A "Dragon Footprint"

These pictures were actually taken two weeks ago on Tuesday, January 17 as I was helping Addy practice riding her bike. The pedaling motion is really tricky to master, so, when she's ready for a break, we play tag, usually with me being "it".

As we were running around, Addy came upon -gasp- a "dragon footprint". See if you can spot it! She is very into the movie "How to Train Your Dragon" right now and even has her own imaginary pet dragon named "Boris". Maybe he left it behind.

I just love how vibrant her little imagination is.

Mm-wah!

Story Time

One of our favorite weekly outings is attending story time at the wonderful Smith Library, which is about two blocks from our home. Ms. Bernadette, the story time librarian, is so great with the kids. Each week, she has a theme around which the stories/songs/activities are centered, as well as a craft. Yesterday the theme was trains - Addy was SO excited! (She's quite the train enthusiast as we've recently been on an outing to ride Trax.)

She was even MORE excited to see her friend Jay from church! They had such a great time together, especially when it came time for watercolor painting. Since there weren't enough chairs for all of the children, Jay was kind enough to share his chair with Addy. Once a chair did become available, however, Addy preferred to continuing sharing Jay's chair. ;o]

They were so darling and fun to watch, especially when they walked out of the craft room holding hands.

Mm-wah!
