Too long away.....

I have been thinking about the blog so often and never getting to it. And then when I stay away too long it starts to seem overwhelming. Like I won't be able to catch up. Then I try to remind myself that although it would be nice to catch up. It would be wonderful to remember all of the awesome moments in the past few months like visiting family in Montana for Thanksgiving and seeing the Nutcracker ballet and watching "Miracle on 34th Street" over and over in Ohio over the holidays and playing with friends and stomping in mud and starting to ride a big bike with training wheels .... AND it is ok to just jump off from where we are right now.
I am in a rare situation right now. Johari is napping at home in our bed (typically we only catch naps these days in the car if any nap at all). My easiest way to jump in is to at least post some photos.

Her new bike. She really likes riding it in the neighborhood.

Doing a little BBQ on one of our many sunny winter days.

Feeding Eleanor while out for a stroll

Johari woke up one morning and decided she wanted to learn to use the sewing machine on her own. So that's what we did! She made a little quilt scarf and gave it to her grandma.

A little quilt blanket for her baby dolls that she made....with some unwanted help. She has the hang of the steps to working the sewing machine!

A drawing of people in her family if I am remembering right.

More projects!!!!

Her own version of Punky Brewster. She got a DVD with 8 episodes of the 80's TV show Punky Brewster. She likes to act out being Punky Brewster who is an awesome character!
