Hunting Dust Bunnies

While I was hunting dust bunnies under our bed, Molly was helping sweep the floor and dust. What a helper. I was almost done and about to say it was time for lunch when I notice water on our hardwood floor. Then Molly says, "i washing the floor". I'm thinking "there's no water in the bathtub -where is she getting the water?" I followed her into the bathroom to see water all over the toilet seat. Yup, she was dipping her cloth into the toilet bowl for water to clean the floor. I took the swiffer cloth away from her and threw it away while explaining we don't use the toilet water to clean things with, etc. No sooner did I walk out of the bathroom, did she grab it out of the trash and bring it back out into the bedroom saying "we need to dry it, let it dry" I managed to convince her to put it on the side of the tub to dry (I then knocked it into the tub where she couldn't reach!) Needless to say my plan of just dusting/sweeping has now expanded into steam mopping the floors and cleaning the bathroom. I love my little helper. I couldn't even be mad at her about it. She was just helping her Momma.

Gymnastics last class of the session

The last class of every session is a “show” class for parents, grandparents, etc to come see what the kids have been learning.  Molly wasn’t quite her energizing bunny self on Monday (I heard her up at 3am talking and playing in her crib) during class so she didn’t do many of the skills.  I was able to get some good photos and a few short videos.  So here ya go…..

Molly the ballerina

We saw a ballet class practicing one day and Molly was fascinated. Now when she twirls around she calls herself a ballerina. Needless to say when I found this tutu at Costco, it needed to come home with us. She loves showing it off.

She’s so proud

As motivation for potty training, we take Molly’s picture when she goes on the potty.  She also gets a sticker. She really only uses the potty before bed but is having great success with it-almost every night.  She will sit on the potty sometimes before nap but that is hit or miss.  She is also getting good about telling us when she has a wet diaper –another good step to saying bye bye to the diapers!!

yup that’s our backyard

Molly helped Floyd cut the backyard grass for the first time.
