Patronizing

I guess our little girl is growing up. Normally we try to distract her while we get ready - talking about where we are going and what we are going to do. We find that this keeps her focused on getting her hair done, getting dressed, getting shoes on, etc. And it leaves little time for distractions like dollhouses, marks on the floor, the dog and other things that make getting out the door take hours. Many times we ask her questions like where is your coat, and do you think it is nice outside today? I think she must think we are idiots because today Josh says "where are daddy's shoes?" Kenna responds "I don't know, I didn't move them!" It is a rather silly question! I guess our distractions need to get more creative :)

On an exciting note, Zachary slept 6 hours straight last night...woohoo! But that was only after Josh laid on the floor with him for 45 minutes and stared at the ceiling fan :) Thanks little boy for giving mommy some sleep!
