Dot's Spot

We had a long day trip into town for car repair and shopping. Dot was very well behaved in the car, but an absolute nightmare all the time she was home today. She kept whining and crying and we couldn’t figure out what she wanted, except to get up onto the table and play with my phone, both of which she isn’t allowed to do.

She enjoyed her new Melissa & Doug Crayons, and can even put them back into the case. These are so much better than the Tadoodles; although they aren’t big and round, they are big and triangular and she can grab onto them quite well, and as her grip develops it will help shape it into the proper tripod grip for writing. They are very durable and survived a great deal of poking, banging, throwing, and even a little bit of chewing. Apparently they aren’t nearly as tasty as the Crayola crayons! She also liked her new Crayola Tadoodles stamps. Tomorrow we’ll be getting the markers!
