Coming home from delivering Girl Scout Cookies today with Bridget she needed to use the bathroom well before we were home. I pulled in at Wendy's and let her go in. Since I hate going into a place and just using the bathroom I bought myself a frosty float and the girls each a small frosty.
Stacia ate her entire frosty as soon as I got the plastic wrap off her spoon. I had to put the remainder of mine in the freezer when I got home so I could go down and work on getting more cookies ready to go for deliveries tomorrow.
When I got mine out again Stacia went straight to the silverware drawer and got out a spoon. She thought it was for her. I ended up sharing it with her and could not shovel fast enough for her. At times she was right in the middle of things blocking me from taking a bit of my treat myself.
Like I wrote yesterday she loves her ice cream.

I like water and ice cream
Around our house if you want to see Stacia get all excited just say the word Bath or start running water in the tub. Stacia gets all excited and comes running, she can not peel her clothes off fast enough to get in that tub. Her reaction to pools, and lakes has not been the same though she does love playing in her Papa's boat.
Last Friday we took the girls swimming at The Reef as part of an outing for Royal Rangers, Girl Guards, and Mighty Mites which also included having pizza and a sleepover for the older ones. Bridget did stay the night, but Stacia is still too young. When we got there the smaller slides for little kids was broken down, so I didn't know how Stacia was going to react. She happily played in the wave pool for almost 3 hours, smiling the entire time even when a wave knocked her down. She would occasionally get out and run around even finding life vests laying around which she kept trying to use as a hat. If there ever was a time I wished I had a waterproof camera this was it.
Big sister Bridget was finally tall enough to go in the tube slides that go outside the building and back in-she reported that it gets really dark when they do outside because there are no lights. Mom is taking her word on it because I am not going in one of those.
Due to it being so late we chose not to take Stacia back to the church for pizza since Bridget was able to get a ride with a friend who happens to have an extra child safety seat that fits Bridget. We did take her to Dairy Queen for some food-some chicken strips, applesauce, and a drink. We got her a mini blizzard for her treat but waited till we got home to eat it.
Ice cream that is one of her other loves, she could not get in her seat fast enough to enjoy her treat.
I am sure if you really wanted to make Stacia happy letting her soak in a nice bath with plenty of toys and giving her ice cream would do. I am thankful that she finds such pleasure in the simple things and that the little things bring such a smile to her face. Stacia is so undemanding for the most part. She loves to cuddle and will even indicate that she wants to crawl in my arms by tugging at me and saying be be be be which is her attempt at saying baby. She also says ma ma mum (mama or mom), baa baa (sheep), ba ba (bath), and occasionally banana or more correctly ba na na.

Updates from Stacia
I am really enjoying my Dynavox Maestro. I have even learned how to modify it myself. No my parents were not crazy enough to teach me that. I figured it out on my own. I like messing with settings on computers. I can move the tool bar around on the computer at home and have even learned how to make some of my mommy's favorite sites go really really small. Mommy is going batty with all my messing with the computers.
I am working on learning to use the potty, I can tell when I am wet I just need to figure out when I need to go. Mommy got me some new Happy Heiny's pocket trainers. They are so nice and soft on my bottom and come in really neat colors. It's nice being back in my fluff and the best part is no more having allergic reactions to the disposable training pants. Mommy says we will hang onto them for emergencies though since she was only able to get me 10 pairs-enough for 2-3 days between washes. Mommy was excited to get fluffy mail this afternoon. Once she showed them to me I proceeded to take off my pants and disposable training pants right in front of everyone.
We have a few temporary animals on our place. A family friend's cats are camping out in a camper trailer that was brought out. We are also fostering a couple of bunnies for the family while they go through a really tough time. My big sister Bridget is trying to show that she can be responsible for a temporary pet. She wants to convince Daddy that she needs to have a pet. Mom was already convinced before all this that we need a pet, but Daddy is not.
