The creative juices have been flowing lately. When it gets hot outside, we find things to do inside.
Last week, Alia went painting at The Mudd Room for the first time. Here is her kitty.

We've made some puppets at home this week. I think Chrissy at daycare made the one on the left. Alia made the one on the right (I drew the tree). There's also one of the table behind her that she colored.

Today, Alia made some jewelry with a friend from church.

We went swimming for the first time this summer on Tuesday.

She's actually saying cheese and trying to smile, but I'm sure I'll see this look in another 12 years.

She went back and forth through this tunnel for like 5 minutes.

Playing with the water gun.

Alia went for a walk with me yesterday. After our walk, she played in the Spray Park.
