Involves half an hour of me blogging while the baby settles down in the next room and my friends game without me.

Quite often, it involves the little girl deciding not to go to bed, with vehement cries of, "I not! I not!" This sometimes (as tonight) involves her throwing up her last meal all over her bedraggled and bedamned carpet.

Tonight it was, "I a bunny, I not go to bed!" My two-year-old was quoting one of her favourite books - Mercer Meyer's "Just Go To Bed", one of the litter critter books. At the end, Critter is in his bunny pajamas. He says, "I'm a bunny, and bunnies don't sleep in beds!"

I can't believe my two-year-old quotes books in context. That's phenomenal. Though I suppose no moreso than her running around on a foam alphabet map, singing the alphabet song at the top of her lungs. "Won' you come an' sing WITH MEEEE!!!"

Even when she's making life more difficult, she's still making it more interesting. I wish I could write a developmental linguistics thesis using my daughter as my only subject. She's fascinating.

Okay, no sounds from toddlerland right now, so I'm going back to the game. With any luck, she'll sleep in a bit tomorrow.

Ha! When has she ever done that?

hope she does sleep in

She slept in until eight-thirty, and I delivered a whole bunch of damage to a spider with a leg spread of forty feet and a height of ten feet, while avoiding getting killed by said spider. Velvet is really good at jumping into shadows, and it saved her butt. So it was a good night. :)
