Well, we made it to 2010. We spent the night with friends while Laney slept through the official change of year. Yesterday I got to spend a few hours playing with her while Patrick was golfing. We had so much fun cuddling and playing on the couch. I got her to say her name, finally! She says “nay-nee” instead of Laney. I also got her to blow kisses to me. What a fabulous day. I love my sweet girl. I am not really looking forward to going back to work next week because I really enjoy being home with her.
Today we had our traditional Dutch New Year's Day meal of Olie Bolen (sp?) and appelfloppen (sp?). Laney liked the olie bolen a little, but would not eat the appelfloppen. Neither would Brodie, even though they both love plain apples. It was really fun to see Brodie and Laney playing side by side, but boy do they fight over toys. They both wanted a duck that you can pull along behind you and we had to find another pull toy to end the fight. Later, when Laney was picking her nose, I made her stop and she tried to bite me. Then she layed down on the patio and started crying. I took her inside and put her on the carpet for a time out. She got so angry that she pooped while she was crying! A few minutes later, all was well again and she went on playing. She loves to stack towers of blocks and cups and then knock/kick them down. She and Brodie played with the stacking blocks for awhile. Laney was so cute too when she held Kiersten's hand and went into the kitchen with her to get an apple. She loves her cousin so much.
