Why yes Amelia is wearing kiddie Jackie O sunglasses with her tennis outfit. She wears the sunglasses in the house, and then tries to put them on top of her head like Matt and I do.
We've had a map on the wall for awhile to show Amelia where the rest of the family lives. I got her puzzle of the states and she was able to quickly pull out Florida and California and put them in the right place. In the last week, she's added New York, the combo Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Massachusetts piece, Texas, Maine, Michigan and Virginia. She also has a special affection for Idaho, so either she wants to learn to ski or needs more potatoes in her diet. We're headed to Michigan in a few weeks for a family wedding and if you ask Amelia where she's going, she'll pull out the piece and yell "Michigan!"
We've tried to teach her things about each state, beyond a city or who lives there. Example - Kentucky, that's where they have a lot of horses. Matt did not find my description of Arkansas appropriate. What can I say? It IS full of razorbacks and people who have slept with Bill Clinton.
