Fun Around the Corner

Mila found the playroom.

Mostly her increasing ability to find things that she remembers but can't see is pretty fantastic. She's better at remembering where she left her pacifiers than I am, for example. But that whole "I'm just going to meander over to the opposite side of the house thing" is a challenge.

A big challenge.

Considering how much noise the Tiny Human makes at all times of day, she sure does know how to silently sneak off to another room. And don't get me started on how FAST she is. Yesterday, in the time it took me to walk a paper towel four feet to a garbage can, she was gone. Zoom zoom!

Mostly, though, it's fine. It's fine that she goes to the playroom because it's the PLAYROOM. It's the place where kids are supposed to go when they want to play. It's a safe place for Mila to explore, tear things apart, and smash out a beautiful tune.

Or at least it's a safe place now. There was much cleaning and organizing and purging that had to take place in order for Mila to be able to be in there without constantly tripping on choking hazards. During the great purge/organize/clean, Alexis was sooooooo annoyed. I basically took away all of the fun stuff, in her opinion. It was so horrible that Alexis declared she was never going to go in the playroom again.
