A few random pictures

It seems Amelia didn't think crawling alone was as cool as it was cracked up to be and neither was crawling and standing (because she would get stuck standing up). But now that she can crawl, stand AND get back down, she is quite happy to go from window, to laundry basket, to dog, to chair, to stove, to couch - standing, banging, sitting, licking, standing, sitting, crying, crawling, standing, sitting, etc. She is so busy.

She loves looking out the back window and screams and bangs to her heart's content. When she gets bored she moves on to the oven.
She likes being here banging away while I am making dinner. She especially likes it if I give her a wooden spoon or a spatula to bang as well.

Enjoying a rare moment of sunny weather and doing a little local hike. Gotta love the hot pink sweat suit.

Here we are celebrating after finding out the Ducks made it to Regionals. This picture was taken by one of the reporters. I love the way professional pictures look - even when they are just snapshots like this one. The colors, lighting and quality are so different from what you get with a point and shoot camera. Maybe someday I'll invest in one and learn how to use it!
