Amy is turning into a real little entertainer, she keeps me giggling all day.
We were in the supermarket and she was pointing at Nathan singing,
‘Dad-DEEEEE Dad-DEEEEEE’
‘Yup, that’s your Daddy’
Amy shook her head.
‘No? That isn’t your Daddy?’
Amy nodded.
‘Yes? It is your Daddy?’
Amy shook her head.
I think she just likes being difficult.
She has also learnt to climb onto the arms of the couch (yes she is a climber. Her favourite spot at the moment is the windowsill. I have bad photos, I will post them another day) and straddle them, while slapping her hands on the wall. I am worried for her teenage years.
She dances by wiggling her bum, bouncing up and down and bobbing her head.
She sings while she dances.
Everything is a dog. Unless it is a cat.
The cows from the farm down the road got out and Amy could see them on the road (100m away ish).
‘Dooooooo ag’ (dog)
‘No sweetheart they are cows. Cows say mooooo.’
‘No! Doooooo ag’
‘Cows’
‘No! Doooo ag’
She also insists that the horses are dogs, at least until we get close enough so she can see how big they are. She quite likes the horses actually, one snuffled her tummy the other day and she cracked up, thought it was the funniest thing! She won’t try and say horse though, and insists that they are ‘doooo ags’ when they are in the distance.
The cat is her best friend and she tries to pick her up and carry her around. Good thing the cat is so placid, or I am sure we would have scratches on our hands.
She pulls clothes out of her drawers and brings them over to Nathan and I and insists that we dress her in them. The other day, she ran around the house wearing a winter hat all day. It was 30C.
She is definately growing up too fast. Can’t I just freeze her this age forever?
PS:
As you read this, I am out shopping, minus a Toddler. Not only that, but I am clothes shopping for myself! It will be the first time I have tried on and bought clothes in probably 3 years. Wish me luck! Also, wish Nathan luck because he will have Amy all by himself and she hasn’t taken a nap for him in a long long time. There is always the pram and a big walk if everything else fails.

have fun! there are bargains everywhere! I just went on my lunchbreak and got 2 tops for $5.00 each!
Tanya’s last blog post..THURSDAY THIRTEEN
It sounds like your child is starting to comprehend the world around her. Soon enough she will be singing her favorite song in the shower or have a list of her favorite foods to eat. It is nice to find a mother that takes the time to post daily tidbits about personal experiences with raising a child. I hope to maintain my own blog in the near future when I start to raise a family of my own.
I am a representative of New York Kids Club in the Manhattan and Brooklyn Heights area and aim to spread the word the great child development programs offered for younger children your daughter’s age. We have activities that range from fitness, to music, and even cooking classes. Parents benefit from the few hours they get to themselves (naps, exercise, work) and also develop other parents in the area. Let me know if you have any questions I could answer.
Once I saw that you were out shopping- for clothes- all by yourself- I forgot everything else I had just read.

I’m cracking up at the comment up there. Apparently “katie” doesn’t read your blog regularly, or she would know what a commute it would be to join her at the New York Kids Club. Dare you to ask her if she’s paying for airfare! I’ll meet you there! 🙂
I also forgot everything else, except DOG, when I saw that you went clothes shopping by yourself. DO tell what that was like!!
What does she call the creepy looking lizard?

Anyway, hope you got some great bargins and that you enjoyed your freedom.

kim’s last blog post..Update.. Help ‘B’ Get to Japan..
Heh….Bad climbed up on the arm of the chair the other day, and right on to the table. I looked up from my book and there he was, standing on the table, proud as could be. Hmmm….maybe I should pay closer attention to what my children are doing and not let them run crazy around me while I try to catch up on my reading?

I agree with Courtney and Kim, who is this katie person and why doesn’t she at least read a little of your blog before posting and ad?
Hope you had a great time shopping!
missburrows’s last blog post..Get bowled over.
I used to drive slowly and take the really long way home from the grocery store when my husband was watching the kids. Anything to have a couple minutes to myself…
I also tagged you with a meme. Sorry. If you don’t want to do it, feel free to “forget” about it…Tasina tagged me a week or two ago and I just got around to it, and I am still negligent on one that Heaven in Belgium tagged me with…

Hey Von just to let everybody know that we had a great time shopping, we left home at 10.15 am and got back at 7pm but of course that allows for about 45 minutes travel each way, don’t know about you but I had a great time,I am sure you did too, the old grandma is still not too old to shop till she drops he he
very funny and too cute … I want some pictures.
I forgot to write about dawg … everything here is a dog especially birds.
The dancing too – I can just imagine Amy bopping with S & J – they dance exactly the same way.
