This past week

I've been crocheting. I was trying out new patterns for hats and headbands. My friend is having a baby in a couple of months so I want to send her some things. My girls get all of my first attempts. I also made a hat with a giant 6 layer flower, but I haven't assembled it.

I made Alexa a hat like this too, but pink with a white bow.

I tried out a few different flower patterns. Not sure how I like the crochet band; I might switch to elastic.

We went to the park. Saturday we went to two parks. Alexa slept through all of it.

Alexa decided maybe she does like nuks again. This little girl is so different than her sister. She never wanted a pacifer until she was 5 months old. Then she liked them for about a week. A few days ago she found some and has been occasionally liking them, so we'll see. Maybe it is only because she is teething. Her top two teeth are coming in. She is walking around everywhere and babbling. Natalia didn't say no until she was about two and a half, and Lexa says it all the time along with uh oh, whoa whoa whoa, mama, and dada.

We baked. Talia and I made cookies. I used the recipe that came with the cookie cutters, but it wasn't very good.
