Hodgepodge

Oops! It's been a while since our last post, so we'll make up for it in the next couple of days as I finally go through the videos from August and September. This post will be mostly August.

We'll start with two new hobbies of the month. First is an increased interest in drawing (asking "Do you want to go draw?" sends her running for something to write with). Here's her excited after one of her first masterpieces:



A second new game is to play with the $8 croquet set we picked up at Goodwill a few weeks ago. While she occasionally looks like a homicidal maniac when wielding one of them, she seems to have down the general rule that they're supposed to be used for hitting balls on the ground (or occasionally other things, as you'll see in the video). Also note the painstaking care she takes in choosing the right mallet for each job.




And finally, some good ol'-fashioned goofiness on her play structure.
