On Friday night, we went out for Korean food, one of my favorites after Indian food (and Thai food, too). Olivia wasn't too thrilled with most of the food, but she loved the rice. She decided she wanted to be like us and use chopsticks. I was amazed at how well she did just by watching us. She held them mostly correctly and was able to pick up rice with them!



She is the coolest little girl. I can't get over how much fun it is having a toddler. Today we waited in a cramped waiting room for almost 3 hours while I got new brakes and she made friends with everyone. She even climbed up on a few people who paid her extra attention, and they assured me it was fine.
Lately, bathtime is her favorite, but she scares me sometimes because she likes to lay on her back. We always watch her, but I'm scared she'll get a mouthful of water.

See how nicely the bubbles cover parts I don't want on the internet? BTW, we add Aveno wash to her water. Bubble bath can give little girls infections.
Oh, and I have to add this one in there. Tonight I made Mutter Paneer (peas and cheese cubes in a curry sauce). Yum! I feel so proud. Most things I make these days are either frozen or come from a box. *sigh*

I have to get my car's oil changed soon ~ maybe tomorrow ~ and I hope that the kids will have good behavior while we're waiting! :) Wow, that is *so* impressive about the chopsticks. She's better at it than I am! :) I've never tried that Aveeno wash. It always looks *so* soothing, though. Right now, I'm using the vapor baby wash because they both have colds. :(

Thanks for the tip on the bubble bath. I've never been a bath person just for that reason.
