A Week With The Veuleman Clan - Day 5

Today is Thursday...

I'm going to be brief tonight because I have lots to do before tomorrow. And sorry, I don't have any pictures to post today. I know that is most upsetting for the Grandma's.

Landry slept in till 9:00 this morning, which is always a little bit nice for me because I can get some housework done before she wakes up. Also, she seems to wake up so happy when she is really well rested.

Thursday is the second day of the week we go to the library for story-time. Thursdays are geared for 18-month-olds to 3-year-olds. It's very similar to Monday's, just a little more advanced. Before this week, when Landry and I would go to story-time, she enjoyed it, but she didn't participate too much. She was so intrigued by the other children, she would just stare at them instead. They would always sing songs she knew the motions to, but she acted like she had never her the songs in her life. This week, a change has taken place. She has gone from the one who sits and stares, to the one that all the other children watch. She acts like she is in charge, going to the front of the class, doing all the motions and waving to everyone. It is super-cute.

And while we are on the subject of changes....a picky-eater has emerged from my little angel and I wished she'd go away. When other people would complain about their babies not wanting to eat anything, I'd always say, "Oh sorry, never had that problem. Landry has always eaten ANYTHING." Not anymore. And I'm sure some of your are chuckling under your breath right now. Landry is now picking through everything I give her, so she'll only get the parts she wants. She is pulling the crust off of her bread. If something looks the slightest bit suspicious, she won't even try it. As a matter of fact, after story-time we had a luncheon with one of the college ministries and they were serving chili dogs. Now I have to admit, when Cory and I heard they were serving hot dogs, we opted for Subway instead. But we thought Landry might like at least one of the components of the chili dog. She did.....the shredded cheese. That is the only thing she would touch. No bun, no weenie, no chili. So now I will have to give her plenty of raisins to help out with her digestion.

After luncheon, Landry and I went home so she could take a nap. I baked the rest of the cookies I started yesterday. It made a huge batch. I sent them with Cory tonight.

Tonight Cory has a worship service with one of our college groups.... noticing a trend. I would normally go with him, but tomorrow we leave for a conference with all 3 of our college groups. I felt it best to stay home and prepare for that.

I said I was going to be brief, but I guess I fibbed.

P.S. The baby just kicked me a few times. What a sweet feeling!
