Special time with Daddy
Today was a big day for Hannah and Alison. Hannah had a hip ultrasound and appointment with an orthopedic surgeon regarding her hip dysplasia. During her ultrasound, Alison explored OHSU with Daddy. They rode the tram (so much fun!!) and then the streetcar around Portland. Evidently, Alison charmed everyone she saw. :) JD and Alison came back to meet us in the waiting room between appointments for...

Mother's Day
Alison, I love “sing song, pray, talk about day.”  I love seeing your creativity blossom with each game, craft and pretend play.  I love watching your face light up when I suggest that we go outside.  I love talking with you about everything we see when we’re outside. I love how you put your shoes on the wrong foot and your pants on backwards. I love seeing you be such a kind and...

Summary: 30 months
Eating Alison is so great at trying new foods. It took 20 attempts, but she now likes tomatoes!! She also loves fresh fruit, peas, corn, raw carrots (as long as it’s the tiny baby carrots), and CHEESE. Oh, and anything with sugar. Playing Alison (ie. JD) got train tracks and a car mat at Ikea a couple weeks ago. Hours of entertainment there! She also has had a renewed interest in puzzles...

Honest Ali
Alison came to me holding a train car and told me that she needed to put it onto the counter because she had thrown it. A bit blown away, I did manage to thank her for her honesty.

We had a full weekend celebrating Easter twice! Two egg hunts, tons of playtime at each grandparents house and some amazing food. As always, a fun weekend that went by way too quick. Pictures to follow…

We had a wonderful, long walk in the sunshine this morning. The sunshine has warmed us and made for a great Friday. So happy we’re all feeling better and slowly getting over these colds. :) Alison ran down a wood bridge and looked at ducks at a park. She kept peaking down to look at the sidewalk while we walked. It made me a little nervous that she could get a finger caught in the wheel! We...

Mary Poppins
Alison is a huge fan of Mary Poppins! This morning she kept requesting I sing songs from the movie. So, of course, I made good use of my handy-dandy laptop and found lyrics online. Everything is a song to this girl! She loves to narrate by song what she’s doing. It’s so sweet and I love how happy her heart is. :) ~ Erica

Alison has a cold
I noticed it yesterday, but it didn’t completely register until she woke up all sneezy and drippy this morning. She’s in surprisingly good spirits, considering. We had a ton of focused play time this morning - train tracks, puzzles, etc. She also likes to line up all her DVD’s for some reason. :) Giving her some extra attention when she’s sick helps her stay focused and...

Beach trip!
This weekend we went to Neskowin with Great-Grandpa and Great-Grandma Peters. It was Alison’s first time at the ocean. She loved it! We stayed at a big beach house, located on a large hill, overlooking the beach. The pathway to the beach was located across the street from our house - very convenient! The forecast said that the weather was supposed to be cold and rainy, but we surprisingly...
