2 car family


Philip finally got a car!!! (this is not ours but a look a like) A 2008 Prius in "silver pine"(light green). It is so fun and nice to have a NEW car (only 6 miles on it) and now 2 cars. Amelia seems to think it is a toy because every time we go out to it she calls it a bike. It makes us laugh, but it took Phil a few times to not be hurt by her cut on his choice of transportation. Makes me itchy for road trips.

"do it"


Amelia is really gaining her independence. She wants to do everything herself and tells you "do it" if you try to help her with anything. She's getting pretty good at feeding herself, somewhat dressing herself, putting shoes on and lots of other things. She's saying so many fun things and is starting to become more conversational and expresses her opinions and feelings.

Hiking in Zion


We were able to get away a few weekends ago and spend some time with family in Southern Utah. We spent one day hiking in Zion. Amelia loves getting a ride but really wants to do it herself. (like everything)
