grrrl in the hood

On a not-so-sunny Sunday in the city, we explored a nearby strip-mall...

Sleepy's was closed, so I did sidewalk improv... I'm a method napper

it's... Xela-in-the-box!

when Mama said, let's go to the park,
I didn't think she meant industrial park

it's a bird, it's a plane, it's, umm, is that a rat?

buh-BYE!

a day in the life

What's Xela up to, you may ask...

I've been a busy girl. Today, for example. We had my 18-month check-up in the morning. Dr. Gordon's on maternity leave, so I saw a new pediatrician: Dr. LaGrega. She looked in my ears, poked my belly button, and listened to mermaids.

It was more fun for her than for me:

Mama let me play with the otoscope when Dr. LaGrega left
(Mama's a baaaad influence)

I almost have it figured out...

Where do you go after seeing the doctor? The PAHK!!!

the wind was fierce

... but the dogs were kissable

Finally, the best part: Cookie!

yep, it's fun being a Xela.

I'm going to check in more often, but for now...
hasta la oatmeal, baby.
