Here Comes the Sun(day and Monday)!

80 degrees, eh? Wasn't it snowing last week?

OG was thrilled to bust into her summer gear...not necessarily because she's gung-ho to wear new (or new-to-her) clothes, but because she just realized SHE HAS LEGS! #winterbabyproblems

In case anyone else is unaware, there are these things called legs that live under your pants...they usually only come out for special occasions like diap changes and baths, but now they are out FOR DAYS AT A TIME! EEEEEEEEE!!!!**

**please note that OG had legs last summer as well, but she didn't really pay them any attention.

I knew OG was happy about having legs when she kept rubbing them with her hands while trying to walk - it was adorable.  Then, on Sunday she realized that a person can use a PEN to DRAW ON THESE RANDOM LIMBS?!? WHAAA?!?! AMAZING.

It's far less amazing when momma realizes it's a gloppy old pen that is smearing all over.  However, that didn't keep her from using her best model pose to show off her new skin art:

Strike a pose!

The weather over the weekend was lovely, but the Monday morning forecast promised the warmest day of the week. Yes...I was a rude momma and still dressed OG in pants and cardigan because it was only 55 degrees at the moment, but shorts were available for later in the day.

In the AM, OG was wearing:
-Yellow butterfly-sleeved shirt with pink buttons and pink embroidered cat (thanks to Ms. Charlie!)
-Navy cropped leggins with ruffle
-Purple jelly shoes! Don't call it a comeback... (thanks again to Ms. Charlie sharing her past fabulous finds!)
-Green floral hairbow (from the Claire's outting with Ms. J)
-Pink cardigan with rosettes (hand-me-down from...Sydney, maybe?)

"Chh(eese)!"

"Didn't you already take my picture a minute ago?"

Later in the day the temperature jumped to  80+ so OG ran around outside for a bit, so she ditched that cardigan and changed into her yellow polka-dot shorts.  Normally this wouldn't be blog-worthy news (even though it IS a wardrobe change!)...BUT...Awee also decided to give OG her first pair of big-girl piggy tails!

Warning: look away if you don't think you can handle the ultimate in cuteness.

Are you prepared?

Are you sure?

Ok...

...if you're sure you're sure...

PIGGY TAILS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XOXOXOXOXOXOX!!!!!!!!!

You can't tell in this photo, but she was still rocking her "knee tattoos" from the day prior.  That old, clumpy ink didn't want to budge! I STILL have a spot on my hand that won't scrub off, but it's buried deep in my elder person hand wrinkles.

More importantly: MAY I EAT HER FACE?!?!?! AHHHH!!!!  Just a nibble...

I'd also settle for an arm.

Nom. Nom.

Other fun things that happened on Monday at Auntie C's:
-OG tried her first matzo ball and loved it!
-Auntie C tried to paint OG's toenails...one big toe later, OG decided that wasn't her thing.
-OG maaaaay have totally TINKED ON THE BIG GIRL POTTY!  Whaaa?!? I KNOW. Let's hope this is a sign that diapers will soon become extinct!

Fingers crossed, faithful reader(s)! Fingers crossed.

EDIT 4/25/16:
I have had 3 separate people tell me that Ms. OG looks like "Boo" from Monsters Inc. when she wears her hair in pigtails, so I have decided to create a side-by-side. Let me just say: she may have to dress as Boo for Halloween this year! ;)
