Garrett washed Susan's quilt this morning. It was getting pretty dirty. We try substituting a piece of fabric with Dora the Explorer when she can't have Bebe. It's okay, but not the same. When he brought the real thing back a few minutes ago, we gave it some big sniffs, and she promptly fell asleep. She had been watching Sesame Street.

Here is our daily routine: Wake up between 6 and 9, milk, sometimes breakfast if she is hungry, play or go quilting, lunch about 11:45, nap 12:45 to 3 or so (sometimes less), snack, play or go to the library, fix dinner, eat, play, bath about 8, play, sit in Granpa's lap for milk, bed about 9. Sometimes we go to Amarillo to run errands. She likes to eat out for lunch. A few times we have

Pizza at Fazoli's
shared an ice cream at Braum's. That is her favorite thing to do. We go to the library a couple of times a week to get more videos. Our library has lots of Barney, Elmo, Dora, Rainbow Fish, and Little Bear. There are also a few Baby Einsteins. She watches a video when I cook and before bed.

Susan's language skills are improving. She's making 3- to 4-word sentences: I'm coming, I sit in yellow chair, I do it, I put on Dora shoes. I can't always understand what she is saying, put she seems to understand most of what we say.
