"Nice"

One of Nidhi's latest additions to her vocabulary is the word "nice". She goes "naaeeeese!!" after a mouthful of something we think she finds pleasant. But she can be rather generous with it as well. So a spoon of her ever favorite plain yogurt is "nice", a wee bit of strawberry sauce is "naaaice", a sip of water when she is thirsty is "nice", and a dose of unexpectedly bitter medicine is also, you guessed it, "nice!". How can one complain with such an angel for a daughter.

She has been spending longer periods this week, at play with her toys. The animal puzzle can engross her the longest, and she is also taking a lot of interest in pretend play with her plastic wok set. Though, she mostly just pretends to be stirring and drinking coffee out of a cup.

Getting some new toys from the library has been helpful to provide her with variety. I also am shortlisting a set of books to purchase since the good ones at the local library are always on loan.

N had a difficult time going to bed today and as a result of which I have been up late, but for now, sleep beckons.
