Too Cool for...Something

IMG_5926

Sabine has gone through a developmental growth spurt, recently. Her hair's longer (PONYTAILS! Which, more astoundingly, she requests every day, and then LEAVES IN! Will wonders never cease.)

And her train of thought seems to be more complex. We've entered the Why stage. All day long, "Why? Why? Why? Why?" We are trying to be patient, mostly it seems like a real request for information, but sometimes it is exhausting to come up with an answer for everything. Biology was a long time ago, kid. I don't remember the evolutionary explanation for why bees' stingers are on their butts. Please take it up with someone else and maybe let mommy enjoy some silence for thirty seconds while drumming up your next question.

The development has also meant that her glorious run of two-hour-long naps that go from exactly 2:00 to 4:00 has come to an end. She skipped naps twice this week, and when she does go down it's anywhere between 12:30 and 3:30. There was also a slight regression in potty training, which has been (trying not to jinx it) perfect for weeks now. But hopefully we'll get back on track soon, and in the meantime, it's fun to have a conversation with someone who now takes great pleasure in ratting out daddy for using my toothpaste.
