Today was another fairly average day. Tessa and I went to Narrow Neck beach and played on the slide, swings, watch some dogs play in the water and some people swim as well. We came home, she went down for a nap and I tidied the house, hung out the washing and baked some cookies for Julia's book club. She was having the meeting here tonight, and apparently the do dessert pretty big during book club meetings! She brought home some NZ cake/dessert thing, or the ingredients to prepare it. I'm forgetting the name now but she said, like we have pumpkin pie, NZ has this. I'll probably try some tomorrow but by 10:30 I wasn't too hungry so I didn't try any tonight.
Tessa answered the TV today! Libby turned on her program when she got home from school, with hosts that ask questions about the things they are doing and start the show with "Hi, how are you today?" And Tessa right away relied, "good!" Libby and I laughed and she smiled, half knowing what she did was cute because it was silly, and half still thinking the guy on the TV heard her respond...she has also newly discovered the word "mine" and uses it quite frequently now anytime anything new lands in her hands, and sometimes even if she just wants it be hers. Slowly but surely, she is learning what it means to be a 2-yr-old!
