The playdate went well this morning, as usual. The girls went strong for 3 hours and were more than ready for more :) Daisy started off charming, but then turned into a glaring baby who refused to acknowledge anyone. Actually, she was acting rather odd most of the day. Well, as odd as a baby can act anyway. Chris has a cold right now so we're wondering if she's running a mild virus and it's affecting her. She and I napped this afternoon and she woke up crying and it very quickly escalated to screaming, she fell back asleep while eating and woke up crying 10 minutes later. Just odd. She's down for the night now though, so hopefully she'll sleep off whatever is bothering her.
Let me tell you, that little baby is strong. We had her leaning back on pillows and she was trying so hard to pull herself into a sitting position. Later in the day she was leaning back on Chris's lap and she did. She went from laying back to a complete sitting position simply by using her back and stomach muscles. She cried from the exertion of that little accomplishment though. She can also roll onto her side and I think if she really tried she could actually flip over. She practically scoots when on her stomach but since she doesn't have the desire to go anywhere or try to get to a toy or something she only goes a couple of centimeters forwards or backwards.
I mailed off Tabitha's entry form to the fair yesterday. One of the competitions for kids is collections. She's entering "most unusual" and that will be her bouncy ball collection. I think she has a decent shot. The fair isn't until September, but that category fills up way fast so we mailed the entry form the day we received a post card telling us the forms were up online. She also wants to enter some of her art, but we have plenty of time to figure out what category and all that stuff so I'll just do another entry form later.
