Some say we look alike

Just recently my Mom sent me this picture of me at about 18 months old. Here is one of Adéla taken last week. What do you think? I think we actually look a lot different!

Little Genius?

A few days ago we showed Addy a group picture of kids that she has played with here at Maják. We asked her, "Where's Abby?" and she pointed right at her picture. We got excited and decided to challenge her a bit more, so we pulled out a picture of all the adults - about 20. We were quite amazed when she pointed at almost everyone we said! We clapped and clapped, and she loved the praise. So, lastly, we showed her a picture from this past Christmas and said, "Where's Olivia?" and she pointed right to her! Do we have a little genius or what? Okay, maybe she's just a real people person!

Back from Camp

Wow! We had a super time at camp! Addy climbed up and down stairs and hills, over and under railings and mastered her new slide! It was a welcome break from city life and fun to see Addy blossom in new surroundings. Addy's friend Monika and her Mom and grandmother joined us for 3 days. You should have seen how well the two of them got along! In the mornings, Addy would run down the hill towards Monika's cabin yelling, "Moni, Moni, Moni!" Addy is comunicating more and more and adding many Czech and English words to her vocabulary. She loved camp food and fell asleep in her high chair at almost every lunch. You can imagine how funny that was!
