Happy 16 months Miss Vita G.

Her hair stayed like that for two days.. Even after a bath.. She decided it was funny to smear her peanut butter and jelly sandwich all over her face and eventually her arms.

This is her latest hiding place. (Behind the bookshelf.) IF we can't find something we go to all of her hiding places. Usually finding what we are looking for. Although her daddy's bus pass is still missing.. The last time it went missing I found it in one of her many hiding places.

"I do it." This is the phrase she expresses to me on a daily basis. Miss Independent standing on a Dora the Explorer scooter with no help.

Besides her hiding places she likes to sit in drawers and cupboards. This was taken in the midst of moving while i was packing boxes.

THis is the cheapest toy! Kept her busy for a good 20-30 minutes straight.

We were trying to get her to smile.. Wouldn't have anything of it at the time. I Think she's amazed that we caught her playing the box of goodies.

"Please mom, I don't want to kimchi(smile) for you. I just want to play with the camera." Prior to this picture she was smiling really hard but it soon faded after i told her that she couldn't play with the camera.

No, Miss Vita isn't posing with Mulan and her friend at Disney Land.. She spent a good two hours with her daddy at Sakura Con. You will have to ask her dad about these characters and Sakura Con. I couldn't tell you.. I must say, the costumes were really creative.


We are rapidly preparing for our new little arrival and was surprised to find out he will be coming almost three weeks earlier than planned. Miss Vita has been attached to my hip and senses a big change in her life. She still kisses my belly and looks for "baby" by lifting up my shirt and is constantly rubbing my belly.

Vita Graces amazes us everyday with new leaps in progress and still finds time for naps and bedtime. Lately, she's been watching a lot of soccer and probably does more trash talking and cheering than her dear old mom.(Can we say a bit competitive?) We watched ski racing last weekend and Miss V was imitating their arm movements and was telling them to "Go-Go-Go!" I think we have one sporty girl on our hands. Her love is still with dogs. She has no fear whatsoever and likes to growl at them fiercely.

Children's museum

We have been offline due to a disagreement with our hard drive but we are finally back up and running.. This last weekend we went to vita's cousin's 2nd birthday at the Children's museum. Vita LOved it! *Notice..we really tried pulling her hair back but it kept coming out... By the end of our trip she had one pigtail instead of two.. This was our third birthday party of the weekend and it was hard to get her to smile really big for the camera....

Vita Grace has been very busy these days and LOves to run and climb. She enjoys going to the bookstore to read with mom and dad and play with Thomas the Tank engine. Vita is very chatty and still calls mom "Tess." She is very excited for her little brother's arrival and is preparing for it by taking care of her own baby dolls at home. Lately, when Vita wants something or doesn't get her way, she says, "Oh poor baby.. oh baby baby. oh baby.. oh poor baby."

Happy end of January

It's been over two months since our last post of pictures and she seems to be changing even more.. Vita grace officially took off running at 10months and has not stopped. She's very chatty and loves to be social.



Vita Grace loves to dance and we caught her trying to boogie down in her stroller...
