Along Came Amaya Isabel

Sunday, June 20, 2010

Amaya took a three hour nap after her birthday bash. Her daddy did too.

Amaya's birthday went off without a hitch! Our little girl had a blast and played the entire time, then went home and napped for three hours. We are so blessed and thank everyone who spend the afternoon with us!

2 years old.

She grins, talks, throws minor tantrums, shrugs her shoulders, runs fast, hugs her dogs. Hugs my arm. Follows her older cousins around.

Vocab has exploded. Says sentences. "Where's daddy and Where'd daddy go?" are her favorites. Also asks to go to "Grampie's house" on a regular basis. Loves fruit. Won't eat eggs or PBJ.

It's the little things that I'm noticing that make her such a big girl. The way she walks up the stairs rather than crawling. Her need to feed herself an entire meal with a spoon. Her singing, oh my goodness, her singing the cutest thing ever. She sings songs to herself, to her shadow, to the dogs, to her baby dolls.

Since today was her birthday we ate a great breakfast and then went to Emma Prusch farm so she could see the animals. We headed to the pool and tried out her new swim toys since it was ridiculously hot. Then we had family over for a light dinner and dessert and sang happy birthday to her. True to form, she sang along :)

First Swim Day of Summer!

The weather was brutally hot so we decided to hit the pool. I like to lounge and read books but bebe and Daddy jump right in and splash around!

A Day at the Aquarium.

A few days ago we had the opportunity to go with Jen and Ruby to the Dennis the Menace park and Monterey Bay Aquarium. Here are some shots taken with my camera phone. This was the first real time Amaya wasn't in her stroller and had the opportunity to roam around and decide what she wanted to look at. We had so much fun!
