Backlog -- catch up from Post-New Year's visit.

I'm a little behind on posting. I have some photos from my visit with my sister and her family. And one little story.

We had a fun time -- and I got to spend a lot of one on one with my niece. We watched Peter Pan, we made gluten-free chocolate chip cookies (poor kid), we laughed, we cried. She's a pretty neat kid. Wicked smart. Her little brother poos a lot and wobbles around grabbing things. He knows a few things though: like if you ask him What does a doggie say?
He'll say: woof!
What does a Monkey say?
Ooo-oooo-ooo
What does a cow say?
Mooooooooo
What does a kitty say?
Meow!

Hey Dylan! Look!















COW!

Yeah. I guess when you teach a kid what the animals say, you need to use pictures (I admit that once he started calling my cat a cow, I kind of encouraged him a little).


He was more excited about the cat than he was about his Aunt, I tell you what.

Devyn's learning yoga in her gym class -- how cool is that? If you say "down dog" - both kids will go into the pose (sort of). I might not have the coolest kid-house ever, but there are some popular things around here that made it seem like I'm not the worst in the aunt department.


We got to go to Davis and visit the Farmer's Market --we had some hot chocolate, we bought some grapes, we tasted oranges, and , Devyn got to ride the merry go round (or is that a Carousel?).

It's the sort of visit that makes me sad to live away from home where the kids are just growing up so fast. But then they left and I was kind of glad that my house was all back to normal and didn't smell like baby poo and cigarette smoke.

Ahh. . . family.
