Day 246: My American Girl
A shot of my american girl, holding an early birthday present, her own American Girl.
Day 241: Thinking Pixie
Grabbed this shot of Pixie thinking and concentrating while doing her homework. She looks entirely too grown up.
Day 224: Cheer Hair
My daughter swinging in the backyard on a warm afternoon. I have no idea what you call those things in her hair, but her mother called it her “cheerleader hair”.
Day 219: Pixie’s New Sneakers
These are the new sneakers Pixie got for school.
They met the 3 requirements:
- Pixie wanted them
- Mommy liked the price
- Daddy thought they were cool
Yeah, I’m pretty sure only the 1st two reasons really mattered.
Day 218: Sleeping Beauty
Pixie fell asleep on the couch, and I couldn’t help grabbing a couple of shots. I can’t believe my little girl is already in 1st Grade. Sigh.
Day 216: Cute Little Baker
Grabbed this shot while Pixie was making a cake with her Papa. She really makes a cute, little baker, doesn’t she?
Day 215: Ice Cream Surprise
You always have to be careful when your daughter tells you she fixed you a dessert or snack. This ice cream sundae wasn’t exactly what I was expecting. Gotta love Play-Doh.
Day 198: Hangin’ with Smurfette
Pixie used her garage sale income to purchase a Smurfy new friend from Build-A-Bear.
Day 195: Nosebleed
Poor Pixie had a pretty bad nosebleed, and while her mother quickly helped her get to the bathroom to take care of it, all I could think to do was grab my camera. I’m pretty sure the look she is giving me captures her thoughts on my participation.
Day 191: Little Red Ninja
I think Pixie found the perfect upgrade from Little Red Riding Hood. No wolf is gonna mess with a ninja.
