January 14 = Mommy & Malia Day

Liam was at the CDC today so Malia and I had a fun day together!  Obviously a fun day for us involves Target.  I have been in search of a headband that fits that will keep my hair out of my face when I work out and have bought probably 50- none of them stay on my head for longer than 2 minutes.  Here's the latest hopeful... Malia's trying it out for me here:

 On our way out to pick Liam up, Malia's hair went a little crazy.  It's not wind... just static!

October 25 = Rugby Day

Zachary has a couple girls in his company on the rugby team.  We went to the guys' rugby match yesterday but we got the times mixed up and ended up going to a match that none of his guys were playing in.  But we got this one right and we had lots of fun.  I tried to get Malia to wear a headband- she wasn't happy about it.

We packed lunch and grabbed some lunch in case the packed lunches didn't work- which they didn't- and brought the picnic blanket out.  I'm telling you- this picnic blanket has been such a great investment. 

Later, we came home and hosted the next midshipmen dinner!  Malia found her a guy willing to hold on to her.

And Liam found some gals to hang out with.

October 24 = New Headband Day

I got Malia three adorable headbands.  She's not a fan.  I'm going to keep trying and maybe eventually she'll quit fighting me so hard.

Also we saw what I thought was a green ladybug but after googling it, I've discovered it's a cucumber beetle.  You learn something new every day!
