A Mind of Her Own

I've taken some interesting pictures of Megan lately that just prove this little girl has a style and mind of her own. 

Megan likes to wear her rubber boots when she rides her bike.  She's learned how to actually ride it and circles the culdesac with her tiny bike, huge helmet and her rubber boots that are always on the wrong feet.  The neighbors just smile and laugh when they see her. 

This is what Megan has worn the past 4 days.  She calls it her "pinks" and if I put her in something else she takes it off and finds this outfit in the laundry basket.  It's covered in jam, peanut butter, honey and spaghetti sauce, but she doesn't care one bit.  She's also been into wearing these sunglasses and always makes sure her baby has a matching pair. 

     The obsession has begun...like mother, like daughter. 

I snuck this picture the other day of Megan reading to her baby.  The stack of things next to her were the baby's toys, food and clothes and she transfered them from room to room all day long.  It kept her very busy.  I guess she's figured out that mommies are supposed to stay very busy because that's certainly what she sees from me.... and she makes sure of it.   

Jordan's First Concert

Last night I had a symphony concert and since it was a children's concert, we decided to bring Jordan along.  We weren't really sure how he would do since the concert started at about the same time he goes to bed, but he did great and loved it...and I loved having him there too.  I loved seeing his big bright eyes and sweet smile when I walked out on the stage and saw him waving at me.  I loved looking down during my rests and seeing him looking through his binoculars, which made me smile because he was sitting right up front in the second row.  I loved looking down during the slow movement of the second half and seeing him sleeping on Andrew's lap.

One of the pieces we played was called, "The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra" and it featured all of the instruments in the symphony.  Jordan informed me after the concert that his favorite instrument is the string bass...not my pick since they're so expensive and a pain to transport.  Maybe I can lean him toward  the cello instead.  We've got a few years to figure it out.  One thing's for sure...Jordan will now be a regular to my symphony concerts...and that makes me happy!!!
