Poor Mary has had the sniffles since that 26th and a night cough for about a week now. Chris has the same. Last night they kept waking each other up with their coughing; ran me up the wall. A little humidifier action and they should be back up to snuff soon.
The runny nose doesn't slow Mary down much. She's getting a top tooth. Finally she will be able to instill fear into the heart of an artichoke.
Today the daycare ladies witnessed Mary's mad ninja skills. Mary and her especial friend, Madeline, were both taken with the same yellow lid this morning. After breakfast Mary watched Madeline playing with it but never made a grab for the lid. Then at nap time Mary scooted over to her little friend, slowly rolled the kid over to her side, slid the lid out of her hand and carefully rolled her back. Poor Madeline never knew what happened.
The daycare ladies were equally non-plussed.
I keep telling people, this girl is a sneak thief. She has her father's patience, the potential for her father's coordination and my utter lack of scruples. Add looks and brains and we are all in trouble.
(Last month she purposefully dropped her binky. I was kind of confused but picked it up. While I was bent over she grabbed my cell phone out of my back pocket. Sneak. Thief.)
