Monday Musings



It's just about 12:30 here on the North Shore of Long Island and a lot has gone on in our little lives. Being home with my daughter over the summer has been AMAZING! I do not usually do the all caps, but it has been! She is the best. On nice days, we walk down to the sprinkler park, enjoy the sprinklers for about a half an hour and walk home. She has four bathing suits, which is absolutely ridiculous for an 11 month old. I had no control; they were so cute and inexpensive. Today, she wore my favorite yellow polka-dot suit.

Right now, she is eating a Baby Mum Mum cracker and watching Kai Lan (so irritating). I find about 90% of the current shows for children to be annoying, especially Dora the Explorer. I don't know what it is about that kid, but she really gets under my skin! They made a teenage version of her in a longer "movie" last night. She and her friends lost their tickets to the Shakira concert and because they were such nice girls, Shakira gave them a ride and a shout-out. That's basically the gist of the whole thing. They tried to teach that if you do good things for others, Shakira will recognize your efforts - - - oh yeah, and buying tickets to Shakira concerts helps the singer build schools for the less fortunate.

Moose and Zee, the "lesson planners" on Nick Jr. are pretty cute. My little lady loves when they come on. She is a huge Backyardigans fan. In fact, we're going to have a Backyardigans motif for her first birthday! My life has become consumed by the things my little lady loves, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Until next time!
