Summer...and Somer news: Venice finally took her first steps at 13 months. She still prefers to push shoe boxes around.

Simi finally got her first hair cut. Only took 3 years and one month to get there! For those with curly hair, you know what I'm talking about. Its scary to cut; you cut a half an inch and it springs up 4 inches.


Chillin'. Venice is ready for a Cache Creek run. Too bad that's not on our horizon. Instead we spend our days in the pool. Also, if you look closely you can see her tiny pigtails.










Just a bit of silliness really. I put on a Biore pore strip, and when simi saw me she busted up. She said, "MOM! you are always so CRAZY!" So we had a mother/daughter spa moment, though simi's is just a strip of notebook paper-she thought that was what mine was.





























Did I say there is always a train? well, there is also always a hot tub. We have always wanted one some day. Finally, this spring, Robb designed and built his own. Its only solar-heated, but gets pretty hot by the end of the day. I love my Civil-Hydraulic-Structural-Engineer-hubby. Simi is the biggest fan of it. she calls it "her" pool.




















Just a typical "get up" that I find simi wearing on a day to day basis. I'm not exaggerating when I say there are not enough accessories in the world for this girl.

Simi-ismsso I haven't blogged much because I guess I haven't been getting enough sleep lately. A few days ago at dinner this was my convo with simi:

her: "Mom, are your eyes broken-ed?"

me: "No, how can my eyes break?"

her: "...oh...they just have all those CRACKS in 'em."

While on the subject...here are her top 10 favorite Phrases recently. If you are around her for a day you will hear a few of these several times repeated.

10. "Are you ready for it?"

9. "So....How was work, Daddy?"

8. "Wanna see my new trick!?"

7. "I don't wanna have Breakpist....I wanna have lunch!"

6. "Can I talk now?"

5. "This is delectable!"

4. "That's a GREAT idea!"

3. "....actually...yes..."

2. "Venice, you need to work on your manners..."

1. "Mommy, you are like the Bomb, Baby."
