Cuddle Me, I'm Upset not Hurt!

After all the backpack activity of the past day Peanut took a spill off the end of the couch. I think she sat on the arm and leaned too far back. Maybe the new backpack helped break the fall. No bruises or bumps. Or hurt ego. That was quickly comforted by Nanny.


She hardly needed to see Dada

More Snacks

After Peanut's Hanging On I thought I would show our little girlie getting herself some Nutrious for a snack


See not always Fruitloops

Peanut's New Backpack

We were taking Nanny Dot to MEC to look for a few things. I was looking around for a new backpack. After 10 years every zipper on my backpack was about to go. BigE was a big help finding something very similar to the last.

As I turned around I saw this LittleLife Toddler Runabout DayPack or too cute as well call it (Amazon link because MEC doesn't show the pink version). Peanut had worn a plastic backpack in the nursery toys one Sunday so I wondered if she was interested.

She didn't quite freak out for it but she was happy to walk around with it.


Off she went with the posted note and pen in her hand writing notes. I think she believes she's off to school.

The big loop is a "parent handle", and it even comes with a parent leash. Or big brother leash as its known in our house. We might need to hide that.

Peanut's Hanging On

Affter Vaccinated Peanut was finally starting to feel better. As she was coming around she decided to find her own snacks.

Out came brother's popcorn


I gave up. I figured if your eating I ok with it. I laid down on the couch to ice my ankle (twisted saturday) Peanut climbed up onto my belly to eat her popcorn.

The next morning Peanut decided she'd like a few fruit loops. Perfectly happy to help herself. Five fruit loops later and she's good.

And finally there is the pic of Peanut trying to figure out how I made that thermometer beep. She never did quite figure it out.

Dada's Birthday

A little steak for dinner. Followed up by some vanilla cake. There was plenty of helpers for the cake!



Peanut wanted up in my lap and wanted part of this action!

Vaccinated

The kids were vaccinated for H1N1 on the weekend. We got there at 7:30 for an 8:00 hockey practice and there were armfuls of the wrist bands. We came back at 2:00 and the kids had their shots.

Mama was working but had been warned to give the kids something because they probably would spike a fever afterwords. True to form Peanut has been running warm for the last day or so. She doesn't seem to get as hot as BigE but it seems to impact her more.

Peanuts been awfully warm and tired for the past two days.

Child Creativity?

BigE's been sick for a few days (no not that!) so he's hardly been out. Today he headed back to school. He decided to be creative on where he hung up his coat.

Yes I made him take it down but I have to say I was impressed!

The Little Young Old Lady

The day after halloween Peanut started playing with the pumpkin bucket. It's nothing to do with candy. I guess its out and around so she decided to play with it. She even wanted to put stuff in it. Like her blocks or cereal. Yes that was a nice mess to clean up.

I didn't catch quite the picture I wanted here but I had to show Peanut channeling a 70 year old lady the way she was carry the bucket.

Hooked on the elbow. If that was an old purse Peanut was ready to roll to the mall.
