That Bird Might be a Female House Finch!

This is a bird that might be a house finch, but my family and I are not sure.  In the meantime, what we are sure about is that this bird (which might be a mom, so mom thinks) flew around in our kitchen, but also in our living room and dining room.  The house finch might have come from the nest on the top of our left front light outside.  We got it out with a few try-and-fails.

Fun, Fun, and More Fun!

This is me at the Boston Children's Museum.  There is also Owen, as well as our throne.  The kid who is sitting on the throne is one year younger than me. 

 I am at the top of the rope Space Net, which is intended for ages 5 and up (even adults)! 

This is the Jackpot Mine.  I have ten minutes to collect as many gems as possible.  That blue plate is my collection.  What do you think? 

The Dessert Chef

I am the 'Dessert Chef'.  I only finished ONE dessert ever that I completely made!  I made the crust of a pie, if you count that as two, but that is it besides the doughnut-tasting muffins.  I want to make butterscotch ice cream sometime. 

New York City

 This is where you control a robot, which you want to get on all the lights.  The one under this picture, as well as this picture, were taken at Sony Wonder Technology Lab. 

This is the Shadow Garden.  My shadow blocks the sand, which looks like gems for some reason. 

 This is at the FDNY Fire Zone.  You actually control the water that would go though the hose! 

Those are melon-shaped chandeliers with REAL GOLD in a train station called Grand Central. 

I Hope I'll be a Winner!

     This is the certificate that everyone gets.  This is a math contest.  I won 82 points.  I will probably win a ranking in the tens or twenties nationally, but we don't know yet. 

My First Medal in a Chess Tournament!

     I have got twice the score of my other two tournaments, three points, and needed two-and-a-half points to get a medal.  A half a point less was for getting a medal.  I got a half a point more than needed for the medal.  I also got the certificate that everyone gets.  (At least the kids do, but the adults don't.)   

My First Blog With Glasses!

I'm wearing actual glasses!  This is my first blog with them.  I don't wear my glasses all the time, I only want them half of the time!  For example, I am not wearing them now.
