Tidbits of stuff

There are several things I want to record here that I just haven't had the chance to yet. Hopefully I'll have time to expand on some of these soon....

1. I can't believe how much you LOVE your books! There are nights that you touch none of your other toys, just your books. And you love the library at daycare too.
2. At daycare there's a window between your room and the bigger kid room. Its just a few inches off the floor so you can sit there and enteract with the other kids through the window. Last week your teacher said that there's a new little girl in the other class and she's been crying a lot. You see her crying and you sit there blowing kisses to her.
3. You are REALLY into the kisses lately! When I pick up your coat, you start blowing kisses to your teachers.
4. You still cry most mornings when I drop you off, but otherwise the separation anxiety is getting much better. You randomly reach for people now, including some strange old woman in line at Wal-Mart last weekend. I think you made her day with your smiles. Today you reached for Miss E as we were leaving daycare.
5. You are getting very good at making your wants known---whining and reaching for them mostly. You've even started leaning over towards your crib at night and whimpering to go to bed. Looks like you're outgrowing being rocked to sleep. Sigh.
6. Food is your friend the last few days! After weeks of barely touching anything at daycare or barely eating anything other than Kix cereal, momma started you back on reflux meds last week. I don't know if that's doing it or not, but you're eating, sleeping better, and seem happier. You still love your Kix, avocado is still a favorite, and you'll try about anything momma's eating. A week or so ago you wouldn't eat your Gerber ravioli, but when you were on momma's lap you started opening your mouth following momma's chopsticks around. So you had some seaweed and octupus from momma's salad. You liked it!
7. We started water babies class last week. You like putting your face in the water. Last night you also decided you liked "jumping" in. You'd lean toward the side of the pool, reach, and whine until I'd take you over to the side and stand you at the edge of the pool. Then you'd bend your knees and ready to jump until I'd take you and "jump" you into the water.
8. Momma had a big oopsie moment last night--she forgot to take a diaper to the gym to put on you when we got dressed after we got out of the pool. So you came home with a gym towel wrapped around you under your clothes. Luckily we came straight home.
9. You still don't trust yourself to walk. Momma's anxious for you to start walking even though I know it's going to be harder once you do.
10. You love Speckles. You just squeal when we get home and she's dancing around, excited to see us. You try to share food, but haven't learned yet that once you give her a bite, you don't get it back. I thought you were going to take a bite of her puppy treat before giving it to her this morning though.

I'm sure I'll think of more as soon as I go to bed. But for now, it's time to say good night, go take a shower, and go to bed.
