and then, over breakfast, talking with dad...

isn't that interesting.

the same subject comes up again...

"cooking"

well, at least it seems the parents have the same reaction to the littlest arsonist's desires.

first thing on the first day of nursery

the first words out of Lilah's mouth were:

"today i'm going to school!"

and then we had this little chat

and it came to light that Lilah was looking forward to the cooking part of nursery...

nail polish!

lilah is very good at not touching wet nail polish.

dad was not too upset at the ever-present proof of his daughter's growing up.

and she's pretty happy about it, too.

presents from sarah

anyone out there who can recreate this dress once lilah is too big (tonia.tonia.tonia) i will be forever indebted to your creativity and genius. this dress, from sarah, from paris, makes lilah look oh so continental.

and you know what?

it really suits her.

thank you sarah, for everything.

good luck this winter... in Sweden! (which, by the way, is colder than summer in scotland...)

xoxo again

there was an evil swan. and not enough battery.

the swan was hissing at the dogs who were walking by with their owner.

with BIG wings.

posing in Luss

strike a pose...

looking good...

yoga-table-yoga

possibly climbable

now that's funny.

loch lomond: two

on the second day of sarah's visit we went back to loch lomond.

it was a nice day.

it looks more like sarah and lilah are related than we are!

after swimming in the loch, it's a good idea to eat some food.

very focused.
