Sofia is 11 months!
Sofia is 11 months old! Happy as ever, after a little temperature over the weekend.
Oh my! I'm tired of so much eating...
Hey, do you want to see something?
I can close it!

Baby happy, baby sad
A very cute book - Happy baby, sad baby by Leslie Patricelli - that nowadays delights Sofia. Thanks, Erin!

Sisters' drawings
Beatriz drew me and Daddy in a lovely garden with a giant pumpkin tree (due to a G she drew for Mariana).
Mariana drew 4 girls and 1 boy (really outnumbered!) playing together and then wrote that with my help. Such great little artists these two sisters!

Sofia's 1st drawing
Uau! What's this magic green coming out of this stick?
Let me try one more time...
Look B! I can do it just like you and Mariana!
Look at me, Mommy, I can do it!
And now a new sheet just for me, Mariana!

Finally eating!
The colorful dish: turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, green beans, salad and gravy. What not to like?
Sofia tries her first corn on the cob. So many firsts!
And eliza finally joins the girls at the table.
Don't eat yet! We still need one more picture!

Kiva
Para quem não souber em que gastar o dinheiro ou simplesmente quiser ajudar um bocadinho o mundo, aqui fica uma organização sem fins lucrativos cheia de boas ideias que na verdade funcionam: Kiva (http://www.kiva.org/).
Já sabem, se estiverem a considerar mandar-me uma prendinha de Natal, párem, cliquem neste link e escolham uma boa causa (são todas demasiado boas, infelizmente!), façam a vossa doação e sintam-se bem por terem feito a diferença.

Pause to eat our snacks and take a photo on the timer.

Fancy Nancy party at Borders
Profiled sisters carefully listening to the instructions.
Title scavanger hunt.
And the prizes! More hairpins to add to the "fancyness". Note all the necklaces and bracelets the sisters decided to wear. All sponsored by me (I loved to go through my Mom's jewelery box when I was their age).

Picnic at CMU
Friday was such a gorgeous day that I packed a picnic and had it with Vasco at Carnegie Mellon.
Sofia had lots of fun crawling on the leaves. So many!

I like my sisters bikes!
So interesting this bell! And it makes noise...
I can push this bike!
What, Mommy? Sooner or later, I'm going to try it!

Magusto em Carnegie Mellon
Hoje foi dia de magusto em Carnegie Mellon. Que belas estavam as castanhinhas assadas!
Até deu para uma sessão de fotos em família e para a Sofia experimentar a primeira castanha assada (digamos que estava mais impressionada com as cascas pretinhas e o cartuxo que a ASAE não deixaria passar em branco!)
Tirada pela Beatriz.
E depois foi a vez da Mariana nos retratar.
