Thursday, January 21, 2010. What do you want to be when you grow up? Today Astrid was telling me what she wanted to be when she grows up. Astrid: "I want to be a Yoga teacher, a classroom teacher, and a mom.". Me: "What happened to wanting to be a Veterinarian? Astrid: "Oh yeah. That too.". Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

We Love Astrid: Sleeping in her own bed
http://babyastrid.blogspot.com/2009/11/sleeping-in-her-own-bed.html
Tuesday, November 24, 2009. Sleeping in her own bed. Tonight as I was trying to sneak out of Astrid's bedroom she said to me, "Goodnight Mom. I'll see you in the morning. Can you turn the light off? Oh my gosh, my daughter is a big girl now! When she was born both U. and I agreed that we didn't want a baby sleeping with us in our bed. We'd heard horror stories from friends and didn't want that for ourselves. And I sing to her which I've done since she was a newborn. Keeping my fingers crossed that this s...

We Love Astrid: Angel
http://babyastrid.blogspot.com/2009/11/angel.html
Friday, November 13, 2009. From the back seat of the car, Astrid explained to me that there were Tooth Fairies around Santa Claus. I had no clue what she was talking about until I noticed she was staring at an Advent calendar that we bought from the German market, and there were creatures with wings around Santa. She kept asking me if they were tooth fairies, holding the Advent calendar up so I could see it in the rear view mirror. Me: "Who lost a tooth? Astrid: "I don't know.". Astrid: "Oh yeah.". Astri...

We Love Astrid: Astrid is learning to spell & read
http://babyastrid.blogspot.com/2010/07/astrid-is-learning-to-spell-read.html
Thursday, July 15, 2010. Astrid is learning to spell and read. How do you spell. U shared with me tonight that Astrid was being clever, asking him how to spell Dragon Tales. I know she wanted the spelling so she would look it up on the iPad. She's sneaky like that and I love it.". Not bad for a 5 year old. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

We Love Astrid: Family TV watching
http://babyastrid.blogspot.com/2009/11/family-tv-watching.html
Friday, November 13, 2009. I'm not a bit proponent of TV. I'd much rather Astrid be painting, or doing a puzzle, or playing - than watching the boob tube. In fact I did not allow her to watch any TV before the age of 2. Even though those Baby Einstein DVD's. Were all the rage. And even after we rationed and heavily censored the shows we did allow her to watch. We made sure they were educational shows like Sesame Street, more geared towards her age on PBS with no commercials. Tonight's episode, one of the...

We Love Astrid: Cat has 2 T's?
http://babyastrid.blogspot.com/2010/03/cat-has-2-ts.html
Monday, March 01, 2010. Cat has 2 T's? Tonight Astrid (aka my 4 yr old spelling bee queen) was adamant that the word "cat" has two T's. I heard her arguing with her dad and getting so frustrated that she came upstairs to tell me Papa was not listening to her. So she said, " Yes! And I was happy that she's at an age where she can show me exactly what she's talking about. Rather than having a tantrum she can explain it to me in a different way to make me understand what she's trying to say. Cat has 2 Ts?

We Love Astrid: Deep thoughts by a 5 year old
http://babyastrid.blogspot.com/2010/06/deep-thoughts-by-5-year-old.html
Thursday, June 03, 2010. Deep thoughts by a 5 year old. After dinner tonight Astrid announced that she no longer wanted to be a mom and here is the conversation that ensued:. Astrid: I changed my mind; I don't want to be a mom. Astrid: I want to be a Veterinarian instead. Me: You can be a mom and a Veterinarian. Astrid: Are you sure? Me: Yes, you can be both. And I definitely want grand kids. Me: (laughing) Yes, of course. You're already thinking about that? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

We Love Astrid: Kid's Yoga Class
http://babyastrid.blogspot.com/2010/01/kids-yoga-class.html
Saturday, January 30, 2010. A few weeks ago Astrid started taking an hour long kid's Yoga class every Sunday. I've been practicing Yoga for a few years and Astrid likes to stretch with me "Let's do Yoga together mom! Astrid at 4 1/2 is the youngest kid in the class but she holds her own - by listening to the instructor, following instructions and just soaking it all up like a sponge. And she learned a new mantra - "I am calm. I am at peace. I am focused.". Shes certainly a busy little girl :). A blog awa...
