Recent Taelyn Anecdotes

Taelyn had a few funny moments lately that I thought were worth sharing. First, I took her to Toddler Time last week where there is a mix of young toddlers like Taelyn fresh out of Baby Time and some older toddlers who can talk, sit at a table, draw, etc. Taelyn loves to follow the older toddlers around, and they seem to want nothing to do with a little kid following them. So last week, Taelyn came up to an older toddler sitting on a chair, put her arm on the back of his chair, and started talking to him with as many made up words that she could possibly muster. She had a huge smile on her face and was so excited to talk to this boy. After her long speech, he took one look at her and in an irritated voice said, "Please get your hand off my chair" and then turned his back on her. Poor Taelyn! But despite being turned down, there are other kids that love to play with her too.

The next story took place last night when we had a baby-sitter watch Taelyn while we went out with some friends. Everyone came over to our place to start, and Taelyn was in high spirits with all of the commotion going on. When the baby-sitter showed up, she showed her some books and hung out while we finished getting ready to go. Then when it was time to go, we said bye-bye to Taelyn. This excited her even more; she thought she was coming with us! So she waved and said bye-bye to the baby-sitter and headed straight for the door to leave. She was not so thrilled, however, when she had to stay behind, but she had a great time playing with the baby-sitter once the initial shock wore off!
