Water Anyone?

Here is a funny little video of the Bugaboo.

I walked into the kitchen one day and saw her scaling the fridge to get a drink of water. She can reach high enough to get the water but climbs to switch from ice to water.

Unfortunately she still had her cast on in this video, which made climbing a little tough so you don't get the full effect & she figures out she's just about tall enough to reach the buttons. Nonetheless it's adorable.

p.s. Sorry that the video is on it's side. I forget that just because I have the camera on a vertical view doesn't mean the video will be in a vertical view. Duh!

Preschool Work

Here's a little sampling of what the Bugaboo has brought home from preschool. I love seeing her learning to write. Every now and then when she sees a letter that strikes her fancy she'll ask, with urgency, for a paper and pencil so she can practice writing that letter. It's as if she thinks, "I have to write this down before I forget what I saw!"

Tracing and writing mom & dad.

Picture depicting her house.

I can't remember what she told me about the pictures she drew. She's in bed now so I'll post her description later.

Happy Halloween!

Mommy Daughter Date

M-Bug and I had a few days to ourselves this last week and decided to take advantage of it. With the big girls at school and the boys out of town we planned a mommy/daughter date.

On the menu:

To the Mall!

Old Navy for a new winter coat

Buy a gumball from the gumball machine

Ride the carousel

Play at the playground

Eat lunch at Chik-fil-a

Of course we had to take pics of ourselves after we got all gussied up to go out.

(Notice the object sticking out of M-Bug's cast. This is how she carries her lip gloss....everywhere!)

The Old Navy dog!!!!

I have been telling M-Bug we would ride the carousel since before we brought her home. We finally made it! She loved it. I love the smug little looks on her face in these two pictures.

At Chik-fil-a. This is an attempt to get a picture of her cute hair. On our way in she told me she thought people were going to tell her they thought her hair was cute. She was a little surprised that no one had said anything. I mean look at that hair. Who could resist commenting on it?! Apparently everyone in Chik-fil-a that day!

Mmmmm......Icedream!
