A jolly good time, that

Uma has been sick for the last couple of days. Tending to her in the middle of the night, I said, "we'll do something fun tomorrow," thinking of the playground or something like that. Her idea? "We can pretend to be sick."

Quite impressed by her first fireworks

If I have seen a little further...

She was much happier away from the heavy crowds

Bundled up

Unnecessarily, as it turned out, but she sure likes them gloves.

Open-minded to colors

"When I first saw red and blue, I didn't think they were my favorite colors. But now I like them."

Apparently he has more important things to look at.

Monsters and dragons to bite her

Ok, so it's at 3 years and 7 months that little kids become afraid of monsters in the night, if Uma is anything to go on.

52 degrees

And this is what she insisted on wearing outside. That's 11 ° C for you folks overseas.

Going walking

The side pony-tail is a must when riding next to Mr. Grabby Hands.

She's gotten used to the hair-pulling

Surprisingly relaxed about it.

Uma can swing herself these days

Though she does like a boost.

Safety... last?

I was going to let her scoot without all the gear, but she insisted. And then, after I got it all on her, she changed her mind.

I think that means she isn't impressed

Samples at the grocery

If they don't have tortilla samples, Uma gets mad. And you wouldn't like her when she's mad.

The big attraction at the airport

Down...

Back up.

We did down again, but she wanted the stairs that time, so even this reckless father thought it imprudent to use the camera.

Stair-climbing

She's doing it wrong.

The direct approach

Ever since Halloween, Uma has enjoyed saying "Boo!" and having me yell "Aaaah!" It's getting a little old. At dinner, I told her it wasn't working anymore, and I wasn't getting scared. So she tried something different: "You're scared!"

Like peas in a pod

Napping at Grandma's

There were lots of people and lots of noise, but she dutifully lay down and took a solid 75-minute nap. She would have slept even longer, but I woke her up (after taking this picture) because it was getting late (DST change).

An uncurious child

Jessica: Uma, do you want to see something?
Uma: No.

Admittedly, this was just after she woke up, but still... That usually works.

I guess "No" isn't much of a quote, and it's certainly not remarkable coming from a small child, but still...

She's probably saying something like...

"No cameras at dinner." We'll never know.
