Charlotte woke up at 6:15 this morning hungry!! I fed her and she went back to sleep till 7:30, but I was awake. Not the best start to the day!! Maddie was having a hard time listening this morning and was doing a lot of yelling.....not in a bad way, just loud. I think she might have had low blood sugar because she scarfed down her lunch, and asked for more grapes, and then wanted pistachios once lunch was done. Anyway, we had a rough start today, but I was able to turn it around by bringing out the playhut and a bag of balls. Both girls had a blast. Charlotte had never been in anything like it before and was very excited to be surrounded by so many balls, and Maddie wanted to play with her sister and didn't want me around. She kept asking me to zip up the side and then politely informed me that I wasn't necessary anymore with a subtle "go away." We also listened to Maddie's personal CD (my mom got them for both girls and each song on the CD uses the name Maddie, or Charlotte) which kinda freaked her out at first....hearing a stranger on the CD player say hi Maddie and sing her name, but after she realized that it was just music she really liked it. I need to remember this trick for the future although its all really easy to set up, but a big mess with all the balls and a pain to put away....in fact I'm sure that Dan will not be excited to see the playhut tonight when he gets home! lol
