March 15, 2000

*sigh* Alexandria is 19 months today. She's growing up too fast for me sometimes! She was excited this morning because her daycare is taking the toddlers to the University sheep barns, and she's been baaing/bleating in anticipation. Since it's lambing season, they have the ewes inside to give birth and the children will be able to watch. I wish I could be there to see Alli's reaction and to watch the births myself!

We're taking off for California tonight and when I get back, I get to drive my NEW car home!!! Yep, I finally found a car! It's a Honda Civic, dark red and with 4 doors. Yippee! My big excitement was discovering the cupholders. Ah, the simple joys in life. LOL! Alli will probably see it and say, "Elmo!" as she does with most red things. Besides her parents of course, Elmo is the great love of her life. She drags around her Elmo everywhere we go, feeds him, gives him her "ba-ba" and lets him have a spare binkey at times. She even tries to put a diaper on him. She's such a doll!

As for the binkey at naptimes, she has had NO problems at daycare going down! *knock on wood* Now, if I could get her off of it at bedtime...

Hope everyone is happy and healthy!

As ever, Chandra~~+~~Alexandria
