A Jester by any other name |
But in Moron
Mama fashion, apparently I put it on backwards at first. I didn’t notice
this of course until we were playing and I saw the tag hanging from the
front.
I can’t
even dress this little girl properly.
I am quite sure she’s going to be teased by the baby fashionistas
at daycare “what, did you your mother dress you again?” How will she ever get into the cool
group with my fashion blunders?
Anyway, we
caught a break today. We got to move to a new room that is a lot bigger. We’ve been stuck in this little 8
x 10 room that didn’t allow us to be on the floor or really spread
out. But today they let us move into
a spacious room with a big mat on the floor and now we can really groove.
Finally check
out the latest videos of the kiddie.
She lived up to her court jester dress when I put the rattles on her
feet. She absolutely loves the
rattles on her feet, much more than on her hands. It’s pretty cute to see her
rattling her little feet away. Take
a gander….

In the evening,
the cottage people invited me over to dinner along with Lubya, the factotum of the
cottage and Oleg, our driver, in order to say goodbye. The kaplans leave on
Wednesday and Julie leaves on Thursday so they are in wind down mode.
Anyway, it was
fun but strange dinner. Oleg came
and brought his 3 year old daughter Masha.
And the cottage people had their 2 babies. Oleg and Lubya don’t speak English
at all. Julie, Tony and I speak no
Russian. Cindy speaks Russian but
was focused on Jadyn throughout dinner. So basically what we had was a bunch of
people who couldn’t really talk to each other sitting around smiling at
each other. Not much exchange of
information, but a lot of good will!!
Dinner ended with a demonstration by Oleg on how to do baby calisthenics
to induce a little nasty diaper action which poor little man Jadyn has been
struggling with.
