WW: bike ride, a video

We took her out on Easter Sunday for her first bike ride outdoors. Yesterday, she asked to go back out with her bike and as we walked and as I filmed, it dawned on me: this child truly never stops talking. Heh. I've known this for quite some time (our car rides are very interesting), but looking at this video and reliving the little time we were out there, really proved it.

I'm pretty sure you should be able to make out what she's saying but just in case, I've translated it below (her side of the conversation, not mine):

you stinky Mama

standing in da dirt?

i standing in da dirt.

you standing in da dirt.

hey do you see da tightrope?

i wanna take da bike off

a tightrope? i too small

i wanna flower

i wanna pink one

Wordy Wednesday: Yesterday

a) i can't believe this is the best photo i got of her yesterday, on her 23 monthday, but the girl will only sit still for TV and those make awful pictures (this one was snapped as we were i was trying to get us to leave daycare while she played with something on the floor).
b) i can't believe... I CANNOT BELIEVE... my baby doll will be 2 in less than a month. INCREDIBLE.
c) i really am digging tracking her age milestones with a photo and some words. neato. thanks be to the Pinterest, eh.

WW: last year's 1st

holy shit was she a cutie, no? she still is, yes, but i could squish her here. she was only weeks into being an actual walking baby and only a month and some change from turning one. too fast... too too fast. oh and hey in laws, it'd be nice if this Thanksgiving you show up on time and not three hours late like last year. thanks.

Wordful Wednesday

First thing's first: I've written a new piece for Lisa's blog. Lisa, also known as LOG, is a dear friend of mine who I met years ago whilst planning our weddings. She's good people so I really hope you go over and check out her blog and my guest post over at LOG's blog.

Secondly and almost finally, I forgot to mention the weekend... this past weekend. We did a whole bunch of nothing special, yet it was awesomely amazing and fun! Nothing, and I do repeat NOTHING, makes me happier than just being with my Lovie.

And by "being" with her, I mean just sitting with her, just watching her do her thing, just playing with her, eating with her, talking with her, chasing her, reading with her, watching TV with her...

Not a day goes by when she doesn't make me feel so in awe of her and all that she knows, all that she's learning, all that she remembers.

But really, it's the insignificant moments when she's just doing whatever that leave me with tears in my eyes over how incredibly beautiful she is- inside and out. She's got such a sweet little heart. And she's so incredibly smart.

And she's mine. All mine. I'm so incredibly lucky. I get to be her Mama and ... just wow.

Enough gushing, eh. Sheesh.

Anyway and finally, THREE MORE DAYS TILL BRYAN ADAMS!!! I'm so excited. So very excited. Last time I saw him I was a couple months pregnant with Lovie and he was on his acoustic tour. And I cried so much during the show. He's so awesome and to hear him acoustically... just wow. Nothing fancy at all. Just a man who absolutely loves what he does, doing it right in front of you.  I can't wait to see if he mentions his baby girl at all. What? You didn't know the 50+ year old's baby mama just had a baby? Yup. Mirabella Bunny.

I hope you enjoy my post over on LOG's blog! And if you're stopping over for the first time because of that post, WELCOME! :)
