Amelia Takes On the World

Amelia didn’t nap on Sunday. I put her down for one, maybe a few minutes early because I needed a break. I thought sure, she’ll talk for 10 – 15 minutes but then she’ll take a nap. She always does, for at least 1 1/2 hours, if not 2 1/2 – 3 hours. Um yeah – haha. Silly me! She napped for approximately 0 minutes and instead talked and played in her crib for over an hour and a half. Needless to say I didn’t have high expectations of her mood when we went over to a friend’s house for dinner on Sunday. I have to admit though, she surprised me and she and her friend Carson had a fantastic time together. Carson is just over a year older than Amelia, and I think Amelia really does well following older kids around. (Carson is also a full head taller than Amelia which you will see in the photos). Enjoy the photos!

The hug started as unprompted, but we made them continue hugging so we could take photos.

Just cute girls, having a blast.

Amelia was having fun chasing Carson around – while carrying a hula hoop.  Because duh, of course you carry one while chasing someone older and faster than you.

Carson’s dad Shane had fun swinging the girls around.  Once Amelia saw Carson do it, of course she had to do it too.  And they both had to do it again and again and again…

Carson showing off her mad jumping skillz.  Amelia tried to jump but well, she just doesn’t get off the ground.

And finally just a couple fun pics from our back porch before we headed to the Joneses.  I am taking a photography class in June and am having fun playing and learning as much as I can even before then.

I hope everyone had a good weekend!  Next weekend I think we are tackling the zoo!
