More Amelia

We had a chance to visit with Amelia for a couple of days again this week. Really, we were meant to help with a special project, but who could blame us for enjoying some time with the youngest grandchild!

She loves playing on her special play mat, although I don't know if the bird in the middle of it will survive her ministrations!





Even though she can sit up by herself now, when she helps her mother with the cooking, she prefers to sit in her Bumbo seat. She is full of smiles, giggles and squeals these days.



She loves to go shopping and has recently discovered the joy of riding around the store sitting up in the cart. Yesterday she kept trying to get to her dad's glass of water. It looked so grown up, shiny and enticing to her.



Later we found a little sippy cup and watched her figure out how to make it work.

Of course, in between playing with this little distraction, we also accomplished quite a few projects....shopping, pruning, mudding, cooking, etc.
