May I speak to Pa Pa, please?

Julianna is now the proud owner of a Library card. We attempted story hour last week, but it did not work. They will restart in the fall and hopefully by then she will be able to sit in my lap and listen to a story being read. She does like picking books off the shelves and turning pages. And the toddler size tables are just too cool. She is getting better with the books. She let me read about four pages of one before she decided the pages were just turning too slowly and she had to speed up the process.

She is working really hard on her words. The new ones are cheese, diaper, bath, bike, truck. We are trying to do sign language with her as well, but it is slow because half the time we have to look the symbol up in the book before we can use it. I think we will have to start sooner with baby #2 and learn it before we have the little one. We had not planned to use it with Julianna, but she is acquiring spoken language slower than we had anticipated.

The tech whiz has just discovered the Nintendo. Wonder if they still make games for the Super Nintendo version?

Maybe she will have her own blog at Christmas.

This is totally a staged picture. She tossed the hat every time I put it on her head, so Grammy would get all focused and ready and I would drop the hat on for a quick photo before the toss.

Hat on. Hat off. Hat on. Hat off.
Starla and I are all to familiar with this.

At the age she is, it is very normal for her to not want to sit still for a book to be read to her. No need to worry about that.
