After looking up to her big brother this past year when he joined Cub Scouts, Gigi was so excited to be part of her own troop. My little Pathfinder loves going to her meetings, wearing her uniform and singing their songs.

My Little American Heritage Girl

Eye for Fashion
Since Gigi was three and able to dress herself, she has had an amazing eye for putting outfits together.
Recently, she came up with this outfit. Although not modest, I thought it was very creative. She layered two ballet skirts for a dress and added matching accessories. What really caught my eye is that of all of the little hand bags she [...]
I Spied an Elephant in My Backyard
It is a baby Elephant…so cute, isn’t she?
We pulled out our Fall decorations today and lil Gillian found their costumes and had to try them on. Kind of like jammies or a “Snuggley” blanket, perfect for this cool, crisp Fall day.

Gillian shares the love of horses with her Nana Orton and seeing her dressed like this just mel [...]
Stars & Stripes
A vignette on the life of sweet Gillian. I cannot believe how much my baby girl has changed this year, she is just as precious as can be. She just recently danced in the production of Stars & Stripes and did such a lovely job (as did all of her girlfriends). I am so thankful that she seems to really enjoy dancing and as of now wants to [...]
Dress Up!
If you know my daughter, you know her hobby is fashion. She changes outfits at least 5 times a day, she loves clothes and loves to play dress up. Gigi’s primary love language I believe is quality time and I love to fill her cup by participating in role playing with her.
I have to admit, I like being her majesty’s daughter (pictur [...]
Girls Best Friend
I do believe that Gigi will be very sad when our sweet house guest leaves us and goes back to his family.
G loves animals very much, however with our three dogs she has to bribe, capture and hold them hostage in order to hang out with them. But, with Digory it has been completely different, he enjoys her company and all she has to do is call [...]
Hiccups
“Mommy, you know what I don’t like about hiccups?” Gillian
“What don’t you like about them Gilli?”
“I don’t like how they interrupt your words” Gillian
Amen to that!!!
Just love how she thinks about things. Love it!!!
