Her class did their end of year program last week and my sweet girl was a flower in the story of a butterfly's life. Cutest little flower in the world! And I was so proud to see her standing up on the stage all by herself!
Kinsey will have Extended School Year again this summer, which is 2 mornings a week for 5 weeks, but we've got a few weeks off before that starts. We're looking forward to a vacation in our camper in a couple of weeks. I'm also signing Kinsey up for a toddler gymnastics class that's one morning a week. We went for a trial class this morning and she enjoyed it. They have a little obstacle course to go through, a small trampoline that's built into the floor, a foam pit and floor fun time. I think she'll like it even more as she gets used to all the activities.
Kinsey gave me a heart attack this week - she managed to find one of those Silica Packets that comes in bags and shoes for keeping them dry and of course she put it in her mouth. I found her with it after she'd already put the entire thing in her mouth and went into total panic mode because I know they clearly say on them Do Not Eat! I'm always really careful about throwing them away because I knew this is exactly what would happen if she found one. I quickly fished as much of it as I could out of her mouth, attempted to rinse her mouth out, looked up the danger online and called Poison Control. Turns out Silica isn't toxic, it's mainly labeled that way because it's not food and it could be a joking hazard (the little Silica beads are hard). I watched her carefully the rest of the afternoon to make sure she was ok - she was perfectly fine after she got over being upset from me fishing it all out of her mouth - I was the one who was traumatized! Not that I'm going to relax about those packets now, but at least I know they're not toxic!
Last night Kinsey did something new - she picked up her little cup off the table and took it straight over to the water dispenser in the door of the fridge. She put the cup behind the lever, so she didn't get any water, but she had the right idea! I helped her do it a few times (putting just about 1/4" of water in the cup each time). I tried to get it on video, but it's not very good.
Not much else to report right now. Hopefully the weather will improve and start to feel like summer soon and we'll be able to go out and play with the baby goats and do other things outside!
