Geography according to Nyla
Nyla's new shower curtain has a huge map of the world on it, and she's been learning some impressive geography for a 3-year-old: she can point out Africa, China, Iowa, and Kentucky. However, I was a little suspicious that she was memorizing the specific colors on that map, and would struggle on a new map in which Kentucky was not necessarily blue. Over the weekend we showed her a new map and asked her where Kentucky was. She looked at it, puzzled for a while, then said, "There it is!" She was pointing to Lake Superior.

Nyla quotes
Nyla continues to be fond of big words. Some recent examples include the following.
Nyla to Wyndee in the morning: "You're tired in the morning. I'm tired too. I recognize that."
Nyla on whether she would would like to move back to our condo: "No. It's too suspicious."
Nyla after spilling some cottage cheese on herself: "Mommy, I had a disaster."
Another cute thing she says lately is "not exactly," which is quite amusing coming from a 3-year-old. As in, "Does your grilled cheese sandwich taste good?" "Not exactly." "Do you want to sleep with this [really creepy-looking] stuffed Yoda doll in your bed at night?" "Not exactly."

Happy Birthday Nyla!
Nyla and her birthday cake.
Nyla on her bicycle. She has been asking us for one for a while now. She was super excited to get it as a present. Her reaction was the ideal reaction a parent wants when they give their kid a gift.

Campus
The Brehenys headed out for a walk around campus today. We all enjoyed the pretty flowers:
Nyla sat on a 300,000,000 year-old fossilized stump:
And everyone enjoyed the amphitheatre:
