My cousin Sariah had her mission homecoming talk and party after, where I saw Grandma Yearsley for the first time in a LONG time. She had our Christmas presents so I saved them to open for family night. Indie got a book (one of her great loves), and Nora got a stuffed bear but only cared about the tag (one of her great loves right now). So funny how much this girl is into tags.
We finally got some warm(ish) sunny weather when we had some free time, so we got out to enjoy the rays. Poor Nora is still not completely sitting steadily and tipped over on the concrete. She actually barely bumped in but got this scrape. It didn't phase her but I felt so badly.
Nora LOVES baths. It appears she has about outgrown her little tub.
Our basement is unfinished and just storage right now, but I would like to clear up at least half to keep large toys and have an area we can run around in bad weather. Indie and I went down to clean up and of course she found some tampons. Not sure why, but she has always loved playing with them.
I try to get a few minutes one-on-one with each girl while the other is napping (on my days off). These moments are so special for me, and I hope for them as well.
We had a big step this week. Indie got a big girl bed (and room). I found this floor bed idea on Pinterest a while ago so Adam built it, but we've been waiting for a good time to move it in and shop for bedding, decor, etc. She had a "sleepy party" at Grammie's house so we had some time to move it in and shop till we dropped for accessories. Because of my picky style and frugal mentality, this is as far as we got. We were nervous to see what she thought and how she would do. When we showed her, she was thrown off because she and Nora switched rooms, but immediately climbed on the bed. She hadn't had a nap today, thus very tired, but she went to bed easily and barely moved until 7:30 AM! We will see how she does when she's not so tired. Nora has been sleeping in a Pack N Play until we got the bed situation settled, so she is finally in an actual crib. She also did wonderfully in her new bed/room.
Grammie and Indie watched Aristocats and for some reason Indie picked up a certain "walk like geese". She swings her hips and moves her arms side to side with her hands flexed out. Everyone laughs when she does it.
