Eating - 4 skill points

Lindita has leveled up at eating solids. She now opens her mouth and lunges for the spoon. She likes applesauce, avocado, and mashed potatoes. She makes weird faces when we feed her bananas.

Evelyn, when she is hungry, announces, "I'm startle-in'."

Hello world

I can now post on the blog from my mobile phone.

edit: well, maybe not. Attempts to send a photo failed. grr.

Yum, roly poly tomatoes

Threeness

This morning Evelyn looked at the edge of our bedroom door. She turned one doorknob and watched the other one turn, then vice versa. "This door has great twisters!" I told her that they're called doorknobs, and that the door has two doorknobs. She looked at her bedroom door. "My door only has one." Then she ran over to look at her door from the edge: "One, two! My door has two doorknobs." This was a major discovery.

Later, I stood at the top of the stairs and called to her. She came to the bottom of the stairs and I tossed her preferred dress down to her. She almost caught it. "Let's try that again!" She tried to fling the dress up the stairs, then carried it up the stairs.

Then she noticed some dust particles in the sunlight. She spent several minutes catching them. "Look! I caught one!" (opens hands) "Where did it go?" She caught a white dust particle, then a pink one, then several other colors.

She's thrilled to go to school this morning. It's a beautiful day, and she has a new headband. Today is school picture day -- should be interesting.

She didn't die

On Saturday, Evelyn went with Daddy to swimming lessons, then the library, then out to lunch at Lion's Choice. She ate her whole ham sandwich. She read several books. And at swimming: "I drowned, but I didn't die. I splooshed right back out!"

Lindita has a tummyache. We are all very sad and tired. Evelyn dances for Linda; the baby stops crying and laughs at her sister.

How the wind works

A few days ago, it was windy and chilly. Evelyn said that the birds need to stop shaking the branches because it's making too much wind.

Bathtime Giggles

Lindita thinks Evelyn is hilarious. They play in the bath. Evelyn splashes her sister, but Linda blinks and then laughs again.

This video posting doesn't seem to be working. I'll go upload it to Facebook too.

Evelyn loves her bunny towel. She wears it every day. She hops around the house with her floppy bunny ears.

Finally, a sitting photo

Easter friends

Here's Evelyn and Sydney at Purina Farms. They bravely held hands when cold or when intimidated by the giant Easter Bunny.
