The new word of the day is “Old Macdonald”. This is what our daughter asked for this morning and continued to impress us with it throughout the day. I couldn’t believe it when she repeated it after me. She loves the one video that I have for her; Baby Einstein’s Old Macdonald’s Farm. She asks to see it repeatedly. It’s as popular as her wagon. So when she asks for it by name and with such clarity, it’s hard to turn her down. It gives you 45 minutes of baby-free time to do chores around the house. It’s amazing. I can see why people give in to the tv thing although that isn’t in my plans.

Yesterday, we attended our second series of Kindermusic classes with a new instructor. It was 100 times better than with the last instructor and Edzea can actually follow along with some of the actions now. She loves to pretend to swim like a fish during the fish songs. She loves to pretend swim so as soon as the pool re-opens we’ll be back in the water.

We had our welcome back morning to the family centre today. It was a nice change. Edzea enjoyed herself as usual. She especially likes the kitchen area with the dolls/babies and the water play area. I had a hard time moving her from the water station once she discovered it. She needs a chair to boost herself to participate in it but it doesn’t deter her.

We have the family centre for the rest of the week and also gymnastics free play which should be interesting as she seems to like to climb things now.

Also, the minute that we pick up Daddy from work now the first and only word out of her mouth to him is “wagon” over and over and over again. So, the new ritual is that Daddy takes her for a wagon ride as soon as he gets home. This girl NEVER forgets that her wagon is around even though it is hidden in the garage.

Bye for now.
