I think that's how you say dress-up/costume...

Anyway, Vera is really into her dress-up box lately, coming up with all sorts of fancy combinations.  She plays pretty well by herself, lost in make-believe worlds. I love love seeing imagination at work!!  She also puts on nightly performances where we have to sit on the couch with most lights off as she dances ballet around the room or sings a modified Cinderella or Tangled song.

 I thought this fancy footwear was pretty special!



 a little friend from church who we are trading babysitting with:


she tied this one on herself!  
she can now tie bows and is pretty proud of the new skill.


rapunzel is a big theme - see her loonnnng hair?


We got to see Stella and her mom a couple times just after Christmas!  It was really wonderful to see them, felt like no time at all had passed.. Stella is starting Kindergarten in the next month - it is so neat to hear all the Dutch she is learning!!  Did you know knuffle [as in Knuffle Bunny] means hug in Dutch?? I love that :)  Anyway, the girls didn't skip a beat and got right to playing - not even any of their usual sibling-like bickering :)  Vera talks about Stella a lot still - wouldn't it be fun to visit them someday?


oops accidentally uploaded this one of edie putting pennies in the piggy bank...
