Has it been a crazy month here in this cat’s hat!
Life with the Things has been–interesting. Thing 1 got Pinocchio from the Queen Mom and has watched it about 10,000 times. So far she’s picked up her colors, can count to eight in one-to-one correspondence and can identify two letters of the alphabet–Q and Z, or as she calls it, “zebra.”
Thing 2 wants to crawl, and is this close to crawling backwards. She’s also making a few “baby noises.” A part of me just wants her to stay this age–tiny, cute, toothless, and in love with Mommy!
We had a babysitter for a while, but she was pretty worthless. She came, and she sat. I had to push her to engage my kids. Of course, this is really fun while I’m trying to clean for Pesach.
Also, like everyone else, I am following the recovery plan with some interest. The stimulus knocked $1,200 off our tax bill this year. Yay for President Obama!
