Giada continues to act less and less like a baby and more like a toddler every day.  Her word for today was “bubbles”, thanks to my sister Marissa who brought some over when the twins were here.  I pick her up at “school” on Tuesday and Wednesday at twelve-thirty and keep her until six.  On Tuesdays I take her to Kindermusik at five and then take her home.  Amy picks her up on Wednesdays.  The zoo has a great little class on Wednesdays, and we have been going once a month.  It costs fifteen dollars but it covers a couple of hours with zoo personnel, free parking and the zoo admission.  Michael took her last week and really enjoyed it.  They previewed a bird show that the zoo will be presenting this summer.  They have a parrot that can sing “Old MacDonald”.

Milk Dilemma!

I hope you can see this video. Giada has had a runny nose for awhile – which requires lots of extra attention. She wants to drink Milk on Mommy’s lap but that would require putting the milk bottle down!

We listen to Music for Aardvarks on the way to school. Giada is very serious about her music. She listens intently and inserts appropriate hand movements only when necessary.

Giada on the run! Who knew she could move so fast. She loved the wide open aisles of Target even more than the toys on the shelves.

My first lunch at Target! Ok, so it’s not the Zodiac Room at Nieman’s but everyone has to start somewhere!

Giada thinks she is big time sitting at the table with her cousins Evie and Jane. This was at tarhet after *trying* to take pictures with her cousins.

I just don’t know if it can be as bad as they all say. We have Nick Jr. (no comercials) on alot at the house. Giada likes the songs and the music but doesn’t watch much Diego or Dora. I like these little guys.

My sister is the best! She has saved all of her twins best clothes and therefore Giada has something to wear besides diapers! I LOVE this outfit. So cute! I think she looks so much like my Cousin Andi Nadicksbernd in the one where she is standing still.

I LOVE this picture of Giada, She is on the run on the grassy field at the arboretum. We went with Stacy Sawyer and her kids and Giada wanted to do what the big kids were doing. She loves to run and was so happy.

We had such a good night! Max, Jennifer and Andy came over and we hung out. Max and Giada went to town on the Dum Dums.
