First Piano Lessons

Mr. Holt came by for my kid’s first-ever piano lessons.
It was kind of an exciting day for me.
I peeked around the corner to see how it was going.

Scout seemed really interested and did a really nice job paying attention.

Navy seemed to be listening a bit, all while interjecting her own stories.

We concluded that Scout was ready and willing, and that Navy was going to have to wait a year.

Pajama Day

I always get excited when it is a dress-up day at school.
And Pajama/Bring-Your-Stuffed-Animal-Day is no exception.
So I pulled out her size 3 french pajamas that I love the best, and we got her “Sheepy” and she was set.
Clearly she was excited.
And just to make sure I still have those pajamas when Pippi is five years old, I told her to always sit on Sheepy when she has to sit in “line-up” on the black asphalt.
And I report….those things came back in almost perfect condition!

One Year Old Present

What do you get a one year old who has everything?
I wasn’t sure, until I was walking down Costco Lane and heard Pippi panting like a dog.
When I looked over to see what she saw, there was a rack of furry animal blanket/pillow sets.
And when I saw the price tag — $10.99…I didn’t resist.

When I put it in the cart, Pippi put her head on it over and over and over.
I tested her once, and put the grey bunny in, and she tossed it out.
And then I tested her with putting it back on the shelf and strolling away, and she yelled at the top of her lungs to let me know she didn’t accept the crazy move.
So the yellow duck it is for this little almost-one year old!
