It's a cold week in New Jersey

Here is Anabelle, having a staring contest with her new giraffe friend.  She is more alert everyday and has started to coo.  Love it!  She is most smiley in the morning.

Lily wanted to "help" me make pretzels.  I initially told her no, knowing how messy it would be, I was in a hurry, she had on her new hoodie from Janna, etc.  I easily relented when she said, "Mommy, I help you!  You'll be SO HAPPY!"

Here is the 'during' picture of Lily's room during the shelving project.  I'll keep you posted!
