Hey there! I like to party like rockstar!
I love being the center of attention. Also, flying.
Amelia with her uncle and aunts. (From left to right: Hugh, Anne, Mrs. Bunny Thompson, Amanda.) You can see why the Facebook facial recognition software had some issues with my family.
The new extended family. Pete's parents are on the right. When our family grows much more I don't think we'll all fit in one photo. Currently: Dad and Mary, 6 siblings, 4 spouses/might as well be married, and 1 grandchild = really hard to get in the same place, let alone the same photo.
Kent gave Amelia a panda hat in honor of one of the Giants players. She liked it, but only for short periods of time.
Now a few from the wedding itself. Anne, me and the bride.
And one cute one of Bunny and Dad. My dad looks so much like his father that I kept doing a double take. All he's missing are the glasses. At least Will and Hugh know what they will look like when they get older.
As for us, we are doing pretty well and almost completely unpacked. The big thing left is our 12 boxes of books. We're figuring out where we want to put the bookcases we need. Amelia and I bought some flowers for the front flower boxes yesterday. She selected yellow, but I think that's because it's her current default color. I tried to get her to help with the watering, but that did not go well. She had just had some ice cream, so at least she was cleaned up from that.
Matt's still enjoying his new job and the lack of travel. Which is good because I have been one the road almost once a week recently. I've actually been to San Francisco twice since the wedding, and I have another two trips there in the next six weeks.
Amelia LOVES her daycare. Sometimes the only way to get her to go to sleep is to tell her that she will get to see her teachers (and Hunter or Cole depending on her mood) the next day. This morning she made a beeline for Cole when we walked in. Matt and I have babyproofed her door so she can't get out, but we're looking for ways to keep her locked in there till she's 30. She's becoming more verbal by the day. Now she can usually tell us what she wants, or at least get close enough. She's also very good with naming body parts. Ear, hair and eye are the favorites, but she also enjoys pulling up her shirt to show off her belly. She's going to be trouble when she gets older and has more words and moves. She's going to give at least one of us a heart attack, and both of us high blood pressure.
