Julia's first pigtails! She doesn't like me to mess with her hair much, but she was pretty amused when she saw herself in the mirror. She has the perfect hair for pigtails because you can twist the pigtail one time and this perfect little ringlet curl stays in place.

This was the first time she realized that she could actually get out of her bed at nap time and find things to play with in her room. We are amazed that she has just now figured it out since she has been in her bed since December! We walked in after nap and found her piggy bank by her head.
Then, under the covers.....all this money. We both thought she was talking more than normal when we left her to go to sleep. No wonder.
Funny things that Julia said this week:
"What would you like for supper tonight Julia?" Her reply, "squid!"
Her stomach was growling and she said, "My tummy's burping!"
"I hear the train Mommy. The train is by the library, actually."
"I'm getting busy!" What she says instead of dizzy.
She has started singing songs that she knows and putting in her own funny words. For example, one of her favorite songs right now is Twist and Shout. So at dinner time, she started singing, "Twist and chips. Come on, come on, come on chip now. Come on and dip a little closer now. And let me know that you mine."
This girl keeps us rolling. You never know what she is going to say.
She goes way out of her way to wade through a mud puddle.
We took her to Village Creek thinking that she would want to hang out at the playground and play. Fortunately, we came prepared with her swimsuit because once she saw this muddy lake, it was all over.
Floating...
Whats a trip to the lake without a Popsicle?
