Sleeping Beauty

I love my new sleeping bag. Oh, what a lovely dress I have!

Christmas hypothesis

I am so lucky! I have so many new toys, I can't even decide what to play with first. I better use my science set to look into it. Merry Christmas everyone, and thanks!

What happens in Vegas...

...is awesome! I got to spend so much time with Emma. We went to a castle, swimming, saw some holiday lights and a surprising number of sharks. I even lost my first tooth!

So proud!

Today I was Student of the Week for room 103. I'm having a great day!

Mentor

Happy birthday to my buddy, Emma J! She likes to copy me, but I don't mind. I'm just teaching her how to play like a big kid.

Loophole

Kindergarteners aren't allowed to bring jewelery to school. But this little tiara is just a barrette that I need to keep my hair out of my face, right?

In the Square

I had a lot of fun with Mimi and Papi in Sonoma. The pond and the playground were a lot of fun. I also had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and hope you did, too!

Getaway day

Mimi and Papi came to pick me up from school today. We are going to have so much fun at the Cozy Cottage in Sonoma this weekend!

Kayak

I went on a kayak and had so much fun. Happy birthday to David, and thanks for the beach party!

Peas in a Pod

While our Dads are off solving puzzles all weekend, we are stuck in the couch cushions with nothing but healthy snacks, and our Moms. Come back soon, Dads! Love, Casey, Max and Josie.

So many costumes!

On Saturday, I was Snow White. On Sunday, a fairy. On Halloween, I was Tinkerbell at school and a witch for trick or treating. Boo!

End of the season

Today was our final day of T-ball. The Giants may not have won the World Series this year, but the Little Giants still got medals!

My pumpkin face

This weekend we went to a pumpkin patch. I picked out two cute pumpkins. I drew the face I wanted, and then Mommy carved. Her name is Orange.

School art

Gramalicia volunteered at my school a whole bunch. She even got Mommy to come in and help with an art project today!

Gramalicia week!

Gramalicia came to stay for the whole week while Mommy & Daddy were working in Mexico. We totally trashed the house, but then we cleaned it all up again.

San Francisco Days

We saw Chris Isaak at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass over the weekend. It was a really fun show, and Daddy danced with me!

Zoo birthday

My friend Kai's birthday party was at the SF Zoo. We had a lot of fun running around, and even got to see some animals. Mostly we just ran around!

No more pictures!

Can't we just get to Lauren and Ryan's wedding on the beach? Taking pictures is boring. I want to play in the sand and find seashells. And after that, dancing and cake!

Backyard

I have so much sidewalk chalk! I really like to draw girls with different hair styles. It looks like our backyard is really crowded now!

Field trip day

My class took a field trip to the California Academy of Science. I know my way around there, so I showed my friends how to pet a starfish.

School art

My teacher really likes art projects, just like I do! Some of our art gets posted on the bulletin board in the hall. These are pictures of our families.
I have an extra crown on my dress.

You may get wet

Now I'm big enough (and brave enough!) to ride Splash Mountain. I was pretty good at keeping dry, but not everyone in our group was so lucky!

I'm Five!

I had a great birthday party at Disneyland, and met five Disney princesses. But after a day of proper curtseys, Emma and I had to let loose at bedtime!

My city

This weekend, we walked out the front door and hiked up to Grand View Park. I could see the whole city, even my school, the Academy of Science and the Golden Gate Bridge!

Kindergarten

Today was my first day at Jefferson School! My classroom has a door that leads right out to the garden. Daddy & Mommy both came with to drop me off. It was fun!

Pirate Princess

Ahoy! I can row me own boat, ye landlubbers!

I love summer!

I am having the best time in San Diego with my cousin Emma! Zoo camp, the beach, and just getting to hang out together all the time is totally awesome.

Collecting

I love going to the beach. I find all kinds of interesting things to bring home. Plus, did I mention that I love sand?

Summertime in Chicago

I had a great visit with Papi and Mimi this week. I try to be extra silly to make Papi laugh, and he calls me squirt-kid!

Hola from Mexico!

I loved swimming every day on our trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Nonie and Doc were always willing to play with me, too!

SF Zoo Camp

I had a great time this week at Zoo Camp. We all made frog masks! Fun, fun, fun, fun!

Happy Birthday, America!

We went to the Giants game on July fourth with Nonie and Doc. I love AT&T Park. I even got to ring the bell on the cable car!

Super play-date

On Saturday I got to play with Katie, Noah AND Emma! We all got along great, and it was an awesome day in Palo Alto. I love Summer vacation!

Published

My first published artwork can be seen on the ConservationHeroes blog. Here I am painting the picture. You can see it here.

Max and me

Just kicking back and giggling a little.

Festival!

I got a heart painted on my face at the Telluride Bluegrass festival. Even though I got sick later in the weekend, and it snowed and rained, I still had a good time.

Graduation Day

Today I graduated from Wah Mei preschool. It was so much fun, I had to hold on to my hat!

Treasure and Adventure

Emma and I went on a treasure hunt on Pirate Island at Disneyland. We solved 3 clues, with some help from Nonie, Doc and Aunt Misha. Ahoy!

Artists at work

When Gramalicia was here, we were very busy mixing new paint colors. We didn't even have time to look up for a picture!

At the Zoo

We took Doc to the San Diego Zoo for his birthday, and rode the big tour bus, too!

Career Day

Last week Mommy came to school to talk about being a zookeeper. She even let us touch a real ostrich egg (which I never get to do at home)!

Potted Parrots

Nonie and Doc took me out to Trader Vic's to celebrate Doc's birthday, and I got all the toys!

A flower for Mom

This weekend I took Mommy to the Botanical Garden. She's the best!

Magical woods

I like to hike in Golden Gate Park, and find hidden places to take a break. I wear a dress and tights, so I'll look nice if a fairy sees me.

Zinger

I got a raspberry coconut Zinger in my Easter basket, just like Mommy used to when she was little!

Pretty eggs

I can't wait for Easter! We dyed eggs at home this weekend, and I get to dye more at school this week, too. Then we will hunt for them, just like pirates looking for treasure. Ahoy!

Story time with Max

Saturday I spent the day with my buddy Max. He likes it when I read to him, but he tries to put the book in his mouth. No, Max, no!
