Spoon!

Matilda and Spoon have been getting along really well recently.

32 weeks

Pumpkin is at 32 weeks and looking good. Everything measures average for this age. 4ish pounds and  head down ready to come when it is time. 

Tooth fairy is coming tonight!

Someone pulled their own tooth out today at school. She was very proud of herself. 

First concert

Matilda went straight to the front row for the Sunday matinee of Spencer and the Walrus (Beatles covers) 

First chocolate covered Oreo

Snow!

School picture

Just the best school photos. 

She also went to the dentist this week and we found out she has 4 loose teeth! 1 is much more loose than the others (still only slightly so), so we'll have to have our tooth fairy plans figured out in the next few months.

Ballet

Brewer Woods

Another week, another hike or two. 

Self Portrait

4.5 yrs old

More hikes

Hiking

Went hiking at Hedgehog Mountain. Someone did about 2 miles without complaint. 

Pre K

Beach times

Camping

Third time backpacking this summer. This time with some friends, jack and wynn. 

Library Fest

Complete with a rock wall. 

Friends

Hops!

Perspective

Matilda's first attempt at perspective in art. She drew the table and vase with flowers. The square is bread and the circle is a bowl of rice. 

Elephant

Ballet photo

I don't know how her school photographer gets such nice photos, but the ballet photographer should take some notes. 

The symphony has kids concerts throughout the year. They have an instrument petting zoo and Matilda got to meet the puppets after. She loved the music, too. 

Spinning Skirts

Dresses and skirts used to be ranked by color, character, or fanciness. We have now evolved into only wanting to wear dresses and skirts that have "spinny-outy" skirts as shown by this dress.

Ballet Practice

Rehearsal for her ballet performance.

Mother's Day

Baseball!

Another birthday in the books!

3 parties

3 birthday parties in one weekend! 

She was asked to help blow out the candle. 

Daniel Tiger

Lots of fun with Nellie. 

Swim

We are trying swim lessons again. First lessons 1000% better than last year. 

Little Activist

Today we marched for gun control. Matilda made her own sign.
