The tale of the little teddy bear

Once upon a time, many years ago, there was a Little Teddy Bear who had everything a Little Teddy Bear needed to make him happy He had a comfortable home to live in. He had a comfortable bed to sleep in. And, most important of all, he had a Little Girl who loved him.
The Little Teddy Bear and the Little Girl were the best of friends. And being the best of friends, they did everything together. They played in the yard together. They took naps together.
When meals were served, they sat at the table together. When bedtime stories were read, they listened together. And then they were tucked in bed together.





Lillian just LOVES her Teddy Bear she named to be 'Gorgeous' ohhh I love it!
I cherish this.

Our little getaway ...

Our little getaway ... a few weeks ago...and it was fantastic...perfect even! No need to add all the nitty details the pictures speak for themselves! we had a blast :)

 

She is my Inspiration...

When you feel the urge to just dance.... then Dance!!


...Takes my breath! ...This is the girl who makes me ... me!

Changes and Charts...



....and so she continues to grow and learn and explore and fill her sweet little soul of love, saftey and warmth, but her 'rechargable battery (never -ever- run -out) -brain has an eager love for reading and a will to really really want to learn about anything and everything..... this is what I love about her, knowledge is such a powerful tool through out life.

Going through milestones can be fun and exciting and frustrating and sad, and breath taking, they bring out every emotion, even ones we never knew we had!

My little grub is 2 and a half and quite the miss independant, and so so advanced in her milestones it takes my breath! I mean it literally takes my breath, leaves me standing here gasping for air!! she is a  little sponge and soaks everything in!
Im so proud of her! 

As every part of her continues to grow and acheive I want to be there to reward the good and keep that forever-striving attitude alive as long as it takes ... so this month I was inspired to do a behaviour chart over @ http://tabithablue.blogspot.com/2010/10/fab-finds-return-of-behavior-chart.html 
Here you could be inspired too!
Such a great Idea!

So we started today and took a trip into town, here we got some cardboard, Paints, new brushes and she had to have 'that' apron dangling down in that willow window... and so she did.

We had so much fun and the outcome was her own perfect masterpeice and a "good girl" chart.



We just drew up a chart .. nothing fancy but I did grab the idea from here @
Also credit to Freshmommy!

If you have done or considering doing this how did it go for you?

Cherish their Milestones! :) xo
