We had a little accident during dinner tonight. While I was moving the spoon toward Elle's mouth she tried to rub her eyes. As a result, carrots all over the face. She's a pretty good eater these days. She seems pretty willing to eat anything, so far. We'll see how it goes once we try to introduce those lovely pureed peas and turkey dinners. Yuck. 
Better bundle up in Chicago. We had quite a big snow yesterday with another one on the way.
I'm not quite sure what to do with this child's hair. She woke up from her nap yesterday and looked like this. It just keeps getting longer and fluffier. The bows aren't cutting it anymore, because they just don't hold enough. I've started to use tiny rubber bands, but since she can't sit up on her own quite yet I feel like I'm wrestling with her to get them in. I guess we'll just have to wait out this crazy hair period until we get to the pig-tail stage and then eventually the braid stage. I knew having a girl was going to be complicated. If she were a boy I would probably go straight to the mohawk stage. Oh, grandma would love that!
