Little Things

Funny face.
I snuck a pony tail on top of her head. It isn't pretty, but it actually lasted through a trip to the grocery store and some playing time...about two hours. I didn't think it would last five minutes!

Cora shoving a handful of bananas into her mouth.
Cora's favorite reading spot...on Tucker's bed. She always grabs a book and crawls over to it. Some people like a quite chair...she likes a quiet dog bed...to each his own.
Animal Crackers! She has been introduced to animal crackers and loves them. She can't get enough of them. However yesterday she would eat the cracker, but the little (soggy/slobbery) piece that was in between her fingers, she felt the need to shove it into my mouth for me to eat. How sweet of her.
We went to Galveston for the weekend with some friends. It was fun, but I think the crowd stressed out Cora a little bit. She was VERY clingy to Mommy all weekend. She was fine as long as she was somehow attached to me. When we were alone she was fine and would walk along all the furniture and laugh. She never saw the stairs, so I didn't have to worry about it this trip. It was a good weekend to just get away and relax. She went on her first boat ride and hated it. Most of it was the life jacket, but she was miserable, so Daddy turned around and dropped us off on dry land.
She bit her tongue on Saturday with her shiny new teeth! Oops...actually bled for a few seconds too...hence how I knew she did it. I knew those teeth were sharp! She also was testing Mommy and crawled over to the outlet and touched it with one finger, turned to look at me and smiled. I told her no and she started shaking her head and still smiled while touching the outlet. The kicker was that there was an audience and she was testing me! Little booger.
Cora moved up to her new class today. Made me sad, but she needed to...I think she was getting a little bored in the old class. I am ready to let them provide her food too...but I found out today that I most likely will still be taking food for her. Some of the food they serve just sounds gross and they are serving some things I don't want her to eat just yet...like hot dogs...eck! And there is the chocolate chip cookies...um, hello? Plus I don't want her on juice yet. I know...I am a picky first time mom...whatever...my kid...my rules, right? She eats her fruits and veggies just fine right now, why ruin a good thing with junk? She had a hard time this morning, but did better after her nap. And part of all the whining could be because she was tired. So, tomorrow is a new day and hopefully she will do better.
I hope everyone has a wonderful week!
