Those comparison shots are uncannily similar. I also wish the googly eyes on those frog sunglasses had googly eyes which had smaller googly eyes onwards into infinity.

― tylerw, Thursday, 28 May 2015 15:18 (nine years ago) link
That's awesome. Evie can read a decent number of words but probably not enough to read a book on her own and she doesn't seem very motivated so far to push herself to try and sound words out if she doesn't recognize them right away.
― Immediate Follower (NA), Thursday, 28 May 2015 15:21 (nine years ago) link
yeah she was pretty much like that til about april and then suddenly was sitting there doing it ... she's still reading aloud, so our house is now constantly filled with the sound of her happily performing old Peanuts strips. "YOU BLOCKHEAD!!"

so Marin's been going to a child-minder's 3 days a week since Sarah went back to work a month ago, and it was really rough at first, and drop-offs were teary affairs that were painful to then go off to work from until literally this week - but she seems to have a pretty amazing time while there, and I am loving the pix the child-minder takes of her.https://igcdn-photos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xaf1/t51.2885-15/11379073_384973061706583_1735613933_n.jpg
She is *really into books at the moment, too, though rarely patient enough to let me finish reading one to her.https://igcdn-photos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfa1/t51.2885-15/11357282_499883680166096_398888721_n.jpg

My lord she is so cute.
Are there other kids at the child-minder's? I had a hard time taking Ivy to daycare at first, too, but now she loooooves it and it helps her to be very social and learn to share (although last week she expressed her displeasure that her favorite teacher was paying attention to another kid by biting that kid, so there's still work to be done), which is key since she's an only. So even though it's tough, I think that's a really good benefit to childcare.
Also, and I didn't believe this at first, but it is really nice to have some kid-free time. I'm working, so it's not like I'm getting wasted and watching horror movies or anything, but it's nice to be able to focus on something other than the urgent and inscrutable needs of an 18 month old for a few hours each day.
― from batman to balloon dog (carl agatha), Friday, 5 June 2015 16:03 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, lots of other kids, and she's always been crazy about other kids, so she now has a bunch of older "siblings" to hang with. Also they have lots of food, because Marin is an eater, and I don't think any of you understand just how much of a bottomless pit she is. I picked her up the other day and she gazed into the child-minder's kitchen and started saying "mmmmmm!" because she spotted a fruit bowl with some bananas in it.

Stevie I bet she's about to hit a big milestone and she's building up some energy. The pointing and Mmmmmm!ing is great because at least you know what she wants.

tooth number five arrived yesterday, and she's worked out how to make an "oink" sound when asked what a pig says - can there be any milestones left to arrive??
― NotKnowPotato (stevie), Friday, 5 June 2015 16:36 (nine years ago) link
Can't remember if we talked about it here, but the first few weeks of F going to nursery were traumatic, and left us all in bits. And now he's pretty delighted with things. Still not too wild about other kids, but I think it's mostly because he's still finding his feet and they're all high-speed.
― stet, Friday, 5 June 2015 16:40 (nine years ago) link
Yeah Ivy is in the process of moving to the toddler room which needs to happen ASAP because she basically mauls little babies with kisses and attention now. I never thought she'd be too rough for anyone, she was always so wee, but her love is intense, physical, and slobbery.
