Playing with Mama’s tablet is a good way to start the day:

Heather and I made some decorations for Valentine’s Day. Most of her work got mailed to grandparents, but the top-right heart is hers. (In case you couldn’t tell.)

She really likes to do puzzles.

Eating cereal at the counter with Daddy. And if he’s going to be reading stuff on his tablet, she wants hers, too!

I went looking for her and found her reading to Penguin. I can’t remember why she had no clothes on.

I worked on this cross stitch for 4 years, and I finally got it framed! It was a project unto itself, but I think it came out well.

Heather in her new dress. Yay!

Heather got up at her usual time this morning (about 7:30am) after going to sleep at her usual time last night (around 7:30pm).  She had breakfast, watched some Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood, and we played outside a little bit; a fairly normal morning.

Jess and I were just hanging about when Heather wandered off.  The quiet was suspicious and eventually Jess went looking for her.  She was lying in bed cuddled up with her blanket and pacifier trying to fall asleep.  So we asked her if she wanted us to close the blinds (she said, “Yes”).

We left her alone and about 20 minutes later she fell asleep (about noon).

Apparently she decided she was tired and so she went to take a nap.

What a goon.

Edit @ 4:10pm:
She just did it again! She was playing in the living room and just went back to her bedroom and closed the door. After about 10 minutes we went to check on her and she was in bed again, with her projector on, cuddled up with blankets.

We asked her if she wanted to go to the store and she said, “No, I’m still sleeping.”

Heather seems to have received the same Dickerson genes that provoked Erin into putting gloves on her feet and dancing like a chicken.  Heather’s footwear of choice, however, is oven mitts. Enjoy.

Some women from church ran a kids dance class a while back.  Here’s Heather dancing at the final class.  She seems to have chosen most of her own choreography…

If you have trouble picking her out of a crowd, she’s on the far right in the green/blue horizontal stripes.

Heather can blow bubbles!

Reading. I think she only got to wear this dress once before she grew out of it. Hooray for hand-me-downs!

Eating Cocoa Nuggets with Daddy!

This was her first nap in her new toddler bed. Those first few times, it was easy. A shame that didn’t last.

All dressed up! If you’re going to dance, you gotta do it in style.
