Rock Star

Singing Along with Rock Band
How do you keep a baby busy who has to sit all day? Get out some plastic guitars and a fake drum set and put Baby on vocals.
The picture is of her doing her version of Yellow Submarine. Did the Beatles ever fuss when people weren’t watching? Hmm…
We’ve been doing good, just a slight cold running through the house. It’s decided to live forever in my face without getting better or worse. Nice. Does this get me out of reading? No. I still am required to read until my sore throat gives out and I start a coughing fit, and even then the little girl is pretty demanding about more stories.
On a totally random tangent, I found I have an aversion to people saying they should “count their blessings” after seeing my kid (or a picture of my kid). Not cool. I don’t look at a picture of them and say, “Wow, thank the good Lord I’m blessed with the face I have; it could be a lot worse.” Rude. I know it’s suppose to be a positive thing–thanking God for your working body parts and all, but think before you speak/post/comment/blog. Seriously.
Okay tangent over.
Laelia went to school today and once again I am impressed with how her language is developing. We had Subway for dinner and at one point she leaned over and said, “ah aha ah AH AH AH AH!!” like a baby bird who will drop dead without a bite of food. So I said, “Say ‘Sandwich please!’ and I’ll consider it.” So Lali responded, “Sa-wash peees!”
Oh gosh, she sure doesn’t like mustard. You should have seen her face! Ha!
