Out and About

Nice weather means Talia is on the move.

At the Henderson Bird Preserve, checking out
the cactus blooms that match her sun hat.


At the hot tub with Mom...


...and Dad (there's that stylish hat again).


In the pool with Dad. (Well, you gotta
start somewhere.)


Cooling off on the veranda at Talia Day Care.


Enjoying the Bellagio conservatory with Mamie and Ann.


Relaxing at the new M Resort during brunch.


Who knows where (or with whom) she'll be next?

Visit from Auntie Ann

Auntie Ann came back to visit Talia last week. It didn't
take them long to get reacquainted.


Ann and Mamie have been friends for a looooong time.
Even before Talia was born, if you can believe it.


Talia showed off her 'chubblies' (it's a Brit thing).


And Auntie Ann was here for Talia's first visit to a casino.


Ann shared her cell phone...


... and sunglasses.


But maybe best of all, she also shared her lap.

Easter Adventure

Talia decided to go to the 'Spring Fling' just down the road.
So she got all dressed up in her new outfit...


... but had to put on an extra layer due to
the chill in the air.


She met the Easter Bunny for the first time.


They got to know each other
pretty well.


She also met some new friends,
Courtney and Beau.


Then, time for the Easter egg hunt.
Talia found her first egg...


.. and knew just what to do with it.


Happy Easter everybody!

New Outfit

A message from Talia:

I got this new outfit from Aunt Margaret (more
about her visit in a future post). Thanks!


I especially like the matching panda and the
fashion-forward shoes (from Nidia;thanks). Arf!


Casual, yet dressy enough for work, too.


And when it gets warmer, I like the abbreviated
version.


Good for exercising...


... or just relaxing around the house.


Gotta go and get ready for lunch. Now, which
way does this thing go on again?
