpit.  (Obviously confusing the mascara for deodorant.)  Its a good thing the lid was one or she may have ended up with some sweet looking painted-on armpit hair.

UPDATE: I just had to add a photo of the cute lil' one as I'm going through 2009 photos, this one jumped out at me.  How distinguished she is!  

 


and a couple more for good measure

Cute. Once she starts making the upside down peace signs while puckering up is when you have to look out for her.

What I want to know is, why are you making all those strange faces all the time (that she is imitating) ;-)

She is very very cute! Genetics are hard to beat!

I actually never look at my kids with a straight face. Mostly I look at them with photo #2's expression.

J/K, No really this child came up with those faces all on her own. It was strange; one day I was just playing with my cell phone camera and she would not stop being crazy! There are like 12 more pictures similar to these from that day and not one with a normal looking face.
