Elmo, Elmo, Elmo...and Cookie.
Aria LOVED all the characters, immediately, hugs for Abby, Zoe and Grover in the main play area. We did the lunch with Elmo (Big Bird, Cookie, Burt and Ernie) When Elmo came on stage she let out hysterical screams/laughs/sobs that had other families and staff around us laughing... Then she rushed the stage, I kid you not. It was the most amazing thing to see my shy little monkey go crazy ! The last 10 min she danced up on stage with the characters and the other kids. Priceless.
At the Elmo Breakfast, Busch Gardens..
The opening act!
Naptime, but seeing Elmo instead!
Holding Aria back. She tried to rush the stage!
Meeting Elmo for the first time...

Memorial Weekend 2009
We are enjoying visitors (Bob, Laura, Justin and Jake) the pool, the beach, the Children's Museum...busy weekend!! Great weather! Aria has really taken to the water: both the ocean and the pool. She has started to go underwater at the pool all the time. Loves it. So fun.
We started 1-2-3 Magic this week. It is working really well. We are having such a great time. Can't wait for summer...

Hard to believe Aria will be 2 years old in less than a month!!
We have been taking swimming lessons...we finally joined the Y. Aria LOVES the water! She jumps in off the side (holding my hands) goes underwater, and just started blowing bubbles. The instructor says she is one of the two best kids in a pretty good sized class. We try to go every day if the weather is nice. We have a frog slide that goes into the water and she will continue sliding down forever if we let her!
This past weekend we went to the Chesapeake Jubilee. She's not a fan of the carousel or some of the fast or noisy rides but loved riding on the train and flying on the helicopter ride with her daddy.
We are looking forward to friends and family coming in the next few weeks. Summer is almost here and I can't wait!

Spring is finally here!
So much has changed! Aria's communication continues to astound me. She makes 4-5 word sentances, says "Oh Goodness" and "Oopsy Daisy", has continual demands "Mama change diaper", "Eat pretzel fish"...it is so amazing to be able to understand her. Her favorite thing is lovey, favorite person (other than mom and dad) seems to be Susan (and David), her favorite activity: swimming in the heated outdoor Y pool (open since mid-April) and "walking outside" or "backyard". She is wearing 3 and 4T clothes so we are finally having to buy a few things for her. We got over strep a few weeks ago and croup last week, other than those we've had a relatively healthy year.
Pics coming soon!

Our beautiful pear tree in full bloom!
