Outside

Evie woke up this morning demanding juice and to go 'side'--or outside. So we spent a lot of the day with nana and grandpa outside, first at the zoo (she held mommy's hand even though she was in her vroom, vroom:
She and daddy make awfully silly looking ground hogs!And then she ate a Popsicle right before we left. Yummy! On the way home we went past the Powell water 'park' and stopped by. Evie thought the water was a little too wet, so she spent a lot of time on the playground:She was pretty fearless when it came to the slide. Daddy went down with her a few times but then she was all about going solo! She got really bad static in her hair which was pretty funny.

Evie switched to the toddler room at daycare and was there for her first full day on Friday. She had an awful time being dropped off but they said she did well during the day and she seemed totally happy when we picked her up. The new room is more group-activity focused and they take naps on cots (we were sure that would be a total fiasco but apparently she just needed a little back rubbing attention and then she napped for about 2+ hours. If being in the more 'grown-up' room makes her more grown-up, we are in for trouble--she is already so talkative and mobile--next she'll come home potty trained in a day and too good for her diapers!

Evie's eye is all better and PQ is back to mostly normal so disaster averted from last weekend! Here is some more evidence as to why babies should not dress themselves as well as Miss sassafras on the computer and double-spooning it at dinner:
