Fourth Swimming Lesson

Waiting for coach Jen.

She starting kicking her feet while on her back.

Eva is getting better at blowing through her nose

Keep it closed!

Keep kicking!

Rotate!

Eva will be swimming by the end of next week. Still we have to keep up with the safety through all summer.

Back home, Eva needs to stretch. Reversed plank is not as easy as it seems.

Chai Tea Time. "This is a lovely time". 

Coquillettes with Tomato Sauce

Build it!

Eva built a flower.

Ice cream was long overdue. Chocolate Nutella and strawberry ice cream from the Gilbert farms at Melt.

It was a fun day! 

Fun Friday

Eva likes those letters that Mimi sent for her birthday.

Eva watched the movie Alice from the Czech director Jan Svankmajer and got some inspiration afterwards.

"That is a white furry lady holding her heart in her hands. The rain comes down from the clouds and took the heart up in the sky".

Today we'll watch Mary Poppins.

Birthday Girl

Eva turned 4 years old today! 

Simone is the birthday girl's best friend.

Kiki and Coco in Paris. 

She is not a baby anymore but she will always be my baby (I am quoting Grandma Shirley).

Chocolate cake :) 

It looks like three candles but there are 4 of them on the cake. Grandma Shirley wanted to add one more for good luck. 

Eva had a great day. She even had a surprise visit from Kevin, Zuzana, and baby Anna. Eva shared her birthday balloon. Anna was so happy!! 

Thank you again for your thoughts and presents. Eva loved every bit of it.
