Well, it has been over a month since our last post… too long I know. But, since Julia can’t actually type, she is on her mom’s schedule, which does not include blogging during the end of the school year crunch. But, summer is here, and so is baby, no wait, toddler blogging! Hopefully a new page design will be up soon, but that is Daddy’s domain, so you will just have to be patient for a while longer.

As for actual Julia news, her biggest feat as of late is peeling and eating a mandarin orange all by herself. No help whatsoever. That’s it. Well, maybe eating oranges on her own isn’t the only thing she is doing now, but I happen to think it is pretty great. She is home for the summer with me, her mom, which I have been looking forward to since September!

Her newest game these days is to have someone ask “Who are you?” and she will reply a variety of names (Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grampa, Ryan, Sharyl, Kayla, Paige…) to which we say no until she says Julia! She seems to enjoy this quite a lot. She loves puzzles, and completes them quite quickly. She knew the letter “Q” for some reason today, and knows most of the basic colours except for red, brown, grey, and white. Julia talks non-stop when she is at home, plays shy around strangers, and loves to dance! She sings along with the radio, and now has a skip in her run.

Check back for more posts this summer, as I will try to keep everyone a bit more updated on the life of our girl Julia. Also, feel free to check out the gallery, there are new pictures of June posted.
