Telescopes

Amelia and I have been using binoculars (she calls them telescopes) to look at the moon for about a year. She still has trouble figuring out the right end to look in.

Amelia went to a great birthday party for Penny Love at the Zoo this weekend. She got to pet a ferret.

Amelia was excited to see Baby Daniel at the party.

She got a kiss from Daniel but was tired of me trying to pose her as usual.

Clown Car

Amelia & Bella are getting too big.

Happy Mothers Day

Here are some previous mother's day pics.

Who else could take Amelia from the baby ICU to this in less than one year.



Amelia (and her dad) are both very lucky. Happy Mothers Day Emma!

Tennis

Thanks Kim & Pat for the tennis equipment. She already has the tongue part down.

Gymnastique

Amelia went to her neighbor Gabby's birthday this weekend and had a great time on the zip line, rings, foam pit and other attractions. She kept running around telling everyone, "this is great exercise."

Water Play

Bella and Amelia enjoyed some great weather this weekend.

Glasses

Trying on Papa Larry's glasses.

Dragon Movie

She lives in a fantasy world.

Easter Bunny

Easter day Amelia went to the zoo with her PaPa AV, Janet, Jack, Libby, Blake, and Amy.
She thanked the EB for all the toys and candy. At last count she received 4 separate baskets.
Checking out the zoo with Jack.

Great Shots

Every once in a while I get some really great photos of her. Doesn't she look liker her mom?

Dora or Elmo?

Teaching her to count by lining up her favorites.

So Cold

Spring in Oklahoma

True Princess

She is serious about this whole princess thing. This get up usually goes on first thing in the morning and stays on all day.

Princess Video

Latest Collection

The artist and her most recent work in watercolor. Just like her Aunt, http://www.aleepeoples.com/

Spring Cleaning

(This one is from last spring - somehow it never got posted) Looking like a big girl crossing her legs and telling Rufus where to find his other ball because this one belongs to her. Spring is certainly here.

Looking a little bag lady chic.

Spring

In the spirit of Oklahoma's great weather recently and spring cleaning old unposted pics from the blog here is one from last summer that I never got around to posting.

Wink

Grandpa Jim taught her this a few months ago. She really has it down now.

Crazy Outfit

More fashion for you.

Fashion Week

Insolent Mice

Amelia loves the Nutcracker. We recently got her a Nutcracker video which she watches several times a day. She started repeating one special line that helps build her vocabulary. Quoting the Nutcracker "Insolent Mice." She also has nightmares that King Rat bites her on the arm, ouch!

Brownies Are Good

Too Dangerous

Amelia loves to be tickled. I was tickling her legs and it was just too much for her. You can make it out toward the end, she says "its too dangerous."

Watch

Amelia got a watch this Christmas in her dressup box. It doesn't work but when you are 2 the world pretty much works on your schedule so keeping perfect time really doesn't matter.

Hey, Where Did My Leggs Go

I found her crammed into this shoe box in the closet the other day.

Ballerina

Now that she is potty trained she will be taking ballet classes soon. She has already begun working on her moves.

Footie PJ's

Remember these? Amelia loves to lounge in hers and slide around on he floor.

Crazy Pose

Is she ready for America's Next Top Model or what?

Blogger

We have been busy over the last 2 years with this blog. If you didn't notice we just crossed the 13,000 mark for hits. Some of our friends have also started blogs including: http://alexanderbaird.blogspot.com/, http://archiefoll.blogspot.com/, http://doublestroller.blogspot.com/, LeAnn's Blog (sorry can't find the address) to name a few.

Welcome Back Kim & Pat

Kim & Pat just moved back to our neighborhood. They brought Amelia 2 princess dolls, Belle and Jasmine.

Teenager?

This is not a pose. How fitting that just a few days ago she went through the initial steps of potty training without much trouble at all.

Build A Bear

Amelia's Cousin (first once removed if my genealogy is correct) Ben gave her a Build-A-Bear for Christmas. She loves it.

Winter Princess

We are expecting an ice storm. Amelia is ready.

Bike Ride

Santa brought Amelia a new Dora Bike for Christmas. When we first saw the bike we thought it might be too large for her. However, as you can see she has no trouble riding it at all. Mom and Dad are the ones who have trouble keeping up with her.

telescope

We gave Amelia a small pair of binoculars. She calls it her telescope and wants to go outside every night and look at the moon.

Winter

Dad and Amelia by the fire.
