Bathroom experiment

Having a shower in the morning has always been frustrating for me as it seems like AK whines the whole time she is in the bathroom with me. I tried something this morning - took her into the bathroom with me but didn't shut the door. I figured she was smart enough to be in the apartment by herself for a few minutes and wouldn't get into any trouble. Funny enough, she didn't even leave the bathroom. Guess leaving the door open was the trick all along?

We had a fun conversation during bathtime last night. AK was very grumpy and whiny, probably overtired. She seems to melt down during bathtime lately. I asked her if she was tired of sleeping in her crib and she stopped whining and started listening. I then told her how she'd be staying at Daddy's for the weekend, then on Monday when I picked her up, I'd take her to our new home and to her big girl bed. She stayed quiet and gave me a look like "keep talking Mommy, this is interesting!". So I am wondering if she has just had enough of her crib and doesn't like being in it anymore.

She showed me some of her paintings at daycare this morning. One was a sponge painting - the sponges were shaped like gingerbread men. The other one was free painting with their hands - the teachers said most of the kids are reluctant to use their palms and most use just their fingers. Looks like AK did a bit of both.

I can pick up the keys to the new place this afternoon - I will leave work a little early to do so :)
