Growing Up

Earlier this week we took Little Geek Girl to the doctor for her flu shot. She's gained almost a pound in a month!

Here she is at 115 cm (4 ft 9 in).  Oops.  That should be 3 ft 9 in.  She is not only 5 inches shorter than me.  Yet.  


And being silly. She's showing you her "hand snakes". They go everywhere with us. (Along with the Easter Bunny, the chocolate powder bunny, the alien, and her other "friends".)


She is also officially reading in English. It's kind of nice. She can pick up a book and read to herself while I cook dinner. And then she won't stop or respond to you when you speak to her, just like her mother. Here she is reading Ralph S. Mouse by Beverly Cleary.
