She thinks the 80’s rocked . Oh and blue cheese too…….

I put blogging aside for this past couple of weeks. It’s been a very relaxing and fun time we had together.
The holidays have come and gone. Baby bug’s birthday came out of nowhere. My vacation has almost run out of time and my to do list seems to be where I started it two weeks ago.
Our trip to Portland got cancelled (no, we cancelled it due to “extreme” conditions) and we had to deal with sunshine and weather that pretty much stayed in the high 50’s low 60’s. Once I even had to put my heavy sweatshirt on. Not to mention the (well deserved and needed) rain that poured down on us for almost three days. Not three simultaneous days, but three days nevertheless.
Baby bug went from being a toddler to being a two year old. The difference is entitlement and ownership.
Let me tell ya! What’s yours is mine and what’s mine is mine!
At this point in her life I think she has come to a turning point. She committed her life to learning and helping others , achieved a lot and it is time to enjoy the fruit of these two very busy years. Work hard, play hard! She is one true Californian.
She also enjoyed her time away from daycare but she told me the other night that she missed her friends.
This past two weeks she discovered that she is two (after consistently telling everyone she was “sickteen”) and just recently had her “bitday”. She discovered that she loves wearing leg warmers either on her hands or on her legs, depending on what day it is. She also discovered that blue cheese rocks and that juice mixed with water is mostly water. Really not caring for the latter. She discovered you tube while sitting on daddy dada’s lap and really got familiar with the computer while we weren‘t watching. She discovered that she knows how to turn dada’s car on and that making funny faces and giving hugs will take the edge off of any uncomfortable situation. (Hint: getting in trouble while turning dada‘s car on.)
She discovered that she can make fun of things and pretend to be someone else and invite daddy dada to join the pretend play.
She discovered that doing crafty things is fun (even when it does not involve any of the walls) and that giving is great but getting is better.
So, I think we have started the New Year the right way and she is on a search to know herself and the world around her.
