Keeping Busy

Aislin sure is keeping us on our toes! More teeth are peeking through so that has meant many sleepless nights for me. The other night she was just not going to sleep, she woke up at 10pm and it was 2am...so I put her in the car thinking a drive might help...luckily Tim Horton's drive thru was open because I really needed a coffee. The man working there said, why do you look so tired and she looks so wide awake, I just smiled and paid him for my fully caffienated coffee... So as we are driving down the road, someone pulls out and almost cuts me off...it really scared me and I beeped my horn and said "Jesus", little Miss No Words then says...Jesus...note to self, watch my words! She's really picking up words and mimics everything I do. She's really quite a character who loves to laugh and play jokes, she'll take a blueberry to put it in your mouth because she's going to share, and at the last second she'll pull it away from your lips put it in her own mouth and laugh!

She's also getting a real personality of her own and making sure we understand her needs and wants. For example, the other day I was giving her some juice...she didn't want it but I felt she didn't have enough liquids that day so she looked at me, took the cup, took a drink and then walked over to the garbage can and threw the cup in! Enough said!


Next week will be her first "Just for Tots" class. It's a morning session at the YMCA for toddlers and I bring her there and leave...hmmm...the whole point is to get her used to being without me a little bit and to socialize with other children but inside I am so anxious. She's going to be fine, it's me I'm worried about! Ha!


Anyway, life here is still great and every day our little girl continues to amaze us! I'm not sure the dogs are too happy with her right now, she's begun to point her finger at them and yell gibberish when they start to bark at nothing! It's quite cute.
