I like Auntie Vincy because...

She reads to me...

from a toy catalog.

Pushes me on the swings...

fast and high just how I like it.

Shows me how to do the still rings...

and protects me from the big rude kids.

Takes me down the slide...

again and again and again. :)

This past Sunday Auntie Vincy invited us to have dim sum with her family and we happily accepted. Afterwards we went for yogurt down in downtown San Mateo. Next to the yogurt shop is a nice toy store called Talbots. Lauren had a fun time playing with the display toys in this store. It had the outdoor play gyms, some pull wagons, and some display doll houses that she looked at. She really liked this tiny wooden kitty that was a part of this Plan Toys doll house. She walked around with it and kept saying "Mow Mow". She also kept going to the ball display to take out the big purple ball to play with.

After playing in the toy store we walked to the park. She wanted Uncle Micah to carry her but we forced her to ride in her stroller. She played in the sand for a little bit showing us how to shovel sand into the air with some of it landing in her bucket. Lauren then moved on to the swings where she was having a grand old time with Auntie Vincy. Every time we asked her if she wanted to get out of the swing she would sign "more". After the swings she got to play on the slide which she loves. Once she goes down she tries to climb back up to do it again. Auntie Vincy was nice enough to take Lauren down the big slide on her lap.

Thanks for spending time with us Auntie Vincy and Uncle Micah. Lauren really enjoyed her time with you guys!
