UP with the roosters!

Well not really, but something made me wake with a start at 5am... I think I dozed off half an hour later but found someone trying to crawl into bed with me at 6am. AK is too thoughtful - she'll put my glasses right next to me. What will she do if I ever get laser eye surgery and I don't need glasses anymore?

Speaking of laser eye surgery, if anyone has any experiences to share, please do. I'm at the point where I want to start researching and I have no idea where to start. Do I start with my optometrist? Google?

I have a bit of a scratch between my eyes right now. AK saw it this morning and we had the following conversation:
AK: What's that, Mommy? (pointing at my face)
Me: Well, that's a scratch, Mommy has a little boo-boo
AK: Oh, Mommy has a boo-boo (sad face)
Me: Do you want to kiss it better?
AK Yes! (happy face) *kisses it better*

She loves getting up on her stepstool to help me make my morning smoothie. She knows which button she pushes to start the blender, then she hurls herself into my arms to get away from the noise. She also turns it off for me, and helps me pour it into a glass. I've still not had any luck getting her to drink any!

When I was ready to have a shower, I told AK so and she said "OK Mommy". I left her sitting on the couch and expected that she'd just watch some cartoons while I showered. Not so much. While I was in the shower today, AK:
1. got into the fridge by herself for the first time and helped herself to a second yogurt drink for breakfast, and
2. came into my bathroom and got on the toilet by herself. I had a bit of a surprise when I pulled back the shower curtain and there she was, with the biggest grin ever on her face!

AK is very excited that we are getting on an airplane tomorrow to go to Anna's house. She knows that she'll be playing with Sofia this weekend. She has a hard time saying "Sofia" so sometimes she says "that girl". Ha ha!
