Amelia didn’t take ONE bite of her birthday cupcakes, though she did love the purple. She also hasn’t eaten any of Grandma’s cookies this week- we can’t figure this one out.

Daphne, on the other hand, enjoyed enough cupcake for both of them.

Thank you all for the birthday fun! Amelia has spent a chunk of time writing her thank you notes, coming soon to your mailboxes. She got a butterfly pillow that has a pocket with a pad of paper and a pen, and she has probably written half a pad’s worth of notes so far.
She is doing great with her twin bed. I peek before I go to bed and she’s never about to fall out.
She told me today that her favorite letter is “A” and her favorite number is “3″.

We had some fun blowing bubbles on Sunday evening.

Amelia learned how to catch a bubble on the wand!

October 10th. It was 94 degrees today (they just said it was record heat on the news preview on tv) so we filled up the pool for one last time. Amelia was too cold so Grandma kept her warm. Daphne enjoyed it but didn’t really want her hair washed with cold water.

Amelia had her 3 year check up today. She didn’t even blink when she got her flu shot and the two nurses were exclaiming about how she should be the poster child for getting shots. She did some jumping jacks for the doctor, too. 39 1/2 inches tall and 36 pounds of beautiful, smart, funny, brave girl.

Grandma is going home tomorrow and we will miss her. Ethan’s away this week for work, back Friday, and we miss him. Lots of missing going on here. We will survive.
