Writing Her Name

Tonight Meghan practiced writing her name.  She is getting pretty good at it.  The only problem: she is left handed.  I have the paper in a plastic sleeve that she uses dry erase marker on.  Her left hand sweeps across the letters she has already written and smudges them.

 Here she is finishing it up.

Enjoying January



Meghan has been having some fun this month.  She had a friend over to play last night while I went to game night with a friend.  While the mommies are away the kids will play.  Meghan decided to color herself and her friend.  There was even pen on the bottom of their feet.  Meghan seems quite pleased with her handy work.



 Being at preschool has given Meghan the opportunity to try all sorts of new things, like cutting.  She kept coming home and asking if she could use my scissors.  There was no way I was letting her use sharp bladed scissors.  After much searching I found the toddler scissors at Ikea.  She has a straight pair and a zig-zag pair.  She was proud of herself for all that confetti she made.

For Christmas Meghan got a few Lego sets.  They are the medium size ones that are still manageable for her but still allow for creativity.  She and Daddy made a zoo while I was cooking dinner. 

I love these moments, each and every one of them.
