I was in San Jose this weekend at my sister, Lisa's, house. I haven't seen my niece, Celia, for a ridiculous amount of time...I got there Friday night and got to spend a couple of hours with her before she went to bed. But the real fun began when we got up on Saturday...
After a tasty breakfast of french toast and sausage we went to Gymboree for playtime. While there, Celia got to play catch, basketball, and do some climbing. The Gymboree theme of the day was "dogs and cats," and she got to dress up as a "cat" to be chased by Lisa, the "dog."
However, Celia chose not to be chased, and preferred instead to see herself in the mirror and watch as she "wagged" her "tail."
We ran a couple of errands and then returned home. Celia and I spent some quality time playing in the backyard in her playhouse.
We also spent some time playing with her new sand table. Bill, my brother-in-law, had just gotten sand to fill it up. Yay! What fun!
Celia's friend, Rachel, came to dinner with her mom, Emmy.
The next morning, after a breakfast of delicious coffeecake, she joined us at the park.
Here are some pictures the girls drew: Celia drew a flower, and Rachel a train track.
I had such an amazing time! Celia is so beautiful and sweet :) She is growing up so fast. I am grateful for the time we had together.
