It’s been too long and I’m sincerely sorry! I have two stories for you that will hopefully redeem me. One we are actually trying to get “on tape.”
They sing the ABC song in her class at daycare – she’s one of the younger ones in the class but the teacher says she tries valiantly to sing along. This came up because, one day, she started singing and it sounded kinda like the ABC song so we asked. Here is a rough version of, well, Taylor’s version:
..something that sounds kinda like “A B C D yayayaya…. P …la la la la..” Do the “la la” a little bit longer and then it’s followed with, “Yay!” and she claps. 🙂
The second story happened this morning as I was trying to get her out of bed. She stretches and kind of wakes up and I pick her up and move her to the changing table. This morning, she promptly rolled over onto her stomach and stuck her little bottom in the air and proceeded to go back to sleep. I rubbed her back and said, “Taylor.. time to get up…” She responded, “No mama! Night night.” and turned her head away from me. Needless to say this morning was a little difficult. There were moments of laughter as I tickled her to try to get her to wake up. Then, as I tried to undress and dress her, the laughter was followed with fussing ranging from crying to grunts/screeches that would’ve included a foot stomp had she been standing.
…. but she’s not 2 yet!!! Oh well, we’re still enjoying it and even though prolonged bouts get annoying, they’re still kinda cute.. in a weird way. 🙂
