Roar!




Alette is in the middle of a dinosaur craze. We've been reading books, drawing pictures, and play-acting dinosaurs. Imagine her delight when our playgroup visited a new playground and discovered it had a dinosaur climby-thingee (sorry for the technical language). This new playground was a delight! Lots of slides, climbing equipment, swings, and a sandbox filled with toys (clearly we were not in Camden as sadly, all the toys would have been stolen).
Abria's becoming increasingly independent. She is now able to open the fridge door, the basement door, and is working hard to figure out the oven door. We always seem to be one step behind in baby-proofing the house. She has also discovered that the drawer below the oven, and the cupboard below the microwave contain all sorts of interesting pots, pans, baking sheets, and utensils. To her delight, all the afore mentioned objects make really, really loud noises when banged on the floor or on a cupboard. One thing I do appreciate is her newly acquired ability to get her own drink of water from the bathroom sink. With only a minimal amount of spillage, she is able to turn on the water, fill a cup, and take a drink. I am actually looking forward to potty-training....
