Window on the World
Since the house still isn't baby proofed, we have turned our "formal diningroom" into a playroom for Karis. We have baby gates on the entrances to the room to keep her safe. aka. baby jail! lol
She has most of her toys in there plus a TV/DVD player for watching her DVDs. She loves having this room to roam and dump out all of her toys in. I have learned it's no use trying to keep it even renotely orderly during the day. Soon we will begin working on learning to pick up our toys and put them away.
The large window is great to look out of. I name things for her and we can watch for daddy to come home in the evening. She likes to watch daddy mow the lawn with the big riding mower. She signs dog when the neighborhood dogs come by to put a deposit down on our lawn. She bangs on the window with her rhythm sticks even though she knows she isn't supposed to. I'd like to get a birdbath to put out in the front flower bed for Karis to watch.
While we eventually will turn it back into a diningroom. For now at least, it is my daughter's daily window to the world...
