Amélie loves doing crafts, here is one of her creations:

She also is showing some promise for engineering/architecture, with 'buildings' she decorates:
In May, we loved having our friends from Bloomington come and visit us in DC. We hope to see them again soon!!!
In May, Amélie also 'graduated' from pre-school. She and her classmates treated the parents with a show of about 10 songs, some in French, some in English, and she really got into the whole thing. She practiced quite a bit, and still knows most of the songs. It was beyond cute to watch:
Also, the tooth fairy came for Amélie's 2nd tooth, she got money which she chose to spend on socially responsible lip balm (which she promptly forgot about in less than 10 minutes after it was bought, fickle is the child...):

Now that summer is here, Amélie is taking full advantage of the pool on the roof of our building, she loves water (like her dad)! She has also started swimming lessons:
Summer fun is only getting started!
