This was a super busy week for Miss Meghan. She was sick with a good upper respiratory/chest cold for quite a bit of the week. However she was also so sweet and learning so quickly! Check it out!!
Meghan loves playing with her bracelets by the front door. She puts them on, takes them off, lines them up against the door, and generally just has fun!!
I brought up a chair for her table and she LOVED sitting in it. She likes playing at the table while sitting in her chair. She can get into the chair all by herself but cannot get back down alone. She will sit and say all done while signing please to get down!
She has been getting very good at independent play! She has been concentrating on tasks for longer periods of time and really trying to figure things out. These are two things she built in the early week with her Mega Bloks.
She continues to love dogs. In this picture you can see her lips saying "oof" while she was playing with the dog.
She tried banana again this week....and still isn't sure that she likes it.
This night was so cute....she and Daddy were both working hard on tasks at her table. With some intermittent peek-a-booing. She is WAY into peek-a-boo these days! She is starting to cover her own face and say "boo!"
She enjoyed crawling around for about 30 minutes beating a plate with a spoon. She makes a wonderful one-woman band.
Her band took her behind the couch and she was so proud of herself and her "hiding place."
Imaginative play EXPLODED in the last week! She spends so much time pretending to cook. She puts food in pots and pans, mixes, and then brings food to us with a spoon - she extends it to us while saying "mmmmm" until we try whatever she has cooked.
She found her belly button this week!
We went to a garage sale this week where we found this awesome gear toy. Meghan figured out how to make the gears move, to take them off, and put them back on. Way to go motor skills!
Meghan can eat popcorn without needing us to bite it for her first - she loved sticking her whole hand into the bowl and shoving mouthfuls in just like she see's Daddy do. Her love of "papa" is so cute!!
I love those curls! And love that this girl knows we just pick things in the garden and eat them....she loved several snap peas on Saturday!
More cooking pictures - apparently this required two spoons! (AND LOOK AT THOSE CURLS! Sweat and humidity really bring them out!!)
Playing peek-a-boo with her pot.
Love this cooked, scrunch-nosed smile!
Playing peek-a-boo with Daddy.
She has started pretending to answer phone calls and hand the phone off to other people; apparently this phone call was for Dad!
Her "mommy" play has also been amazing! She carries baby around, puts baby under blankets, feeds baby with a spoon (despite the fact that she doesn't like to be fed off of a spoon), kisses and hugs baby, sings to baby, and has started giving baby bottles. Every time we see a baby she shouts "BABY" and points. Hopefully she will continue to love babies this much when her brother or sister gets here!
Today she "cooked" three chocolate cupcakes - she's a girl after my own heart!!
I feel like this little girl is just growing up so fast - especially in her play. It's so fun to watch her learn, explore, and imagine. We're just so proud of her!!
