Violet dressed herself completely, from head to toe. She chose every piece herself, and emerged from her room a fully-dressed fashion statement (kudos for finding and squeezing into last year's socks, kiddo). I can't remember her ever assembling her own outfit and getting all the way into it without any help before. No surprise that she's wearing her "princess shirt." She would wear it every day if I could keep up with the laundry. I'm reasonably sure she pulled it out of the hamper.

We found a caterpillar at Staples. Actually, Violet found a caterpillar, on our ream of paper, IN our stroller, at Staples. It wasn't until her repetition of "Mommy, there's a bug on the book. MOMMY there's a BUG on the BOOK!" reached a fever pitch that I pulled myself away from the clearance table to try to understand what she was talking about. After I overreacted in a rather embarrassing way, we took her (the caterpillar) outside and put her in the bushes so she could go turn into a butterfly.

Daphne's first celery teether. She LOVED it. I can tell she's ready for solid food, though I am NOT ready for her to be ready for solid food. She has that quizzical look that babies her age get when they watch the rest of the family eat. She sometimes opens her mouth as I raise my spoon to eat when she's sitting in my lap. Cutie Pie.

Doesn't she make this look fun?

Afternoon walk to Staples to get our free 300 labels (Woot coupons!). Violet walked there, then (because I was in a hurry) reluctantly rode back while I wore Daphne. I don't think I'll do that again.
