Our daughter loves to eat fresh fruit and ripe berries. (Who doesn’t enjoy sweet, juicy berries?!)
Not only does she gobble them up in the blink of an eye, but she frequently wears them.
On her outfit. On her face. In her hair.
As she’s gotten older, you’d think she’d become a neater eater, but evidently not so much.
At least not when juicy berry are involved. Nom nom nom.
A trip down memory lane…
April 2008:
Tummy time at home (three months old!)
At the park with daddy
April 2009:
Packing up to move to the country
April 2010:
Children’s Museum in San Diego
Playing at the beach in San Diego
April 2011:
Coloring in her Clifford coloring book (thrift store score!)
Crazy flyaway hair
Playing her guitar as if it’s a cello with her violin bow
There’s never a dull moment in our house.
Want to play outside but your neighbor is using his noisy weed wacker?
There’s no need to fret.
Just break out your kid-sized noise reduction headphones
They’re perfect for playing with the band at concerts and scooping dirt in the yard.

That $10 IKEA tent has been loved.
And, yes, we’ve been gardening! More on that soon. Stay tuned.
In the past two months we’ve visited both the American Museum of Natural History in New York and the California Academy of Sciences here in the Bay Area. Both experiences were formative for our three year old and she frequently talks the magical things we saw there (dinosaur bones! penguins! (stuffed) lions! fish!).
Yesterday she announced that she needed a map for her upcoming (pretend) museum trip and so we immediately set about making one.
I was there for spelling help and letter forming support.
She picked the animals, designed the museum layout, and drew it herself (except for one word that I wrote, but I bet you spotted that one already!).
In our daughter’s world dinosaurs are alive and well, my friends. After reading the classic I Can Read Book, Danny and the Dinosaur
After all, as I am frequently reminded, you can do anything in your imagination.
