Mother Goose on the Loose!

Addie Kate enjoyed her first storytime at the library last week! Wednesday mornings a very special lady, Ms. Donna, does story time for a huge bunch of 0-24 month olds. Whew! She is fabulous though and does a fantastic job with these children. I could definitely tell which children have been coming to Mother Goose on the Loose for a while, and they all just love Ms. Donna! Like I said, there was a huge bunch of children, most running around all over the place, followed by mamas or grandmothers running after them. So, I thought that would scare my sweet Addie - NO! She would crawl right out in the middle of them, which terrified me - I didn't want her to get trampled! It is also quite loud in there - the kids alone are loud, but story time itself is loud (possibly to get over the kids?). Again, I thought that would scare Addie - she does NOT like loud noises/sounds/people (although she's quite loud herself!), but she loved every minute of it - the motions, the songs, the movement, the dancing, all of it! I have a few pictures to share with you, but there aren't many because this story time involved mom too! We will be going back this Wednesday, but then Addie's babysitter will be taking her, not mommy! Oh well, at least she'll enjoy it either way!

Before it started - she was just staring around in amazement!

Tried to get a picture of her ringing the bell (in her hand) to one of the songs.

Look at that - NO FEAR! And so many of you thought she was attached to my hip!

I guess storytime worked its magic - check out this sleeping position for her nap later that day:

Yes, she is completely, literally, doubled-over. It pained me to see this, but do we touch a sleeping baby?
