What we like

I've been thinking it'd be fun to record a list of things Amelia especially likes these days. And I thought I'd throw in a short list of my own, too.

Amelia likes:

-Lalaloopsy girls (the small ones). She has five and plays with them every night after we tuck her in. She tucks them in their little bed she made out of a Barbie-sized bookshelf. They are cute but unfortunately came with tiny pieces that are impossible to keep up with. We spend a good 30 minutes a day trying to locate a tiny striped zebra or something similar.

-Caillou. She watches every day while she eats breakfast.

-Her current favorite foods:
lemonade (a long time favorite. I mix about an ounce of lemonade with 6-7 ounces of water.)
lemon yogurt
lemons in general (the other day she carried around a bowlfull of lemon slices, licking them occasionally)
rice (her all time favorite food)
cucumbers
red peppers cut into long strips
carrots
ham and turkey, deli-sliced
peanut butter out of the jar

-Current favorite books:
Corduroy, except she doesn't want Lisa to take Corduroy home at the end
The Gruffalo
The Mitten

-Singing--she likes to make up her own songs and singing Music Class songs

-Doing things by herself--and she recently learned to zip her own coat! She is working on buttons and writing the letters of her name. She also loves to "help" me make breakfast every day and is learning both to crack eggs and to retrieve tiny pieces of eggshell from a bowl of cracked eggs.

I like:
hazlenut half and half
yogadownload.com
huluplus
chocolate almond butter
the scents lavendar, vanilla, and orange
the feeling after a morning spent writing
