Full evening

Last night with AK was very full. There is lots of time to play when AK won't eat supper! Not sure what her problem was last night but, oh well.

We went outside to play with the playhouse for a while - AK thinks it's quite funny when I don't bend over to go in and run into the house instead. It's my way of getting out of going into the house as it's hot in there!!! She did let me open all the windows yesterday.

We read her Dora Rainy Day book... she is loving it a lot right now. She is becoming more and more chatty by the day. Once in a while, she counts appropriately (but for small numbers, maybe two or three), otherwise, she just recites the numbers. She also thought it was pretty funny when I used her toothbrush to brush all the teeth on her bath toys. She even gave it a try herself!

Another fun thing we did last night was do some yoga... I haven't tried any for a while as AK's attention span was just too short. She did great last night though - will have to pull out my book to refresh my memory of things we can do together. One of the exercises involves sitting facing each other, legs out, holding hands and rocking back and forth while we sing "Row, Row, Row Your Boat". Funny enough, AK knows most of the words! She also thought Tree Pose was pretty cool, and Bridge Pose too. And isn't it ironic that Child's Pose is the most difficult one for me to get AK into? Ha ha. She is quite a good copycat though, so I will continue to teach her.

She woke me up bright and early (6am ain't bad compared to before!) and snuggled in bed with me for a few minutes. She likes to play with my rings when we're cuddling. Methinks I need a line in the budget for sparkly things for AK (after shoes and purses). She devoured a bowl of watermelon for breakfast this morning.

I've gotten a few comments in the past few days via email about how people are enjoying the blog :) thank you for saying so and don't be shy to let me know you're reading. I love knowing that people enjoy hearing about AK's adventures.

Now Mommy is off on an adventure today - to NYC for the weekend - hope AK has a great time with her Daddy! xo
