This is today's shoe selection. Julianna has taken to selecting shoes right after her first diaper change. I think she just likes putting them on and does use any great criteria in her selection process. She loves to stand up and put on her shoes like a big girl slipping into shoes. She has started wearing the shoes more consistently as well. Up until now, we would put the shoes in her diaper bag and put them on at the destination because she would inevitably get them off in the car.
Here we are, bed hair and shoes. She has a sock on her hand. She caught her fingers in the door and has a bad boo boo on one finger. The sock is so she will not pull the band aid off. The experience did not in any way change her habit of closing and opening doors.

Yesterday, or maybe Sunday, she decided to eat bananas like the adults in the house and not cut up on her plate. Emily Post would be aghast that anyone in our house eats bananas like this, but I'm sure it is not the only uncouth activity we partake in.

Today we took part in that great American privilege--voting. We had a "I Voted" sticker and I was going to get her picture in it, but we lost it. They just don't stick quite so well after you pull them off five or six times.

We scheduled her baby dedication. It will be July 29. That means about seven weeks for mommy to finish her dress. I guess I should go start...

Maybe it's time to baby proof the door knobs of all the doors?

Ah-a shoe lover!! You are going to be in trouble when she gets older! Jessica loves to try on shoes when we shop and at one point expected us to buy her all the shoes she loved.
