Library Days
So, I am trying to look for some fun things Punky & I can do and so today we went to the library. She picked out some fun books, and we are excited to read them. I am going to start reading her chapter books...big girl books that don't have big pictures in them...I want her to use her imagination and anticipate what is going to happen night after night. We will see if it will keep her attention or not. If anyone has any recommendations for a book series that she would enjoy, I am open for suggestions! I thought about American Girl, but selfishly am trying to hold off on that because of all of the hoopla that comes with it (those dolls and accessories are SO expensive!).

Cuteness from the Punk-ster
As we were driving in the car the other day, Punky asked me where we were going. I told her to the physical therapist to help my neck. She said "Again? Mommy, you don't need to go there all the time, you just need to exercise in the morning like Daddy!" She knows my weakness!
Sitting in the physical therapist's, Punky wanted to go into one of the rooms to see if there were toys in it. She kept asking and I repeatedly kept telling her no. Finally she said, "Mommy, if we can go in there, I will give you a treat!" Gee, like she hasn't heard that bribe before!
Then, we were at home getting ready for supper and Punky wanted something to eat. I said no because it was almost supper time. She kept asking, and finally she said, Mommy, you need to give it to me, or else you are going to have a time out! Ugh.

Too big
Punky informed us the other day that she is too big for a car seat...those are for babies, she said. I think this all came from seeing her friend (who is a year older) get in the car and sit on a booster seat. So now, she keeps talking about getting a booster seat instead of a "baby" car seat.
The only thing we can think to tell her is that she has to eat in order to grow. It has actually worked a few times. She actually ate a piece of bologna at the sitters today for the first time! Small steps of progress...
