On the mend

judecorpPunk is still recovering, but was fever-free again today so off she went to day care. K says she had a good day and I got to pick her up today which is always fun because she is so excited to see me. She also slept on a cot on the floor like the big kids for the first time today. Woah!
She started yawning in the car about 5 minutes from home but continued to play normally, eat normally, etc. I started clean up and bedtime about 15 minutes early because of the yawning and because she pooped. I got into the rocker with her for our nightly hugs and after less than one minute, she kicked me out of her room! She said, "bye-bye, mama" and when I asked her if she wanted to go into the crib right then, she said "yes!" I put her down, she said "bye-bye" again, and I haven't heard a peep from her since!
I can't believe she kicked me out before we could get our full 5 minutes of cuddles! I need my cuddles!

I still feel like I am living a dream now that I have one of those kids you just lay in the crib and walk out the door. It's like night and day and it still seems so surreal, or like a fluke, even though it's been a couple of weeks now. It is the most awesome thing ever and I wish I could bottle it up and send it to everyone who's having a tough time getting their kids to sleep.

She continues to add tons and tons of words to her vocabulary. Some of my recent favorites include: moustache, pretzel, poop, potty, parts (as in, Mr. Potato Head parts, of course), fast, police, fire hat, slippers, animals, Daedalus, Fin, Ralphie, and octopus. She also now will tell you all about: Big Bird, Ernie, Bert, Cookie, Elmo, Zoe, and Grover, as well as Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and Goofy. Oh, and George and Hat (Curious George and the Man with the Yellow Hat). And Super Why and (Alpha) Pig. (Can you tell we've been watching a little TV?)
