jeans and binkies

our girls are growing up, finally convinced zoe to wear her jeans to school.  think it is the second time i have got her to wear them since we bought them.  luckily we bought them big.  funny thing, once she gets them on, she likes them.  it is just getting them on her!

 then mormor is heading to the states so she offered to take all of eijla´s binkies and give them to the little babies in the states that needed them.  she was such a big girl about it searched the house and put them all in a bucket for mormor!  she is really excited to share them with the american babies.

monica is corrupting my child!

okay, so it is not totally her fault. but ever since she saw that maya had fingernail polish on, she has been talking about going to maya´s and painting her fingernails. i mean talking nonstop. looks like i got myself a real girly girl. anyway, she had monica paint both her fingers and toes, and i thought she sat amazingly still for a 2.5 year old, though it is tough watching my little girl grow up so fast! she is very proud of her sparkly nails now. she parades around showing me all the time. "samma som maya här" (i have the same as maya).

zoe moves in...

zoe has been basically sleeping in our room for the last two years, and we decided it was time for her to move out. so i finally cleaned all of our crap out of her room and moved hers in. finally at the age of 2+, zoe gets to take possession of her own room. i even made matching curtains and a duvee cover with none other than a fishy motive. we had bought her hanging glass stars and balls in egypt more than a year and a half ago. finally we hung them up at the end of her bed and she loves to swing them around, however she sometimes forgets she has pushed them, and when they come flying back in her face she is completely taken by surprise. enjoy your own space zoe!
