Our Gnome Home

We built a gnome house at Antioch Park and I think there's already a gnome living there because when Lo and Addie went for a playdate there, a gnome had left them some treats! 

St. Louis Trip

We went to St. Louis for the weekend to visit our friends the Benbens and go to Elizabeth's 5th birthday party. It was a ballerina themed party and all the guests dawned tutus including Juniper. We went to the Magic House and had a rather hair raising experience (hardy har). 

Our little fish

Lotus has been taking private swim lessons with one of her favorite people, her teacher Kaleea. She has learned so much since she started a couple of months ago, really it's amazing. She can swim independently from one end of the pool to the other doing a perfect breast stroke. Kaleea calls Lotus her little fish. This is video of Lotus trying the back stroke for the first time.

There's No Place Like Gnome

Homes... We went in search of gnomes and found 5 of their houses. Sadly, all of the gnomes were out for the day. Lo and June had a great time looking in their houses and leaving them gnotes. We are currently working on building our own gnome home at our favorite park! 

Lotus Art

Lotus' artwork has been getting really good lately. Here is a portrait of Lotus' family that she did at school. ("My dog Marla"???):

Lotus went to the pumpkin hollow at Deana Rose on a field trip for school. Here she is with her pumpkins:

A spooky spider with a speech bubble that says "boo":

A scarecrow with a teacup:

The jury is still out on whether or not she is right or left handed. She is still switching back and forth, even for eating.
