woohoo! and it's the hat I made for her! Great color on her, and note how well it stretches. :) She can wear it for years to come, but only if she chooses to....
Good luck with those teeth, too.

Oh, so cute! Beautiful colors, too.
12.19.04 - 08:06 AM / 3Jeni Reno said:
Okay, she looks like she likes it.

Very Christmas-y, but also she kind of looks like an Irish paper boy!

I just wanted to wish you, Jon, Leta, and Chuck a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year--you have taught me a lot about life since I started reading a year or so ago and I wish you the best in the coming year!

Aww, Leta is adorable. :)

Gorgeous, as always

CHEEKS!

Leta is looking so much older lately! Lovely, lovely child, Heather. You are doing a fabulous job.

so next time jon wants to know what he'd look like in a red hat....he'll just ask leta.
12.19.04 - 08:15 AM / 12Ali said:
Awwww. Leta is so adorable. My mom showed your site to all her friends at work, Heather, and they think you're absolutely hilarious. She especially thought the premarital sex/coffee thing was funny...and felt the need to repeat it like six times just to prove to me that it was just that funny.

Look at those eyes! That green is amazing; the shirt really brings it out. Don't worry, none of my girls took a liking to anything on their heads. Such a cute idea, but it was whipped off within seconds.
12.19.04 - 08:17 AM / 14Jonna said:
OMG, that's a priceless glare.
"Mom. I TOLD you not to put a hat on me. Why don't you ever LISTEN?"
12.19.04 - 08:20 AM / 15liz said:
it looks like she needs a cheek bra.
(that sort of sounds like an insult, but it's totally not. it's a lame attempt at humor. she's abso-frickin-lutely adorable. happy sunday!)
12.19.04 - 08:21 AM / 16Melissa R said:
Yup, she is definitely the cutest kid I've ever seen. Although she's looking pretty pissed off. Still cute though!

Are you at the mall?
12.19.04 - 08:26 AM / 18Autumn said:
Cute. Looks like she's trying to pull it off though.

PETA wants to know how many Kermits pelts were used to make that coat.
12.19.04 - 08:29 AM / 20Dr. Johnny Fever said:
I don't blame you, Leta. I wouldn't wear that either. It looks like the devil's yarmulke.

Top 'o the mornin' to ye!
12.19.04 - 08:38 AM / 22pismire said:
I am really enjoying the color combo going on between the coat and hat. I am also enjoying the expression on Leta's face that so poignantly reads: get this damn hat off my head NOW or suffer the consequences.
12.19.04 - 08:38 AM / 23Shano said:
She's just stretching it out so that it fits when she's older . . . Like 16 or so.
12.19.04 - 08:47 AM / 24Andre said:
It would be cool if you posted the photoshop files for download to some of these pictures because I love what you do with them.
BTW: She is really cute, but I'm a guy and can't really say that out loud :p

Leta (through clenched teeth): Have I or have I not made it clear to you that there will be *consequences* for this kind of insulting behavior, Woman?
There.
Will.
Be.
No.
Headwear.
That is all. I will now have a Cheerio."

Great hat! My boys would never wear hats when they were small. Now they wear ball caps everywhere.

Babies hate hats. Say it three times fast.

"The hair! Mom, you're messing my hair! I've finally *got* some and here you are covering it up and - forget it. I'm just gonna scream."
Does anyone else think that Leta looks like Liv Tyler? (who I think is beautiful, that's s'posed to be a compliment.)
