... and it's sing song time
Here it is. Day 30. For the second year in a row I've successfully navigated the waters of November blogging. Why I don't just tell myself it's 'Blogging Month' every month and update more the rest of the year I have no idea, but for whatever reason November seems to be when my biorhythms hit their peak.
Although truth be told I copped out more this month with relying more on pictures than actual stories. Whatever ... you guys just want the pics. I know how you roll.
I also learned that Megan is GOBS of fun at this age. Don't tell her I said this but the baby years were only so-so compared to toddler Megan. The other morning she brought a book with her into our bedroom while Jill got ready for work, "The Best Mouse Cookie." Perhaps you've heard of it. And for twenty minutes we read it together and she asked questions about the action in the pictures and seemed truly interested in wanting to understand the 'story' as opposed to just absent-mindedly reeling off "What's that?" a mind-numbing twenty times like normal. It wasn't anything major, just a brief moment of a routine day, but it amped me up for the day. She's awesome.
Oh, and one other thing I've learned. Megan loves stickers. Except with not putting them where they're supposed to go.

wait- where are stickers supposed to go? Have I been doing it wrong all these years???
Thanks for taking the time to blog this month! Loved seeing you guys in person for just a moment in Indy... and loved seeing the Megan pics every day!
Uh...those stickers look familiar! Were those a freebie in some kids mag or something??? I keep telling my parents/in laws, "No need for presents. Stickers will be fine. She LOVES THEM!" We'll see how well they listen to that!
