It was rainy - Lucy and you

 On the swing -

 With Ms. Linda -

Mother's Day Edition: Same dress, different girl

Dress while strawberry picking. You were a mess afterwards- with evidence of eating strawberries all over your face and dress. You did say - " I want more strawberries." this weekend which was super cute.

Spring Pics

You are not super smiley and we had to merge photos to get a good group pic. You also dirtied up your dress and picked up a huge thing of a moss in the middle of shoot that Ms. Lisa captured.

Frown and all- you're still pretty cute.

Daddy-Daughter Date

You and Daddy headed to Lockeland Table for a date while I took the big kids to a show. You loved your chicken, applesauce, and ice cream.

Daddy's been teaching what to say in response to -
"June- how old are you?" And you say "Two!"

We also love the way you say "Come on, Daddy/Mae-ma/Car-car/Mommy!" It's more like "Um Own!"

Pretty cute. :)

Rainy & Cold Day at the Adventure Science Center

On the move -

June is almost 2

Lots of pictures from school-

You are talking more and still seem a little aggressive. Your most recent incident report was just walking up to a kid and biting them, unprovoked. You also hate it when you don't get what you want...like food. You want snacks and we are telling you to eat what's on your plate. Depending on the night, you hate the bath, but sometimes you'll spend 20 minutes in it.

I love the tantrums and stomping of the feet. I also love "no night night" when it seems you are not ready to go to bed. You are talking lots more, but rarely say something when we ask you to say it! Some other favorite phrases that we actually love-

I wanna watch (when you want to watch a show)
I wanna a snack
My seat
No seat with Mommy
I wanna seat with Daddy
I wanna apple (when you want an orange)
Let's go Maemy, Car Car
Come on Maemy, Car Car
Brush teeth
I need help
I'm all done.

Lately you've been saying your name, but don't say the J.

Love you - une. :)

We headed to Washington, D.C. for a long weekend for spring break. We took you this year and you were great. Well the airplane ride on the way back wasn't great, but otherwise you were just fine! We even saw someone at the Kite Festival with your jacket on...it's 8 years old!

Some stories from the weekend:
- You took naps on me on the plane, at the Portrait Gallery, on me on Sunday, and the Nats Team Store.
- You were very possessive over the stroller and who was pushing you. You did not like it if it was one of your siblings!
- We always buckled you when we getting on/off the metro...for fear that you would try to escape.
- You did great sleeping in the room with the rest of the family. We were in a studio!
- You were a pretty great traveler and we loved the not full flights and the free seat. :)

Hope you had a fun spring break!

Love,

Mommy
