Brownbonnets?

LL, earlier this week, fascinated with the acorns in our backyard
AG, on her 1st birthday (4-2-05), fascinated with the bluebonnets in Austin

Notice any similarities? As I watched LL with the acorns, I was reminded of this day with AG over a year and a half ago. We couldn't get her to take her eyes off the flowers for anything! Of dozens of bluebonnet pictures, there may be one where she's not completely focused on the bright blooms. Understandable, right? They are beautiful, and this spring I am sure they'll be yet another thing to miss about Texas. (Unless, of course, we can time a trip back to visit just right!) LL seems to find the millions of acorns in our backyard equally interesting, however, which is kind of cute but also dangerous, since she still loves to put everything in her mouth and these little treasures are perfectly chokable! So we keep a close eye on her while she keeps a close eye on them. Gran showed AG how their little caps fit on like hats, so instead of sweet baby pictures in the midst of a field of bluebonnets, with LL we'll have them in a yard of brownbonnets.
