Bluebonnets 2012

As you know, here in Texas we have lots of wildflowers! Every spring the Texas Bluebonnets go crazy and my auntie takes pictures of me in the bluebonnets. Here are this year's pictures.

Remember... if you pick the bluebonnets the police will come and put you in the pokey.

Writing a Book

Well, I have lived many years, toured the globe and seen many things. It is now time that I write a book. So what does a girl write about who has seen what I have seen and knows what I know? Yes, you guessed it, I am writing a story about the sea and sea creatures. It is totally awesome and full of my own personal illustrations.

I am almost done with my first book and should finish up the last four pages tomorrow. I will share pictures of my new book when I am finished.

How to Train Your Dragon

Listen to this. I have been reading the 'How to Train Your Dragon' books before bedtime with Mommy and Daddy. Each night Mommy and Daddy take turns reading the story to me. They both say it is something that they look forward to each night all day long.We all snug up on either Mommy and Daddy's bed or my bed and read a chapter. Right now, we are on the third book 'How to Speak Dragonese'. I love Hiccup and I adore Toothless. He is so funny and cute.

Ameliaism: Cheetahs

Amelia: Daddy, I am faster than a cheetah.

Daddy: Wow, that is really fast!

Amelia: Did you know that a cheetah is the fastest animal?

Daddy: I know, isn't that neat? They can run at about 70 miles an hour.

Amelia: Cool!

Amelia: Daddy?

Daddy: Yes, sweetheart?

Amelia: Maybe cheetahs like to eat cheetos. I think they do.

Daddy: Maybe.

Princes and Princesses

Amelia: Alright, Emery, you can be the princess. Anderson, you can be the prince.

Anderson: Yeah!

Amelia: Emery, I will be a princess, too!

Daddy: Cool! Who can I be?

Amelia: Well, you can be one of the servants.

Another tooth?

Guess what? I lost another tooth!

Can you believe it? This new tooth that I lost was really loose already when I lost my first tooth. The tooth fairy is never going to believe it!

Daddy and Mommy tell me that I look even cuter.

Guess What?

I lost my first tooth on Friday!!

And what did the Tooth Fairy bring me??? $5.00! 

I know... I am awesome!

St. Patricks Day

What an exciting St. Patrick's Day. Mommy, Daddy and I had a big day today. We had three St. Patrick's Day parties.

We got up, had breakfast and headed over with Auntie Aya, Uncle Eric, Emery and Anderson to join in a St. Patrick's day scavenger hunt party with our good friends the Scott's.

It was sooo much fun and so lovely. I'm serious. There were a bunch of other kids and there was this leprechaun that hid his treasure and left a bunch of clues for us to follow. We raced all over the ranch looking for clues.

Reading clues

Guess what? I found the treasure! There were a bunch of little gems inside a green bag and everyone got to have a gem. What fun!

I found the treasure

Getting a little case for my gem

Emery and Anderson getting their gem. They are soo cute.

After our fun with the Scott's, it was time to have more fun with my good friend, Pierce and his family. They were having a St. Patrick's Day party too at their house. They had all sorts of yummy food and an awesome trampoline in their backyard. I got to spend time playing with my good friends Sydney, Reagan and Pierce. So much fun!

The fun does not stop their. After our fun at Pierce's house, it was off to another St. Patrick's Day party at my friend Bella's party. What a blast. We had more great food and spent time with our good friends. Mommy and Daddy played this fun train game with the other adults while Bella and I played. I guess adults still play with toys too.

Pizza Shop

So my cousins Emery and Anderson shared with me a big secret... a restaurant where you can write on the walls with CHALK!! It's the best place EVER! If mom and dad ask me where I want to go to dinner, my only reply is CRAIG-O's!!! Here are some pictures of my latest Craig-O's Pizza masterpiece.

See the princess in the middle? That's mommy. She has really pretty hair.

See the girl next to the man with the crown? That's me...
And the man with the crown? That's my prince: Daddy.

So many princesses... so little chalk.

Hello there...

All the princesses were waiting to get on the bus.

Mom... can we PLEASE eat at CRAIG-O's again TOMORROW???
PLEASE????

Making cupcakes

Holy moly, Mommy, Daddy and I found the best invention ever when we were out shopping today. It is a machine called the Topping Tornado. It makes putting sprinkles on cupcakes so much fun that we had to buy it that minute and go home to make cupcakes.

Here is the Topping Tornado

When we got home, we immediately got to work. It was so much fun. Mommy and I made the cupcakes and then Mommy made a really delicious frosting for the cupcakes. Daddy and I worked on putting the sprinkles on the cupcakes. It was a lot of fun. We did a lot of experimenting with different sprinkles. One of our cupcakes "accidentally" tipped over inside and got chocolate on the Topping Tornado. Daddy let me help with the chocolate cleanup. Yum. :)

We sprinkled those a cupcakes in no time flat. Then Mommy, Daddy and I sat down to a delicious treat.

Then we all snuggled upstairs and read the next 'How to Train Your Dragon' story 'How to Be a Pirate'. We are really enjoying reading the story together.

Wait a minute -- I just realized that I never showed you what the cupcakes looked like after we decorated them. Silly Amelia. If you want to know how delicious they tasted you'll just have to stop by and enjoy one! That is, if Daddy hasn't eaten them all. Silly Daddy.

Yum!

Too big

Amelia: Daddy, did you know that if you were to lay on my bed, you would knock over all of the lovies?

Daddy: I think you are right, love bug.

Amelia: Yes, I think that you are too big for my bed.

Daddy: I think so.

Amelia: Yeah, nothing can pick you up.

Daddy: Nothing? I'll bet someone could pick me up.

Amelia: Well, you can pick anything up. You are sooo strong! Soo strong!

Daddy:  Anything? Well, I hope that I can always pick you up.

Amelia: Yeah, me too. That is the best.

Jacket

(Getting ready for bed)

Amelia: Daddy, you have to remember for my whole little kid life, when it is cold, I need a jacket for school and when it is hot, I don't need a jacket. OK?

Daddy: Sounds like a plan, sweetheart. I will remember that.

Mommy

Well, this week my Mommy is helping my Nami, so she had to get on a plane to go to her house. I miss her already, but I am happy to share my Mommy because if anyone can help Nami feel better, its my Mommy. She always knows the best thing to do to make me feel better.

Here is a letter that I wrote to her today:

It says:

Dear Mom, You're awesome. 

You're fun. I Love You

I cannot wait to give it to her when she gets home!

Diorama

Guess what? I have been working on a class project called a diorama. Sounds fancy, doesn't it? It has really been a lot of fun! I made a diorama of mountains and animals that live in the mountains. I got to use this stuff called paper mache. It is really is really neat! Then I got to get these neat animal figures to put in my diorama. It was a lot of fun and I want to make another one for my animals to play in.

Here is my finished diorama:

Scientists

Amelia: Daddy, do you know that the first people were scientists?

Daddy: Really? I think that you are right.

Amelia: Yeah, they were. I know.

Daddy: What kind of scientists were they?

Amelia: You know, scientists.

Daddy: Were they born with lab coats on?

Amelia: Yes.
