almost one



Mira's Birthday




Leora's friend, Mira, invited baby friends to the butterfly exhibit at the the Museum of Natural History where her dad works. Leora was enthusiastic about the butterflies but didn't like it when one landed on her mom's head.

Where's Leora Diza?



last mom/baby yoga class






These pictures are from the first of December when Leora and her mom took their last mom/baby yoga class. Now that Leora is up and walking around Leora's mom has to find toddler classes.

who's the baby?


Even though the cats have accepted Leo-di as one of the family, this photo from Nov. 16th shows Mokster still trying to reverse the order of things.

purse


This photo from Nov.10 shows how Diza loves to fill up a purse with essential items and walk around the house with it on her arm. In fact, that is just what she's up to and the time of this posting, carrying some books in a leopard-print pocketbook.

Mermamma!

This week Leo-di's Mermamma came to town! She brought her two sons, Isaac O and Eben A, and her husband, Kiko, joined us later. Leo-di's Grandma and Grandpa were also in town, celebrating their 22nd anniversary. It was a fabulous, noisy week.

Funmi's house




Last weekend Leora Diza went to Funmi's house. She loved the spicy rice and fish that Funmi's mom made for dinner! She also enjoyed meeting Funmi's friend, CJ, and seeing Aunt G and Uncle Aaron. To top it all off, she got some wonderful polka-dotted presents!
