Yesterday I had a church meeting, Abygail got to play with lots of other kids while we were there. She had such a good time. Jackson was really good as well. I was very proud of them, except for the part where Abygail went exploring in Alaska's hidden pantry...and STOLE a bag of pretzels. Silly me thought, 'I'll just take this away from her'. When I tried taking it away the bag riped open, my daughter is VERY strong. It was a small snack size bag so I just made sure it was ok for her to have it...what more could I do, the harm was already caused...she REALLY enjoyed them.
We also went to Babies R Us, as we passed all the rocking chairs she screamed out 'chairs', then I pointed out the beds (in hopes that she will realize that our bed is not her bed) and she screamed 'bed'. We went to the small toy section and we got her some crayons and a giant coloring book...which she has really enjoyed. As we were checking out with our purchases Jackson started to cry a little and she turned around (he was in his carrier in the basket and she was in the seat) and said 'don't cry' and 'it's ok'. How cute! She has really been learning words so well, Jason and I can hardly believe it.
She also liked screaming out 'look!' and 'how fun!', 'how cool' or 'oh, wow!'.
On our way home I made the mistake of giving her one of the markers we bought, which is shaped for little hands. She thought it tasted so good! Good thing they are non toxic, hahaha. Since it is washable I decided to just leave her face covered in green until we went to pick Daddy up so that he could have a good laugh. I wish I had taken a picture of 'my little frog'.
