60 to 0 in an amazingly short time
Alicia had quite a full day yesterday.
Church in the morning, followed by lunch with my Mom, Dad and sister at the Mugg & Bean (she squeezed a 20 min snooze in here at some point). Straight home to play in the sprinkler. Soon after that Marla’s mom arrived and all the excitement that entailed. Supper time, and then she was left alone at home with me when everyone else went to the hospital to visit Marla’s Gran, who is recovering from surgery.
So the two of us were bumbling around at home and Lili found the swimmer nappy (the pull up kind) that, although worn, was still usable. It hardly got wet in the sprinkler and she had not ‘used’ it either.
She was trying to put it on. this is a fairly amusing to observe as more often than not she would get both legs into the same hole and that would frustrate her and she would shout at the nappy, until she pulled it off and tried again. And in between that she would decide it was a hat and try to get it onto her head.
Well eventually she got it on (as far has her knees) and with no small sense of accomplishment lay back on the floor to watch whatever it was I had on the TV.
This is when the amazing deceleration occurred, from shouting at the nappy one min to this the next…
And I somehow managed to get her from there into her PJ’s, nappy changed, in the sleeping bag and into bed without waking her up.
I don’t like nuts. They have a weird texture. Ok peanuts and raisins can be a bit addictive, but the raisins make the whole thing better. But I digress. I don’t like nuts, I pick them out of my cereal. I leave the nuts on the counter in the kitchen for the nutty people in the house.
