Princess Layla



Once Upon a Time... There was a little girl named Layla. She was a lively, happy girl who loved everyone and even had a special place in her heart for all the "ish ish" (fishies) and "kee kee's" (kitties). She liked to spend her days decorating her palace with all of her blocks, making sure to place them in the most creative of places (like in the toilet and in my shoe). Princess Layla is on a very flexible diet consisting of anything from bananas (hopefully not smashed into the carpet) to that random cracker/cookie/cheerio that she strategically hid for a later snack. Sneaky sneaky. The princess is very concerned about hygiene and makes sure to put in her royal request for a "bah!" (bath) every chance she gets. Her standard for clean is quite high. So high, that she has taken up sweeping as a new hobby. And if you're lucky, you can catch one of her daily dance performances, which mainly occur while listening to rap. We do not question her preferences. (No, I don't LET her listen to rap. But if she hears even a second of it while we're changing stations. She'll bust out a booty shake or two). Our Princess sure is a kind little soul, who will reward your good service with a snuggle and slobbery kiss at the end of the day. Although.... if you cross her, you will have to deal with her alter-ego, Layla the Wicked Witch of the Rex!!! And she'll pinch your leg and throw a crayon at your face. 



(This was taken on Day 2 of our drive home from WA. I just put her hat on and she senses another long day in the car, hence the frustration exploding out of her head)
