ow #4 :: fun ranch

it's my youngest daughter's 2nd birthday.

we brought her to fun ranch to play with her sister.

it was our first time.

here are the outdoor pics...

here's the view of the atrium from the 3rd floor.

my eldest tried the hanging bridge.

floating cabanas where food can be served.

oh! a watermill!

we wanted to try the bumper boats but...

next stop... the avilon zoo.

look at the gorgeous bougainvillas!

I'm happy to share these shots with

Susan at A Southern Daydreamer for Outdoor Wednesday this week!

baby steps

... scissor
not quite 3, i'm a bit apprehensive to let her hold a scissor. but for quite a number of times, when she sees me holding a scissor, she'd run up to me, paper in hand and pretends to cut the paper with her fingers - "tsitsor, mommy". one time, i gave in. after a deep breath, i handed her a small tsitsor, more papers, sat down together and taught her how to use it. we both held the paper in one hand while her another hand maneuvers the tsitsor from the bottom going up, from right to left, until...success! a piece of paper! and i tell you, there's no stopping her!

she's cutting bits of papers in various random shapes. i'm trying to teach her how to cut papers by following a line or a shape but she's still impatient. so i let her be.

she's cutting scrap fabric

and she snipped her hair too! yikes!

i turned my back for a while and when i looked at her again, there were strands of hair on the table! goodness gracious! so far, after that hair incident, no accidents yet. hopefully none will come.

... sewing machine

when she's done "cutting", and sees me in front of the machine, she'd sit on my lap and touches everything she sees. she helped me do a project. she sewed with me, with both our hands guiding the fabric through the machine while sitting on my lap. I'd like to see the day when she steps her way to using that machine all by herself.

she even helped me stuff it.

our teamwork yielded this.

thank God, we made my swap partner happy.

play kitchen

gather empty boxes and other thingamajigs

in short, junk! :D reverse the boxes to use the clean side
cut, tape, cut, glue, and...
tadaaa!
few minutes later...
top view

love how it looked like almost real in this shot
the table and chairs turned out so nice

the littlelady was so excited to play

i even caught her trying to sit on the chair.

i had a good laugh seeing her struggling to fit her behind on that tiny chair.

imagine a scene like this...
