watch out boy she'll chew you up....

I'm speaking of my soon to be middle child! I have to post a couple of pictures of her, to not only be fair (see post about MJ below) but because she's just so, well, hilarious and adorable! She is the complete opposite of her flashy sis and i love every bit of it! She makes no bones about how she's feeling, is a tough kid, but so sweet at the same time. She gives you looks that will terrify you one minute (see below) but then melt your heart the next. Molly is agreeable, loving, strong (she can drink 1 gallon of milk in a single day). She calls her milk "money" because, yes, it really is that good! She really doesn't get that her world is about to be turned upside down with the addition of a new sibling, but i have a feeling that she will be able to roll with it...because that's what she does. Here are some pictures below..and watch out, she'll chew you up but give you a big slobbery kiss right after it.

this gallery in the reading nook off of the family room in Kristen's house is ever changing. It has been growing since before she happened to have almost-three adorable youngins to fill up our frames and at the rate she's g(r)o(w)ing it's sure to continue to do so! seeing our frames housing the very essence of what stewart & james is all about - family, good times, love, memories... makes my heart well up with pride!

She was born with glitter shoes on….

Or at least she should have been - then I would have known what I was in for!! I’m speaking of my 3 year old. I was trying to think of ways to make our work space pictures more interesting and mistakingly(?) thought out loud around my 3 yr old… she jumped in with the idea of her being in the pics too!! I thought – why not? Plus, I love a chance to talk about her. First some background about me – I’m not into clothes, makeup, or really anything that’s particularly “girlie”, so I have no idea where this child could even come from. She is so grown up – loves sparkles, glitter, makeup, rainbows, fairies, she IS a princess, prances when she runs, subconsciously crosses her legs when she sits, wants to name my unborn child “sparkle princess rainbow darling” and call her "ballerina" for short. I don’t know where she came from, but she is a ball of sunshine, and brightens my day without fail. She may not be like me in any way, in fact, sometimes I think she’s all the good parts I was missing. Anyway, enough about her (although she would tell me to keep going). Here are some pics of my sparkling 3 year old (oh, and our work space that happens to be in my basement)

And finally, I let her take some pictures of me..granted, I deleted the ones where she made me "dance like a ballerina". We compromised on getting a shot where I was sitting instead.

Girl Looks Good!

the following was posted in response to my request for a photo of Barbie: *(ok - first stop laughing. now, delete if you think this is the ugliest doll you have ever seen - it was the first one i could find and i'm not even 100% sure that it is a "barbie" i think it is though - it's well loved?!!! at least she isn't naked!)

I remember learning that my mother had Barbie dolls when she was a kid. I thought Barbie must be ANCIENT if my MOM had had one. She was 25. Barbie turns 50 this month. Before Carrie Bradshaw, before subscriptions to Vogue, W AND Elle, hell, before discovering that dress-up was even an option, it was Barbie (even if Courtney did know that Jem was cooler ;) ). Be girlie in celebration!
