We went out for Tony's 40th birthday tonight at the Keg, so K thought she would get dressed up in her new party shoes. When we got home, she did some tap dancing in the kitchen! I've tried 3 times to upload that video, but it won't work...maybe tomorrow I can try again...sorry!
She got two new molars last week. One night she woke up around midnight and stayed up until 3 am. She wiggled off my lap and made it down the stairs. She really wanted to play with her toys. I took a video of her doing some dancing and playing. The video is a little dark because I didn't want to turn all the lights on...also, it is a little long...I was not thinking straight so I just kept recording!
K has learned some new and useful words...like "no" and "up" and "more". She pouts her lips together in a 'kissy face' to represent please, and thank you is usually one nod, although she is saying the words more and more. She loves to say "there you go" when she hands you something or when she wants something to be handed to her. Whenever she hears the dog across the street bark she goes crazy and runs to the window and barks like a puppy. Often in the morning we hear her barking in her crib...she continues to do this until we go and get her. I think she thinks she is a puppy....hmmm. K tried crepes the other day for the first time and LOVED them! Ahhh....she is a frenchie after all! She is a great eater. She will eat anything, except potatoes. She really likes peas and green beans, but her favourite food item, is pancakes. Speaking of food, I decided I was going to do a diet. I have never done one before, so I was curious to see if I had the ability and determination to stick to one. Do you think I could stick with it? Ya right...I'm a French Mennonite....food is sooooo important to me. I was reading a new Rachael Ray cook book while eating only fruit and cabbage soup for a day. Today was day two...only veggies and cabbage soup. Tonight at the keg I gave in and had braised short ribs in a mushrooms sauce with mashed garlic potatoes. I was about to order a HUGE chocolate dessert, when Kalea saved me from myself and began to cry. We packed up and headed home! What was I thinking? I am NEVER going on a diet again...all I really wanted to loose was three pounds....it was not worth it! I would rather gain three than eat fruit, veggies and cabbage soup all day! Nothing is wrong with fruit, veggies and soup...but you have to add other things in too...something to sauce things up a little, you know?! Well, that is it for my random talk for tonight,
Good night, all!
Love,
