training chopsticks

from mimi yi-yi. cool, right?

i wish i had my video camera

this weekend, when amelia was "reading" the sheet music for mary had a little lamb, "playing" it on the piano, and singing too. it was almost like she knew what she was doing.

amelia and alicia

we spent the weekend in LA, and amelia spent lots of quality time with her cousin alicia. it was very sweet watching alicia attempt to "teach" amelia how to draw, how to blow bubbles, how to play piano, among other things.

reading "hey wake up!" and "my friends"

reading "time to pee"

overheard

A: i NEED to go for a run, momma. I'm stretching, and then I'm going to run to the park. Meet me at the waterfall, ok? [Runs into the dining room.] Oh wait, there's no park here!

favorite new toy: the woody click farm

poppa and amelia spent some time on a rainy sunday afternoon corralling the sheep into a pen, arranging the farm workers just so, and landscaping the area around the house. truth be told, i'm not sure who loves the woody click farm more--amelia or poppa.
