The Mess Anya Made

So I was cleaning up the kitchen while Anya was still eating this morning and not really watching her, when I heard her say cheerily "Yogurt! Mess! Mess!". I turned around to discover the following:

Yogurt dripping from her bangs....

Covering the highchair, table and floor...
And Belle...

Report on Anya

Anya had her barium swallow test and they found no physical abnormalities - so they are sticking with the diagnosis of oral aversion (she's really, really, really picky, even more than a normal toddler).

They want us to see an occupational therapist to get her eating better, but we've just noticed in the last couple of days that she seems to be responding better to requests (and bribery). "Eat one more bite and then you can have more ketchup", "eat one more bite and then Mama will paint your toenails", etc. So we're thinking we may try it on our own for a little bit more here to see if she's finally old enough to reason with. Hah!

Willow's Pretty Ears

Willow got her ears pierced!

She did so good, just a few cries after each piercing, and then she cooed and giggled with the piercer afterwards.

Anya's First Tricycle Ride

Anya went with me out into the garage and spotted the new trike, and immediately started saying "bike! bike! bike!". So we took her out on it - her feet don't quite reach the pedals yet, but she seemed to really enjoy it!

She still needs to work on the steering issue...

Fourth of July


Our neighborhood holds a 4th of July parade and bbq each year, and Anya enjoyed watching the festivities in her patriotic dress.


The bouncy house was a little intimidating.
