watering can

Posted on Tuesday, May 11th, 2010 at 7:31 pm

Charlotte got a little watering can, and she takes watering the plants very seriously.

She also likes to pull leaves and flowers off the new plants Brian got.

When we were in Colorado, my friend Katie taught Charlotte how to get dizzy, and now she cracks herself up spinning around.

fake burps and evil looks

Posted on Saturday, May 1st, 2010 at 9:01 pm

Charlotte likes burping and making fake burping noises, and she has recently started giving us this funny/scary evil look.

bike ride

We took Charlotte on her first bike ride today in her new seat.

We went to the Arboretum and saw lots of pretty flowers and trees in bloom.

And of course the snack break was the best part.

spring vacation

Posted on Friday, April 23rd, 2010 at 7:43 pm

We spent a fun week in Colorado last week visiting friends.

We took Charlotte on a little nature walk in Rocky Mountain National Park. Unfortunately I didn’t get a good shot of her picking up a piece of dried elk poop.

Then we refueled with ice cream afterwards.

We walked around on Pearl Street a lot.

Pajama time with Charlotte and Charlie, Erena and Shuka’s new baby. Charlotte liked poking at him and pulling on his ears, and trying to get into his bouncy seat.

She also liked playing in the spice cabinet. (Thanks to Kristin for taking this picture!)

The safety information card provided some very important entertainment on the flight home.

easter

Posted on Monday, April 5th, 2010 at 8:01 pm

The weather on Easter is usually not so great, but this year it was sunny and in the 70s. After all the rain and flooding of the past few weeks, the sun was very welcome.

We got to have an outdoor Easter egg hunt with Charlotte at my parents’ house. She was even more excited about it when she realized there was candy inside the eggs. She loves M&Ms, especially since we’ve been using them as bribes to get her to take her ear infection medicine this past week.

the fridge

Charlotte makes a beeline for the fridge whenever it’s open. (We probably should have destroyed the video evidence of how much energy she wasted playing like this.)

gardening

The pots full of dirt on our front porch, plus a plastic shovel, have provided hours of entertainment for Charlotte lately.
