Time Waster

This has been occupying all of my free time the last couple of days.

Change in routine...

We are all doing well and finally healthy again (knock on wood)! Addison has really take off with her crawling and now when she pulls herself up (which is constantly) she will just let go and stand there waving her arms. We don't think that she realizes that she is standing all by herself. She is climbing on to anything short enough to push her way into. She loves the cabinet in her bedroom for that. She is still sporting only 2 teeth, but major crabbiness and even more drool have moved in. So maybe she will break a few more soon.

Payton went to the dentist this week. She had already gone before, this was just a 6 month cleaning. She is SO into scrubbing her little teeth. She is getting really good at it. She spits it well, we just have to get her to figure out how to rinse now! That has turned out to be tricky. So now she has a new toothbrush from the dentist and wants to brush even more. Good going girl!

We are slowly trying to introduce the idea that she doesn't need to suck her thumb any more. She will ask, "can I suck my thumb Mumma?" We have promised her ear piercing if she quits. But she has these stick on earrings that make that one not as appealing to her. She has been BEGGING for me to paint her fingernails. We told her not until no more thumb. That may be the thing that will eventually does it. She will come up to us and say "see I am not sucking any more... can I have some polish?" She is so cute. I have been trying to paint my nails more lately so she will get envious!

Next week I am changing my work schedule temporarily to help our department while we train a new employee in. So I am going to be adding some half days. Hopefully the girls do okay with it. I told work that I am willing to do it for now, but I have to get to daycare by noon or so. Payton's class starts getting ready for nap then. If I don't get there in time she will have to wait in the office for me. She will think she is in trouble!!! Addie really has no schedule in the room she is in. She just makes her own schedule. In June she will move up to the toddler room! I can't believe our girl is going to graduate the baby room! Time is really flying by!!!!
