Big girl time

Fiona gets "big girl time" after lunch while Nora takes a nap. Sometimes this means time to read books or begin prep work for dinner. Other times it means work on Big Girl Projects. Today was one of those days. Fiona wanted to get out the fabric paint, so we found some old t-shirts and she and Granny indulged got creative. Check out Fiona wearing the same paint smock that my sister and I both used in kindergarten! I don't know how long it will take for those shirts to dry, but they look very different now! It's enough fun that, of course, Nora really wants to be a big girl too.

Speaking of which, Nora is mostly logging time in the big bed now. It seems too soon to take the crib down, since she doesn't sleep in it exclusively... yet... But she does like the big bed, and she also enjoys napping in the big bed with a cat or two. Surprisingly, the cats enjoy it too!
