Pictures, old and new
We often go to Angelinas, a local pizzeria with a kids area. Big Mika, the kids teacher, works there, and our friends Eddie and Arthur love going there as well. The kids love it, and the pizza is pretty good.
The kids love climbing the book case
Some times it's hard taking pictures of Camila because she keeps reaching for the camera
But Mika can be the same
Obligatory picture of Camila with frosting on her face
I love this picture
The girls have learned to peel garlic on their own - without mommy's approval, that is. They left garlic peel all over the living room and my office.
Mika loves to draw. Here is a pictures of kisses that she made
and here are snowflakes
and here are baby carriages
She also likes to write and is definitely ready to learn to read and write. She knows all her letters and is able to spell out words - like signs on the streets. But there are few words she can spell on her own. Her name is the most common one.
This picture is from a few months ago, but she still likes to dress like a ballernina. We haven't taken her to ballet classes because she was bored when she took them at 3 1/2. She thinks she knows all of it and doesn't need to learn. Still, we should try again.
My aunt María del Carmen in Argentina made this beautiful poncho for Michaela
Lately Mika has been into climbing everything, and the roof of her little structure is one of the easiest things for her to climb. We got this structure for free on the street.
Camila, meanwhile, loves to swing
Mika loves animals, snakes, bugs and all things of the sort.
Aren't they cute together?
