Scooching

Amelia has been on the move lately. She is getting lots older in many ways. When we put her down on the ground she likes to move. The below picture wouldn't look all that strange, but about 1 min prior I left her facing the books on the blanket and when I turned back around she was the other way near the chair. Places to go...

She has also been gettig better about napping. It takes her a while to get to sleep since she doesn't want to miss anything, but once asleep, she sleeps for one 3 hour nap a day. She still has 2 other cat naps. 

Skulls

Stanley really enjoys the academy of science museum skulls exhibit. Today we went and Stanley sat right down at the drawing table to draw a skull. He choose the grizzly bear skull to draw. I was pretty impressed at the drawing. A few photos to follow.

Be prepared

Stanley likes to sleep with a toy each night. I thought this was an odd choice, but as Papa Doug mentioned, he is just being prepared.

Here is Amelia enjoying the SF summer in November. Don't worry, again, she is prepared for the evening fog with her cozy bunting.

Voting.

Today we voted together. Stanley had a ballot this morning, where he needed to vote for his breakfast fruit and how he wanted to get to school. He chose all three choices for both questions. He was given the strawberries, blackberries, and banana. For the other question, I had to make an executive choice; it would have been hard to have him ride the stroller, ride his bike and walk all at the same time. 

Here are some photos. 

After voting. 

My two kids

Here are a few pictures from the last few days of the two kids.

While Yoyo (previously known as Lolo, but stanley has renamed her) was here, Stanley and mommy had an adventure by ourselves to See's Candy. Stanley got a hat and a candy. While coming home, we had about 15 people comment on the hat he was given while he carefully held is chocolate candy unopened.

My little doll Amelia.

Yesterday, Amelia had her first stroller ride without the bassinet. She far prefers the bassinet, but she was happy to look around and enjoyed her ride to get Stanley from school.
