67. Birdcall

One of Bea's favorite new activities is listening to bird calls on the computer with her daddy's birding software. She is very specific about what birds she likes. If she is displeased she will shake her head and we will move along to a different bird. She likes the Barred Owl. She did not like the Mallard. Strange. Here she is listening to the Eastern Wood-Pewee.

Other recent activities:
-She not only likes to wear my gloves, she likes to wear my socks.
-She pretends to eat cat food out of a dish like a cat.
-She tries to feed the cats.
-She pretends to feed water from her sippy cup to her stuffed animals, complete with drinking sound effects.
-She tries to blow the cats noses.
-She presses Play on the answering machine so she can listen to messages her Grandma Mary leaves for her. Yesterday, while listening to the messages, she accidentally called Grandma Fox on speakerphone, so she was able to listen to BOTH grandmas at the same time.

Here she is blowing a kiss.

66. Gloves

This was her idea:

65. Interpretive dance

Notice Bea's fantastic point-and-bounce move at the beginning. She had been doing that for quite some time before I found the camera. (And no, she isn't dressed for a tap class or a poetry slam in a smoky bar--she is in half of her Halloween costume.)
