Still no sign of the shoe. Now I'm pretty sure we lost it on the walk. Maybe I'll go take a walk with her later and look for it. But it rained all night last night so I highly doubt it can be saved even if I do find it.
Ok, today I snacked on a couple M&M's that I bought for my Christmas cookies. I was looking at the bag (ok, the fat content) and noticed that they call them 'The holiday bag'. Let me just get on my soap box for a minute here. I have absolutely no issue with people wishing others Happy Holidays. I really don't. But when the entire bag of M&Ms are RED, LIGHT GREEN AND DARK GREEN you may as well call it 'the Christmas bag'. If they were white, blue, red, and green then I can see it called the holidays bag. But, it's not. It's red and green. Call a spade a spade! And if they are calling it the holiday bag to not offend people then add in some white and blue, too. Ok, off my soap box now.
I got a good work out in this morning. It felt good to get back on the elliptical machine after 3 days. I had a good night's sleep last night, too. It was the first night in four days that I've slept well. It was great to get 7 1/2 hours of straight sleep! I have a loaf of 7 grain bread in the breadmaker for dinner with some frozen (now defrosting) homemade soup.
Maddy found her mini magnadoodle today. I was looking for a timer in my teacher stuff and ran across my break time goodies I used to use for my kids. This was one of them so I brought it upstairs so she could play with it if she wanted it. Well, she LOVES it. She can't get enough of drawing with it. Here's a picture.
She also ate out of a bowl with her fingers for the first time today. (Normally I just put her food on her high chair tray.) She loves asparagus so I put them into a plastic bowl and she chowed right down. She hasn't tried to throw it over the side yet, but I give it another day or two before the entire bowl goes over.
Well, I have a couple other things I want to get done while she naps. So I better get a move on! Have a good day everyone!
