We were playing outside today, Eve in the
stroller while I chased after Lex and Nate (my 1st daycare
charge). Lex put his water cup on the stroller and a few
minutes later I noticed Eve sitting forward reaching for the
cup. I watched as she grabbed the cup, brought it to her mouth
and drank some water! Guess it’s time to introduce the sippy
cup… well, start using anyway, she doesn’t seem to need much
introduction! I didn’t have the camera with me at the time, but
she continued to grab it and suck on it (not always on the
sippy part, sometimes on the side or bottom :) ) every time Lex
put it down. Silly girl. I was able to get pictures a bit later
in the afternoon. I was feeding her avocado for dinner and she
started making sputtering faces, so I got her a cup of water
and she drank up, then ate more avocado. Kids are pretty good
at telling you when they are ready for stuff.
Yesterday I put her down on her belly in the
brown chair (she’s getting a bit big for it these days) and Lex
was walking around, climbing on the chair, stepping over her,
hugging her, saying “hello my babies” and “hi eve” and
generally doing his Lex thing. She was soooooo happy. She was
doing her baby push-ups and trying so hard to see everything he
was doing and she kept laughing. It was great! I kept peeking
at them (to make sure everything was ok), but they just played
together for the longest time. It was the coolest
thing.
