Colleen and I have been pretty busy lately so the postings have been a bit sparse. That does not mean that our little girl has stopped doing adorable and amazing things .... it just means that her old man has been a bit tired.
Sequoia continues to bring an interesting twist and interpretation to all of our activities and we have a hard time not simply sitting there watching her. We joke that she is probably going to attend Clown College on a full scholarship.
Her ability to find amazement in every new little discovery has been an eye opening lesson for me. I just about die laughing every time she gets into one of her laughing modes - lately peek-a-boo with Colleen has been the funniest thing going.
Sequoia will let out a series of belly laughs every time mommy magically reappears from behind her hands. She also loves when I play my guitar with her or get my bongo drum out - but especially the guitar. She squeals with excitement and wants to touch it and sing along. I have not once been let down by my number one (possibly only) fan. Her favorite chord appears to be a basic G.
Speaking of her singing, which she hopefully has inherited from Colleen, Sequoia has been reveling in exploring her voice. To the untrained ear it often sounds as if she is having a fit(which makes me think she may have gotten my voice), but she is just working her way through some very animated and often loud conversations with whatever turtle or bear happens to be in her grasp at the time.
We are both hoping that she learns to walk prior to her eating her own feet off. I guess it is a combination of factors ranging from teething to the old "because I can" but for whatever reason, Sequoia loves to gnaw on her feet - sometimes managing to get both in her mouth at once. That is a trait that I think she got from me, although being flexible has nothing to do with how my foot usually ends up in my mouth....
Anyway, just in case she is successful in her quest to chew her feet to two little nubs, I thought we should document how cute her feet are now ...
Sort of darling aren't they?

Wow our little Sequoia is getting cuter every day. Now that she's five months old, she looking more and more like the lovable little girl that she is.
I've been getting a little grouchy around the house lately, so Mamasita said I must be needing another "Sequoia fix". Time to pack up the old wagon and go see our little cutie soon.
Pop Pop said it all, once again...too cute for words is our little (?) Seuqoia Girl. Love those pictures of her rolling around and playing with her feet, those adorable apendages! The Peek a Boo months are so fun, too...the belly laughs and the never ending surprise of seeing someone appear from behind some barrier. Over and over again....it never ceases to amaze, does it?
Wish we could see her and hug her and play with her and rock her to sleep, etc. Those times will come yet, we keep telling ourselves.
Bye and love you guys! Grandmom and Granddad
