Sylvia is 2-1/3


...Yes, Sylvia is really that big... and that big of a goofball!

She's also very sweet, a lot of fun, and super bossy!

We're back from our temporary apartment, which is good, and Sylvia made the transition like a champ.

I'm not sure exactly when it happened, but I can now have nearly coherent conversations with my baby girl. She tells me about her day, tells me what to do, argues with me, and says hilarious things to us like "No way, mama!" and "What's up, daddy?"

It's difficult to take pictures and videos of her now, because as soon as she sees the camera she asks, "See it please? See Syl-wah please?" and feverishly tries to get behind the camera. We haven't yet convinced her that we need to TAKE the picture before she can see it.

Sylvia had a very nice third Thanksgiving at my uncle's house. It was fun actually hearing her try to say, "Happy Thanksgiving!" And she had so much fun playing with her family. She was already very attached to her cousin Amelia, but by the end of the day, they were inseparable.

Here are some of my favorite pictures from the past month...

dancing around in her mittens...
watching the otters at the zoo...
...and the penguins...
and painting in the bathtub...
