New toys and new tools
Adelaide has gotten some new stuff.. :)
One thing, that we understood, that she needs.. was the jumpy animal. This thing is at many people's homes, where we visit, and she likes it each time, also when we were in Georgia. And lately she has shown more than ever interest in sitting on things, she goes to sit on her bike or even on her rocking horse, that she got for birthday (finally she likes it!), and she has been using an empty 5 liter plastic water bottle.. :D ..as her "jumping animal" for a while now. So, even though it works too, we decided to finally buy her the real thing. Here it is. Actually, at first, what she liked most - was to put hair rubber bands on it's ears! :D I guess those remind of her own cute pony tail.
And then - so we could finally do some autumn gardening together - Mr. Husband bought her a rake. And actually the whole set - also a shovel and a snow shovel. Interesting fact, her rake cost 5 times more than mine. :D And the whole set was really expensive.. But well. There were also cheaper ones, but he decided to go for the quality.. Hopefully, a good investment - so she (and other children) can really use it for many years to come.
So to not make the same mistake as yesterday, we went outside early today. :) A beautiful day, and a fun day - raking some leaves in our parking lot! And Adelaide really did get the point.. and was helping me. Only for a tiny bit, for now.
Then she found the chestnuts, once the leaves were gone, and this time she knew immediately - they go in my pocket!
