Today, our little gal got to “visit” the toddler room downstairs. Now that she’s walking, the daycare folk are looking to transition her to the downstairs where’s there’s more to play with and more space to wander around! She’s also now the oldest baby in the infant room! My, how time flies and how quickly things change!!
So, Cameron apparently really enjoyed being down there! She spent the entire morning in the toddler room, including her morning snack and lunch time, and she cried when she was sent back upstairs! She also napped for a mere 35 minutes. Wow.
After getting home, we fed her a nice dinner of butternut squash and chard risotto, mango with sticky rice, and some coconut water, and then I took her out for a run; we knew she’d sack out in the middle of it!
But, to backtrack a little on our week so far…on Sunday, we celebrated Amirah’s 4th birthday party up in Boulder Creek. It was another pizza party with Tarik manning their homemade outdoor pizza oven and tossing pizza crusts up in the air, and absolutely amazing princess cupcakes made by Amirah’s mom Kristin!
This picture of Cameron and Tom is one of my favorite shots from that day!
Both kids had a pretty good time. You can tell that Cameron loves bigger kids…and she’s remarkably good at “sharing.” She kindly gave the bucket she was playing with to this little girl, hoping (I’m sure) that the girl would play nicely with her. Sadly, the girl just grabbed all the toys away and went off to play by herself with poor Cameron trying to follow her around and engage her in some play (and the little gal — in her age-appropriate way — just kept on taking things away and taking off!)! Cameron is such a forgiving girl!!
Now, here’s Dylan and Tom rolling out Dylan’s pizza dough. Yep, he made his very own pizza. He chose roasted red bell pepper and kalamata olives for his topping…no sauce!
And, at this time last year, Dylan still had such a baby face. He is growing up quickly, too….
