Sharing is caring- April 12, 2011

I am so proud of my daughter. At 5 months old Charlotte is already sharing. Isn’t that what we all learned on Sesame Street? (Or was it Care Bears? Whatever.) At mama-baby yoga class this weekend my polite little darling offered up one of the class’ organic, BPA -free, overpriced rattles to another baby. She pulled it straight from her slobbery little gums and gave it to another little yogi to suckle on. She is a giver.

The week-before-last I couldn’t help but notice Jackson had one of Charlotte’s pacifiers when I came to pick her up from school. The teachers had attempted to put her initials in Sharpie on it, but it had worn off from either Jackson’s saliva, or hers.

After spending two days last week with my generous little girl as she fought a fever, cough, and runny nose, I decided to invest in these…

I hope it’s not too-little-too late. This was what I saw when I got to daycare to pick her up today…

I’m all-of-the-sudden obsessed with Instagram.

That’s Charlotte in the swing in the lower right of your picture. (It was naptime, the lights were out.) Of the 5 babies in the class, she was the only one left. Jackson was the last one to leave before I came to get Charlotte. I hope he took Charlotte’s old paci with him. I’m no expert in infectious disease, but I figure personalized binkys can’t hurt.

I’m hoping I can teach her to keep her germs to herself so she doesn’t have more sick days. I don’t want her to end up missing 2 months of the 8th grade like I did. I got Mono from some boy. (Oh yeah, Mom, I totally got Mono from kissing a boy. Sorry.)
