Mmm bread

Lumpy and I went for arvo tea picnic and play at the park. I made a loaf of bread.
I cut and vegemite'd 2 slices... I looked up and lumps has a mouth FULL of bread...
She had started eating through from the other side!!!

We also found a feather which I explained was from a bird, so the feather was now called bird!

While Mumma is busy, I will nibble

Just Laxing

Bird, bird, bird.

Mumma working the weekend :(

Well, I guess one of the "joys" of being a nurse is working weekends, early starts and not much time with th elittle one. Meaning Lumpy and daddy time! Lumpy certainly started the day off bright and early (bless her!) At 510ish she walked from her room to ours and hopped in bed with daddy, along with BYO linen...

After work, and when Lumpy FINALLY woke up, I needed something indoors but fun to do with her (she had spent a lot of time outdoors with daddy while he helped turf a relative's yard). So what else do you do when you want to kick up shaving foam a notch?? you add food dye. (Though daddy wasn't too happy when some pink food dye and foam got the lounge wall... How else are kids meant to learn and explore?!?).

I truly love nothing more than watching the expressions of her face when she does something for the first time OR when she does something again that she loves.

hmmm, you can see someone is a little sick still :(

Really need to mix these colours through!

 We ended up taking the container and coloured foam up to the bath tub and played for a while longer, She was then incredibly fascinated by the colour the water went (an idea for next mummy- little plastic containers water and food dye!).

Sick mumma.

I have been sick the last 2 weeks with sinus infection. Coming up with ways to entertain a very active 19 month old can get very tricky when I just want to sit (yes I know mums CAN NOT be sick!). I did still send her to day care yesterday while iI rested and saw the GP again.
After day care I decided to go and enquire about swimming lessons, our local pool offers them. Near the local pool is a nice park so we walked there (I got in trouble from Lumpy for walking past the car "Mumma Mumma car, Mummmmmmmmma car" until she saw the play equipment :) ).
She was happy to let me sit in the shade while she played on the equipment. I am always amazed at her lack of fear and determination. There was a metal chain ladder to get to the slide, she managed to get to the top before requesting my assistance.

She had just watched some older children laying on their tummy swinging, so of course she attempted it herself.

Trying to decide which way to slide.

 

Finally figured it out xx.

Feeling so much better today, If it's warm and not windy I will most likely do a yard picnic and shaving foam and food dye.
