Lucy's comment of the day

The Ls found a bouncy ball in the drawer at the hotel and (na-course) are fighting over it.

Lulu: LILLIE give that to me you jealous girl.
L: NO, I had it first!
Lulu: You give that to me NOW, I am counting to three and then you get a time-out from me.
ONE, TWO, THREE, four, five, sixteen, eleventeen !!!!
Fine, I do it again .... One, two, three ....

.... And she is still counting ....

Lulu's outfit of the day

Oh how I LOVE it when my Issie dresses up!!!

Every morning when I help L to get ready for school Lulu disappears in her closet and comes out in the most craziest outfits ever to have come upon your eyes. 

Today I loved particularly the choice of high socks combined with the Ariel high-heels.

She ALWASY accessorizes, like today with the lila (purple) wrist band and her Mermaid bracelet and matching lila headband, na-course!

And she L-O-V-E-S to pose and dance on the street ... just make sure EVERYBODY notices her!

Love that part of my day ... always a surprise!

Don't love the look of her closet comes night time though.
Usually 80% of it's contents have been pulled out and spread out all over the room.

Her answer is: "It's not easy to choose the right outfit Mama!"

What would I do without my Ls? Life would be SO boring!!!

Lulu's outfit of the day

Who would have EVER guessed???

Not in a million years did I expect Lulu to run in the kitchen wearing Ls "Buzzie" outfit.

She wears the matching "I am TROUBLE" face expression too.

The way she looks is the way she acts right now ...

oh so "very" lovely!

Can you say FIT? If not, feel free to come over and I can show you how it looks. 

Any time will work well, she can pull it off twice an hour, three if you are lucky enough.

Just today we had three within two hours, two of which occurred at Dance School while we were waiting for L (she had her first Gymnastics class today and was SUPER excited!). 

Just by the looks of all the other MOMs I knew I was the "envy" of all of them.

Lulu's outfit of the day

This one is for you, FGF!!! 

Perfect, in the spirit of Pearl Harbor Day 

... VERY patriotic!!!

Your one and only Fairy God Daughter posing just for you!!!

Sorry, we switched hands there .. the heart is on the other side :)

Standing Tree pose ala ballet

first position and plie

Love the look from the back ... Lulu picked this out herself (of course!) at our favorite Second-Hand-Store.

She said it's the "Ameri Flag dancing suit". This thing is so hideous but if anybody can pull it off and make it look good - it's Lulu!!!

this is the way we do the plie, do the plie, do the plie ....la-la-lalal-lal-lala at Ballet School

We hope you enjoyed it Marlan!

 We were thinking of you hard when we took these pics.

Sending lots of L-O-V-E to you and the rest of the H-Team.

We miss you very much, especially now during the holiday season :(

Lulu's outfit of the day

After a short break she is back in business! This is a new BEST in show for me!

Lulu was SO VERY LUCKY and received this AMAZING outfit today from L's little friend Anjali's mom.
Anjali's mom was in India for a month and just returned. Anjali's grandma was here to watch her grandkids while mom was out of country / continent and Lulu just FELL IN LOVE with her (we all did!).

She was in awe of Grandma Bhela's amazing Indian couture and kept talking about it over and over.
She drew pictures for her and made ornaments ... everything she made in the last few weeks was for Anjali's Grandma.

And then today we were showered with these WONDERFUL gifts from India.
Lulu has been wearing it all afternoon. It's so pretty and the detail is absolutely amazing.
I can't imagine how much hand-work went into this outfit.

I love the traditional, Indian clothing. It's so colorful and pretty! Much more fun than Levis and t-shirt (that would be me :(

Showing it off BIG time!

 

doing the Cat Walk

LOVING the scarf!!!

Of course she added her own flair in form of COWBOY BOOTS :)

check out the pretty sparklers and the detail work

so SUPER pretty!

Thank You Dear Bhela Family!

Thank you Nisha for bringing this all the way from India. That was so VERY thoughtful of you!!!

Thank You Grandma Bhela for all your warm smiles and kind words for my Lulu and Lillie.

They both just adore you!!

We feel so very honored to have received these wonderful, wonderful gifts!

We must get together soon so you can see how much joy you have brought our little Lucy by showering her with this wonderful outfit.

Thank You so VERY much!!!

Lulu and family

Lulu's outfit of the day

Actually, this was from yesterday.

This is how my little fashionista went to church yesterday morning :)

She rocked out in her lila hat to the wonderful choir music.

Thank you auntie Nimi for this awesome hat!!! As you can see 

SHE LOVES IT!!!

Leave it to her ... she brings a smile even to the most grumpiest pew-kneeler ;)

Lulu's outfit of the day

Lulu's posts have become extreme-competition since Jakob jumped right in,

BUT she still can pull it off!

Take a peak at her outfit of the day ...

Madonna and Cindy Lauper would be so proud!!!

We found these gloves this morning and she wore them ever since.

So very stylish!!!

She added a bit of color by wearing her orange tutu instead of the lila one, 

and her striped stockings of course.

All the other little girls wear light rose with white nylon stockings or maybe black.

.... and then there is Lulu ...

A conversation between mother and child:

Anke: Jakob, schau mal. 

Jakob: Nein, ich kann nicht. Ich muss Geld verdienen.

Translation:

Anke: Jakob, look at me.

Jakob: No, I can't - I have to earn money!

Lulu's outfit of the day

It's been a while since we had one of Lulu's outfit posts,

but I was lucky to get these shots.

She is so stinking cute!!!
