March {WA R EW?}

March has come and gone with no blog to be had, mostly because, this little one it giving me a run for my money, or should I say for my computer. Computers (all electronics for that matter) and toddlers don't match and are not worth the fight. So blogging happens when Lulu in sleeping and pictures only happen with the phone. Lately, I have been going to bed when Lu does and our weekend have been filled with napping on the run, which leaves us here is April.

In March, Luella was looking for everything..."mama wa r ew?" translation , mom were are you? She would look for Papa, blanket, food, baby, Elmo, you name it. It was, and is, her way of asking for what she wants.  March was also full of "No." Common, I no (ha!). Overall, her vocabulary is increasing daily. My current favorite is "mee-mee, mama" which means excuse me, mama. This is always stated with in the sweetest voice, a tilt of the head and with the slightest under-bite. She will be patience and keep asking excuse me until you move. Now when anything is in her way, mee-mee trash, mee-mee clothes, mee-mee stroller, until one of us move it for her.

Here is a little recap of the past month(s) adventures
.
This little girl loves her meat. This is proof. She is all about taking things into her own hands, "literally."

 Baby legs...yum!

 Best Friends, already playing dress up...

Her first juice box, all by herself. The "cheese" smile tells she is pleased. The mom is please because it is on a tile floor at a hotel.

The Living Desert with the Hickey's, although we only have a picture with the giraffes. Luella wants you to know that they were eating num-na.

Seal World at Dog and Cat Show, on a weekend adventure to Ya-Ya's for Aunt Megan's Birthday...

 and the Turtles! Check out more Sea World fun here!

Playtime....Stickers are a fav of the moment.

Coloring is another, but what she loves even more is for Papa to ask her to get a specific color crayon and then bring it to him. She usually brings the wrong color, but still asks to keep playing. She has blue and green down pretty well and we are working on the rest.
Mom's wallet is the winner. In fact she grabs it and say "Nu Nu's wallet." Cute huh, she calls herself Nu Nu and lately, just Nu!!!

 And finally, a kitchen of her own from Bunya!!!!

Like I have said before, she is all girl...stickers, coloring, purses and cooking! Well, except for in this picture...the fauxhawk lives on!

We visited the Discovery Science center and Elmo. I am pretty sure she would just rather see him on TV...This was as close as we got. I can't blame her, he does have a certain creepiness about him in this picture.

Little Lamby!!! I love her in this jacket and I love that she always wants the hood up when she wears it.

It's official....I am a mom, here is the proof....

and Luella is growing up fast. Just yesterday she decided I am "Mommy." I have always been Mama...and know I always will be, but Mommy just makes her seem so old, but at least she does say it real cute. 

I thank God for this cute girl everyday. She tell's Jesus Thank You every night, followed by a 'Aaaamennn" I think she is thanking him for me too!
