The last couple of days have been so much fun, filled with lots of bike riding, park playing, board games, and books. I think she is really enjoying being with us and just soaking up the attention and 1:1 interactions.

Oh yea bike riding!! We picked up a bike the other day and she was so excited that all she wants to to do is ride around the neighborhood after school. Seriously in 38 degree weather the other night, my hands were in danger of amputation from frost bite and she was flying ahead on her pink bike laughing the whole time, saying come on keep going. But talk about nerve racking there is nothing like an out of control 8 year old screaming down a hill who announces “oh oh I can’t stop” quick what do you do?

But last night was by far the most fun as we rocked out to some Hannah Montanna while playing an exciting game of Yahtzee. Yes that’s right Yahtzee, not candy land or chutes and ladders… but that’s what she wanted to learn how to play and she beat us! Then finished up with her reading us Flat Stanley and Fancy Nancy. All tucked in and so happy trying out the second bed in her room to figure out which one she likes the best.
