Favorite Toy

Our daughter has a current favorite toy. This is a toy she has had since before birth (a baby shower gift). She rediscovered it a few weeks ago, and it is now her favorite. She gave it a name one day: Starfind. Surprisingly, the name stuck and the obsession persisted, even after we went on a trip without it and came home. She was sick this week, and she kept this next to her and snuggled with it in her blanket at all times.

If you're thinking Starfind is a cuddly animal, think again. It is this funny little radio box that plays classical music and lights up when you push the button. She even asked to use my phone for a little photoshoot. Behold: 

Starfind gets its name from these stars.

Cat Anatomy

 I love how our daughter is interested in anatomy. We got a book a couple years ago about the human body, and it has been great to refer to body systems in simple ways she can understand. She recently showed basic comprehension of the GI tract when she drew my uncle's cat on a sack puppet and explained it as follows: 

Dasani Can

 Life has been more exciting than usual around here, and that's why I haven't posted for a while.

But in the spirit of posting something this month, here we go:

I learned that Dasani makes cans of water. It is plain water, not carbonated. They just serve it in an aluminum can. I thought it would taste weird, but it was fresh, cold, and delicious. 

That's enough for now!
