Spring 1992- 3/30/2010

You were the most sensitive and gentle kitty. We love you and will miss so much.

4.5

We went to ice cream for Tia's half birthday. (Yea, I know, I'm a month and one-half behind.... I'm trying!)

The farm

I put this entry in a collaborative tool I've been using and thinking about using in the context of elementary schools with kids creating. Kira liked doing the blog post with me, but then she left me when her sisters started doing something more interesting.

You can see pictures from the kindergarten field trip to the farm. When it starts it should just play for you. If it's too slow for you, click the right arrow at the bottom to advance to the next picture. Let us know what you think of our pictures.

Happy Birthday to Nick!

The morning



Cinnamon toast, as requested by the birthday boy and made by the little girls.



Presents!



It's a laser measuring tool.

The evening





And in between we bought plants for the garden (pictures soon) and went to our favorite restaurant.

Trees

While we were walking around campus, the girls tried to climb trees.

Excuses, excuses

So you see, my computer is almost out of hard drive space, and now I'm only uploading the camera to the girls' computer. They play on it all the time and I never have time to make blog posts any more. And work has been a little crazy. Here's a few pictures from a few weekends ago when we went and walked around at S______ (big private university). They loved the statues, they kept calling them, "their husbands."

Then she drives

an ambulance.

Tia drives a fire truck

At the children's museum 3/7/2010.

shapes

Is there a better way to learn about shapes than this? Learning is tasty!

stylish!

No, Kira didn't get glasses. They look good on her though! We took a walk and she found them and put them on. We took the picture of her so she'd take them off. We left them where we found them and we hope their rightful owner came back for them.

fixed

Nat's resolutions. Could I be prouder?

Natalie

She's getting so big!

Safety tips

Nat made these at school.

Resolutions

Nat's New Year Resolutions that she did at school in the computer lab. (What great resolutions, eh?)

Tia's new car

She designed and built it herself.

On my honor...

Kira becomes an official Daisy Girl Scout. (2/21/2010)

More music box dancers

Later in the day, we went to Fort Point and walked around. (Also see the Wikipedia.) On the roof were these things....





They were perfect for music box dancers.



And then a final look at the ocean...They didn't want to go home.

A painting

Before we even went to the Golden Gate, Natalie painted this picture.

3 together

It's rare that they are all (almost) looking at the camera.
