Alia: "Mommy, record me doing crazy stuff!"
Me: "What is crazy stuff?"
Alia: "Clapping and swimming."

So we see 6 or 7 geese walking down the sidewalk the other day on Rangeline. 

Becca: “Alia, look at the geese walking down the sidewalk.”

Alia: “Maybe they need some exercise.”

Little Mate's Cove for a birthday party

Spending time with Amy

Playing at the playground with Marcus

This past Saturday, we took Alia to the Safety Kids Discovery Days (or something like that) at the Women's and Children's hospital.  She played some games, enjoyed some sweet treats, and climbed in emergency vehicles. 

With the remote control fire dog. 

Alia was so excited to see TJ, then covered her face in the picture.  Silly girl!!

Looking inside the helicopter.

Happy to be in the cop SUV.

Driver's Seat of the Ambulance

We spent last Wed night through Sunday morning in Illinois with my family.  Alia got to be a flower girl for the first time at my mom's wedding.  Alia did a fairly good job.  Once up there, she dropped all of the petals out of her basket, then picked them up, then started to drop them again. 

All dressed up!

 

 

Flower Girl Alia

Alia and all her 1st cousins.

 

Alia has gone "running" with me twice.  The first time we went out to a trail and she complained, a lot.  

 

Resting on a bench and at the halfway point (no worries, we started at the 1.5)

 Tonight we went around our neighborhood and she was great!  Although she kept trying to run out in the middle of road.  Cars only had to stop twice.  :)

These were her "running" socks.
