Gardening

Matilda likes to garden. Here she is watering some onions. She just needs to watch out for the snake.

No pictures please

Monkey

Now that Mati is bigger and heavier, it's easier for us to carry her on our back. She also seems to enjoy it.

Last week

When not feeling well....

This week, we are all feeling better.

Soup

Matilda soup.

Kitchen renovation

Matilda is busy rearranging the kitchen. This project takes Mati several days to move things around and take everything out. We are still finding utensils and pots around our home. Needless to say, Matt has installed more latches.

Around the world

Matilda, Matt, and I saw the sailboats sail out of the bay on their way down to Panama and continue on their race around the world.

Chocolate milk

At a friend's birthday party last week, Matilda enjoyed her first chocolate milk.

Shoes

Mati has some big shoes to fill.

Of course, she still loves hats and puts them on herself.

Code

Matilda is learning to write solid code, like her Dad.

Makes for a good bedtime story.

All better

I, too, was a bit under the weather this week due to a small procedure involving a vacuum and a hospital gown. What an amazing combination!

Like Matilda, I am feeling much better.

Slightly sick

Although not feeling well this week, Matilda still shares a smile. The smile may actually be for the Wonder Pets.

All clean

Matilda is squeaky clean following her bath. Notice the water has already drained from the "tub." She demonstrates her cleanliness by smelling her foot and giving a big and mischievous smile.

Holding hands

I like when Matilda grabs my hand. It's often when she wants to show me something, though sometimes, it's just because.

Slippers

Besides hats, Mati likes slippers. Although she has grown out of her Winnie the Pooh slippers, Mati likes to help Daddy with his slippers.

Hat!

Matilda gets very excited when she does get her hat on the right way. You can even see in the pic that she is saying, "hat!"

Hats on

Just like bunny ears (see below), hats can be a challenge.

Careful

Matilda catches her balance on the curb.

Bunny ears

Matilda tries to put on her bunny ears.

Sprout

Matilda plays with Aunt Tiff and Uncle Shaun at Sprout.

20 months old

Matilda and I on Easter, also her 20th (month) birthday. We saw the Easter Bunny and played with eggs at a friend's place. Mati was a bit under the weather that day.

Hop, hop

Actually swing, swing. Matilda was swinging back and forth while I held her in the Ergo. She was playing peek-a-boo with Daddy, Auntie Tiff, and Uncle Shaun.

Egg hunt

Matilda's first egg hunt sans basket. It was actually a Spring Festival. Nonetheless, Mati liked carrying around her hard-boiled egg, saying "Hi!" to the baby animals, and spending time with Dad at work.

Sailing, sailing

Matt returns from sailing around the Bay.

While Matt was rolling up the sail, Matilda walked around the dock with her bear.
