Since the weather has been so crappy and now that that I feel like a beached whale I feel like we have camped out at home ALOT. Yeah.....I know poor Emmi. But I can say Emmi has improved tremendously on her independent play. Sometimes an hour has passed and she is still quietly playing.
Her new things......"cooking", and playing "rock-a-bye-baby" with her babies. She learned this one from her dance class. She gets her baby in a blanket and she swings the baby back and forth and sings the whole song. Her little voice couldn't be any cuter and what's even more impressive is that she can carry the melody perfect. She loves to read her books by "self". And she LOVES playing in the bathroom sink water. She supposedly is "washing dishes" We have complete meltdowns when that game has to end. She loves listening to the Mama Mia soundtrack and playing the "color game". My homemade game that has been a favorite of hers. The potty is a new love too. Her cousin gave her a potty and she asks to go potty all the time. All be honest it is getting quite old taking on and off the diapers and then she just sits on it for like 2 seconds and then gets up and goes and gets toilet paper to "wipe" and then no pee. She has been successful a couple of times. Brian and I applauded....jumped up and down.....gave her high 5's and did a little dance. She looked at us like we were retards.
Now that the weather has seemed to make a change we have been outside the entire day. Jumping on the tramp of course is an activity that she can do for hours. Especially when all of her friends come over and jump with her. Such a highlight......
I just pray this weather is here to stay!!!
