Feet

Esmé was "helping" me bake when she dumped the baking powder all over the ground as well as the chair she was standing on. I had a moment of frustration and began to clean it up when I noticed the tiny feet. Amazing how quickly the frustration can melt away.

Nunnery Application In Progress

Esmé likes to pretend to read and pretend to say letters when she sees them on signs or in books. She says letters in random order but when I ask her, she can tell me what some letters are, like A, B, and M. (We were working on C but she has trouble saying the "s" sound and M stands for moon which gets her really excited, so A, B, M it is.)

Today she was looking at the computer keys and among her babbling started saying the letters, "B... O... Y." Then she repeated it over and over, "B...O...Y, B...O...Y."

Noooo! This is too soon! I can't take it!

N..O, N..O, N..O!

Latest Obsession

Esmé found my old glasses and decided they are the coolest thing. I popped the lenses out and now she wears them all the time. She puts them on first thing in the morning, wears them while she's playing or eating or when we go out, and even wears them to bed.

We figure it's good training for when she inherits her parents' bad eyesight and has to wear them for real.
