Today Elena and I have planned a mommy-daughter day. First, off to get her hair cut off. I love her hair but she refuses to let us brush it. She was given the option to let us comb/brush her hair once a day or have it cut short to her chin. Well, her decision was a cut. Above is a before pic.
And after...quite a few inches were cut off!
Posing for a picture before we get in the car, on our way to see Peter Pan and Wendy; Elena's first musical experience. We are super excited!
Elena harnessing her powers. She really does have magic powers; they are constantly changing. Some powers include "green light power," "happiness," "jumping," and "sunshine" are among the most popular. I do love green light power. She sits in the back of the car with her hand out at the upcoming traffic light and a contorted face--most of the time the red light does turn green for her. Never doubt this girl's powers :)
One of the perks of living near a university with a drama department, there are reasonably priced performances. The fall performance at SDSU was Peter Pan and Wendy. Here we are giddy before the show. Elena enjoyed the show tremendously. Because she is 3 we had to purchase 2 tickets though she couldn't see so she sat on my lap the entire show. The first 2 rows of the theatre (off to the sides) were open to young kids and their parents. We checked it out but it was just too close to the stage for us so we sat in our assigned seats. We're looking forward to another SDSU production in the near future!
Walking back to the car, Elena couldn't resist running on the grass field. She nearly ran into the group of college kids playing.
The next few pictures are emotional pics of Elena.
Above she's getting a little cold as the sun is beginning to set.
Surprised! I mentioned that I might have a cookie in my purse :)
And to get it, she needed to give me a nice smile. Amazing the efforts we go through to get a cute picture of her :)
All tuckered out.
We had a wonderful day together!
Love the super power picture! she is so funny! :)
