Happy Monday

We had a warm streak over the weekend and while we were running errands on Saturday the bank clock showed 50 degrees. It was fantastic and will help us get through until Thursday when the warm-up is supposed to come back again. Liza loves using her walker every day. Now she knows when she is about to run into something, we call them road hazards, because she looks up at whichever one of us is behind her waiting for us to steer her back onto an unobstructed path. She is also smart enough to know that if Kuma is in her way she can just plow right into him and he'll move on his own without assistance from us.

Liza is trying her best to make the two pieces fit into a ball. She knows they do because we do it for her and then she hands them back and helps pull them apart. She got so frustrated she couldn't make it work.


She left the source of her frustration and moved on to other more mentally stimulating and challenging toys - socks! How is it that we have great toys for her to play with and she wants to pull the singleton socks off the table?


Would you look at that, she found the one sock on the table that was hers! I wonder if she's asking why it isn't up in her room where it is supposed to be?


While I'm gathering last minute needed supplies for the day Liza likes to play on the bottom stair and wait. Sometimes she sits there and swings her feet out but today she was reclining and enjoying herself.


PS: Yes, I'm still trying to put bows in her hair. I know it's futile but I can't stop. When Liza finds bows in our house she tries to put them in her own hair - so cute!
