It’s back! And, yet again, I am one happy momma. Linnaea’s first exposure to the sport: watching my Red Wings trounce Pater’s Blues.

In other news, Linnaea’s really starting to develop good control of objects. Rough, jerky movements are giving way to slower, more deliberate motion!

The rattle has suddenly become a really interesting toy. It has transformed from a mere thing to a thing that can be sucked on, looked at, bonked on feet, and, wonder of wonders, shaken to produce noise! What fun!

One of these is my coffee scoop, the other my laundry powder scoop. Isn’t that wild? I suppose it’s slightly off-topic, but Linnaea does produce a lot of laundry, and this stuff actually reduces the flammability of children’s sleepwear. I’m so tickled with it, I feel compelled to tell the whole world. Go to the Charlie’s Soap website. I could go on and on (just ask my mom), but the website does a better job than I would.

Man. Does anybody else remember that scent? Linnaea got a new doll yesterday, and its face is made out of vinyl, imbued with the scent of vanilla. As is the magical ability of scent, it took me directly back to my childhood. I must have had at least one toy that smelled the exact same way. Mmmm. Linnaea seemed to like it, too, as she immediately grabbed the doll and slobbered all over its face.

Aside: She rather resembles a showy lady’s slipper, doesn’t she?
