Faces of Jane

Jane has settled nicely into her new daycare. During the first few days, they were concerned that she didn't talk, and we told them to just wait, she likes to observe and then dive in. By day three, her teachers had more than an earful and were definitely not concerned anymore! At the end of week one, her teachers also shared with us that Jane likes to make a lot of funny faces throughout the day. Now, we've known this, because she makes lots of crazy faces at home and it cracks us up. The thing we didn't really realize is that this is a direct reflection of us -we definitely encourage, exacerbate this, spending many dinners making goofy faces at each other and laughing ourselves silly (often initiated by Jane, I might add!). Needless to say - we thought we'd share a few with you, plus some other great Jane pics from over the last month...which, for all you loyal readers out there, we promise to be better about sending you Pitt updates now that Scott and I are both settled into our new jobs...okay, no promises, but we will try! Now, let's take a look at that bella fache:


This is Jane's fishy. It goes everywhere with her. Big thanks to our good friend Dvorah for teaching Jane this gem of a skill!



This is where I typically find Jane's face these days - buried in her big girl cup! Yep, no more sippy cups for this toddler.

"What? I'm just getting ready for work with my badge and pager. Daddy, ready to go?"

"EEK" - this is probably Jane's favorite expression. A few of her favorite books (the Elephant & Piggie series and The Little Mouse, the Red-Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear) have characters who are often expressing "EEK" in the pictures. Gotta love Jane's demonstration:


Stay tuned for Faces of Jane: Halloween Edition. Jane does a mean Pumpkin face...
