Cookie

Amelia said "cookie" today! I'm so proud. She loves the frosting coated animal cookies. She loves saying prayer. Every time we say it she folds her arms. She's pretty good about keeping them folded till we say "Amen." We try to keep it short for her sake (and ours too).
Today is another beautiful rainy day in Cordova, Alaska. I decided to do some serious car shopping. Thank goodness my Mom was around to help. She's a serious shark when it comes to dealing with car salesman. Good to have her speak for me. I'm ok at dealing with getting a car, but she's REAL GOOD! So we are going up to Anchorage on Thursday to take it for a test drive and hopefully PURCHASE!
Amelia loves having her Daddy home on the weekends. So do I. She's spent the last 10 minutes blowing raspberries on Jared's tummy. Cracks us up. She likes to give her little sister (my tummy) kisses when it's time to cuddle right before bed.
Yesterday she was helping me get cans of spaghetti sauce out of the storage room when my Mom came home from work. Usually we see Grandma coming home from the driveway and she gets to great her at the door. It's an exciting event for both of them. So when Amelia comes out of the storage room to see Grandma is home and she didn't get to great her at the door she was not pleased at all. She wouldn't go to Grandma. Wouldn't say hi. Nothing. So I told my Mom to leave and then come back. Well Grandma went around the corner of the house and we did our "Grandma's home!" routine. Amelia was thrilled to run down the porch and great her. I'm glad we figured this out.
