Classic Toy

Every child needs a classic popper toy. Of course there is a version now with lights and music but we opted for the old standard. Keep training Amelia - you will be mowing the yard by next year.

Dog Walking

Amelia loves to walk Rufus around her block and she is pretty good at it. Except when she drops the leash to examine anything and everything found on the ground. Rufus loves the attention and is just happy to have his picture back online somewhere. His blog has been defunct since Amelia's birth.

Lookin' Sharp

Amelia sports some big girl running shoes that she got this weekend. They go great with her "Yo Heart Tennis" shirt that Aunt Alee brought back from Ecuador. And how can you go wrong with that hat.

Another Beautiful Dress

Thanks Auntie Lo for this beautiful dress. I am finally big enough to wear it.

Cute Dress

Amelia sports a dynamite dress given to her by Auntie Steph. I think she looks very much the Peoples in this picture.

Rock Lady

She is fascinated with rocks, sand, pebbles and similar groundcovering. She must stop and immediately inspect it and collect a handful.


Then she throws handfuls of the material into the air, usually showering herself with it. When she does this in the sandbox her hair gets so caked over we call her Sandy Peoples.

Toes

What a surprise to take off Amelia's shoes after a visit with her Granny TaTa and find her toes painted. Hopefully she will hold off on the ear piercing for a while.

Quartz Mountain

The family went to Quartz Moutain for the Law School retreat this weekend. Amelia had a great time romping around the grounds. I got this shot while playing peek-a-boo.

Regular blog visitors must have noticed the dearth of posts lately. Things have been busy. But I've just uploaded some great pics so this will be a more interesting week on AmeliaRose's blog. Stay tuned.


This shows the interior of the lodge compound.

Church Clothes

Amelia went to church with her Grandma this weekend.

First Cell Phone

Now if she could just speak in a language that someone other than Mom & Dad could understand.

Another Hat

"Dad, hurry up and take your picture and get these underwear off my head!"

Relaxing

Amelia now has her own personalized hot pink bean bag. What a great place to watch Noggin and Baby Einstein DVDs.

Hat

Keeping her safe from the wi-fi in our house.

I Can Make Noise

She has a blast with these.

St. Francis

Amelia says: "Hi, you're just my size. Watch after Rufus, Fred and all the other creatures in my yard."

Rocking Chair

Amelia got this great rocking chair from her Great Grandmother. She loves to sit and rock. What a big girl.

6 And Counting

As promised I finally snagged a pic of the snaggle teeth. Yes her mom is English and her dad needed braces. Now accepting donations for the orthodontics fund.

Pinwheel

All she wants to do is play outside.

I think we have a tom girl on our hands.

More Teeth

She always brushes her teeth before heading to the pool. Two more teeth are on the way. These middle top two will give her opposable teeth for the first time. Now she can really do some damage when biting. Keep hands and feet away from her mouth at all times.

Dog Days

Amelia and Rufus try to stay cool in the backyard. She really enjoys finding him sticks to chew on.
