Guildy is almost two. Almost-two-year-olds are busy people. On any given day, Guildy's activities include reading books, going to get milk, swimming, playing with the neighbor kids, visiting Lizzy the neighbor lady, coloring, napping, smearing food, going potty, singing, 'helping' cook and do laundry, dusting, sweeping, climbing, watching a movie, eating snacks, telling stories, jumping on the trampoline.....and the list goes on and on. Of course she has to be supervised in all these activities, so it's no wonder Josh and I are so exhausted by the end of the day! So here are a few pictures from the very busy life of our very busy Guildy.
Last Sunday, our old neighbors from San Luis came over with their little girl, also named Linzy. The presence of Linzy always causes a flare up of jealous behavior from Guildy.....it's rough not being the sole center of attention! But in spite of the jealousy, they posed nicely for some pictures.
And to think people spend money on toys! Sure these covers from the caulking tubes are a little sharp and pointy, but they don't conduct electricity and when place on the fingers, they prevent a toddler from picking up and subsequently destroying anything else. That makes them a winner in my book!
Our neighbors in the next house have a great trampoline, and it's a favorite hangout for all the kids and their friends. In the picture below, Gabey, Stefani, Karen, Guildy, and Ana were enjoying an afternoon break last week. On Monday, when I got done teaching, Guildy and her babysitter, Vanessa, plus the girls in the picture below, were all sitting on the trampoline eating green mangos dipped in a mix of vinegar, salt, and a chicken bullion cube.....quite the Honduran delicacy!
