I'm still getting over the fact that my baby is no longer a baby...*sniff*
Some new development for her:
She now has 2 3/4 teeth....the two top ones are poking through in various stages
She's interested in books now -- probably because there's story time in her new class.
She'll be perfectly content to sit in her book corner and go through the books that are there and babbling to herself. The books are sometimes upside down.
And sometimes on her head.
Note: Book corner is a highly affectionate description. A more realistic one would be "stack of books dumped into the corner". See for youself (but don't judge)
I've been feverishly buying books from yard sales, library sales and Amazon.com to stock up her library. I hope that she'll grow up to have a love of reading and to experience all the wonderful worlds and far-reaching places that exist in books
She's getting into closets and cupboards now.

Why are kids blessed with the ability to create a full-fledged in the blink of an eye?
She got introduced to the toothbrush at the dawn of the new year. She LOVES it. Daddy showed her how to brush at first
She's definitely gotten the hang of it. The effectiveness of the brushing is yet to be determined though.
She finds great pleasure in "cleaning up".
Putting things "away" (not necessarily the right place for that item, but it's all nicely contained), stacking things. Still afraid of the vacumm cleaner though.

She's getting into the "pretend" play, I think. I showed her how to pretend to cook using a plastic bowl and her spoon, occasionally shaking a spice container to "season", and she got right into it.
We'll be playing masak-masak before you know it!
She also likes to pretend-eat my camera lens cover
She still points at what she can't reach. Again, her aiming is still all over the place, but she's started to vehemently shake her head "no" if I pick the wrong thing.
She loves the big ball that we just bought her. Apparently that was the only item she pointed at in the store. And when we worked at getting it out of the pit, she started chanting "ball-ball".
I did not teach her that word. Maybe she picked it up at daycare? Although the tendency to repeat a word to describe an object was something I thought only the Chinese did.
She still loves her chairs...This is her rocking chair. And she seems to be part monkey.
Phew...that was a lot of work!
She recently started to bawl when I leave her at daycare.
She likes to be all grown-up like us and drink out of a glass
She still loves her fridge toys
They act like her on-demand radio
And she looks all toddler-y now. *sigh*

I will never get why women bawl at the thought of their kids growing up. Maybe I will too when the time comes, and I'll understand. /shrug
She seems to be developing a rash or something around her mouth, is that due to the dry weather?
old pics -- but she has her daddy's skin = dry, eczema
because the older they get, the more innocence they lose. Most precious during these first few years. After that, the "awwww" feeling will be less and less frequent, I think.
