Dogs, Bugs and Water

These are Amelia's favorite things: dogs, bugs and water. Whenever we go to the playground she only wants to find dogs, bugs, birds, puddles, rocks, and drinking fountains. Who cares about the play structure?! So whenever we go on a walk, we are constantly on the lookout for these things.

Amelia ran away from us after church to go find bugs

She wasn't happy when we made her leave church (go figure :)

When it's raining outside and we stay indoors most of the day, Amelia will take up to 3 baths. She loves to play with the running water and gets mad when I turn the faucet off. She tries to throw a fit in the tub, but soon realizes it doesn't work too well to lay down and roll around in the tub. The girl LOVES water!


Amelia's favorite movies are Lady and the Tramp and The Little Mermaid. Her favorite TV shows are SuperWhy and Barney. The other morning the first word out of her mouth was "Barney" and when I said it wasn't on TV yet, she burst out crying. She quickly snapped out of it when I said she could watch "Mermaid." Now "Mermaid" is the first thing she says in the morning (actually 2nd - the first thing is "baba. want it. yeah? K.")

She is so precious! She is SO cute and petite. Good for her for not wanting to leave church ;)

Your mornings sound surprisingly like ours. Caroline wakes up at, oh, I would guess 5am. She waits patiently until sometime during the 6 o'clock hour to come down, then immediately demands a show (Dora, Toy Story, whatever). We always tell her, not until 7, but we usually end up giving in so she'll leave us alone. Fun stuff!

About Me

Angie moved to Palo Alto, CA in 2001 to get her Masters degree in Chemistry at Stanford. Matt got his MBA at BYU and started a job at The GAP in San Fransisco in 2002. We met in the Stanford singles ward and were married in the SLC Temple in 2003. Our little Amelia was born prematurely in August 2006 weighing 1lb 15oz. She is still small for her age, but perfectly healthy. Baby Chase was born 7 weeks early in September, but is now home and growing like a...baby. Matt took a job at Nike in Portland, OR in April 2008 so here we are.
