OBSESSIONS

There are a few things in Macie's life right now that she is obsessed with

#1. Balls, even though we play with balls all day at home, when we go to the servus sports centre and there are tons of new toys she could play with she speedily runs past theme and strait for the balls.

#2. Music. I think her happy place right now would be a huge room full of balls that was playing music. We have our stereo set up in our kitchen right now and she knows what the remote looks like, once she sees the remote she cries for it and then points her fingers at the stereo. Once we turn it on she is full out dancing for a good 30 to 45 minutes.

#3. Nelson, her stuffed monkey. This morning I had to give her a little time out in her crib as she would not calm down, I forgot that Nelson was in there and after 2 minutes of pure silence I thought I better check to make sure she was not asleep. When I went in she was lying in her crib and was giving Nelson kisses. It was the cutest thing I have ever seen. she even knows the monkey by name and if I ask her to go and get Nelson she knows exactly who he is and where she can find him.

#4. Raisins. It blows my mind that a kid could like raisins this much, but she is crazy obsessed with them. She would eat them all day long everyday if I let her. She never gets sick of them and has at times eaten a whole box to herself, and these boxes are not little.

I am sad to report that her little Octopus bath friend is no longer of interest to her and her new favorite thing to do in the tub is fill a container with water and then poor it out.

It amazes me how quickly her obsessions with things can come and go so quickly. Although I see these 4 obsessions sticking around for quit a while, or at least I hope.
