I thought this wasn't supposed to happen until she was 2! This video was in direct response to specific questions, but very often these days, she just walks around, waving her hand and saying "no no no no" over and over. We think maybe she's just getting herself ready in case we ask her to do anything she finds objectionable. =) This morning, before I could intervene, she threw an entire roll of toilet paper into the toilet, looked up and me, told me "no no" very sternly, and then turned around and headed for more action.

Animal sounds
Audrey learned today what a snake says. We also tried to demo her other animal sounds, but of course, she wasn't fully ready to cooperate for the camera. =)
Little Buckaroos at the Rodeo
This was the intermission at the rodeo. 5 and 6 year olds riding sheep instead of bulls. It was so cute!
A great weekend with Heidi
We went to the beach in La Jolla, to a rodeo, to Cabrillo, on a sightseeing airplane ride over San Diego, and to the world famous zoo. We had a great time having Heidi in town ... I hope the next time we see her, we're in Zurich! The last picture is of her practicing her straw-drinking skills with air ... I guess it's less messy that way. =)

Iain's Spanish TV debut
Iain was interviewed on Spanish-language Channel 7/39 NBC about a SAR case! Here's the video clip: http://video.nbcsandiego.com/player/?id=277752. Watch it starting at timer 3:52. (Note that the timer on the video counts DOWN starting at 7:11, so you'll have to watch 3 minutes of Spanish news or fast forward to 3:52.)

Disneyland
We took Audrey to Disneyland on Friday. We rode the Jungle Cruise (she was neutral), Dumbo (she liked pushing the button to go up & down), the Carousel (she liked it & was very good at holding on), Finding Nemo (neutral), saw the Characters Parade (liked watching from Daddy's shoulders), and visited the petting zoo (she LOVED it ... there were only goats and one sheep, but these were the most docile goats we have ever seen ... I think she could have stayed there all day). We were there for about 6 hours, she was in a great mood the whole time, and this is some video of us leaving the park.

Our patriotic girl
The determined look on her face is because she's headed to the fence to see the ducks!

Congratulations, LCDR McConnell
Congratulations Iain! He was promoted to Lieutenant Commander on Tuesday, July 1. Audrey and I are VERY proud of him.
The ceremony was on the base in San Diego with the beautiful bay as the backdrop.
Iain's parents and our friends Al and Joyce, Aeriale and Titus were there to celebrate with us.
I love you, honey!
