at home with an Ivysaurus

By MoGrant

Weeeeee!

Ivy plonked herself in a box today- so Euan pushed her round and round whilst she shouted weeeeeeee. Lots and lots needed done in the house, that is just disastrous now there's piles and piles of stuff to unpack (first day of officially not renting our old house today) but actually taking a break to just do nothing but play was totally the right thing to do and did everyone a world of good.

Euan pulled an all nighter at the old place, cleaning before coming home to crawl into bed to sleep till the afternoon. Ivy and I- deciding there was no way we could cook in the kitchen- went out to a the pop up cafe at the art gallery for soup and cake for lunch. Ivy put her own welly boots on all by herself (on the right feet and everything, but that was probably a fluke). We had fun looking at the art work- Ivy has alot to say about paintings, her comment about an animated short about a man who goes out fishing then swims off with a mermaid was that he had 'no shoes'.

Since Ivy will repeat anything said to her, i've been doing the alphabet song with her. Euan and I pronounce the letter 'J' differently in the alphabet- I say 'Ji' and he says 'Jay'- during her massage he was doing the alphabet with her and apparently she repeated 'Jay', then when he said 'kay' she was like hmmmm wait a minute here and said 'Mummy Ji!' so it's two against one in the great alphabet debate
