5/9 The Day of the Pollywog

Bedtime is going back to being fun and not an ordeal. Still a small struggle, but much better. They both get into bed with their various toys for the night and blankies and bobos and books to “read” to themselves. The boy, at least, does not really go to sleep right away, and often is up for quite some time, but I think he’s developing some strategies to deal with his wakefulness, especially combined with his newfound awareness of good guys and bad guys and the scary monsters.

One really sweet ear of corn that was just yummy. Not until I tasted the others did realize the difference between really good corn and just corn.

Pollywog check: Ladies and gentlemen, we have pollywogs. One of them was sitting on top of a lily pad. Another was floating in the pond off to the side. G and Ivy both got to see it before the boy made some loud noise and scared the pollywogs away.

G calls tatertots “babies.” I thought that was cute.

Animal crackers.
