Getting Dressed


Getting her and myself ready in the morning has been very challenging. The first thing I do is make her a banana soy milk shake and give it to her in her sippy cup. She drinks it and just hangs around me on the kitchen floor while I make her breakfast and pack her lunch with some snacks for daycare. I also make her fresh fruit and veggi juice for a mid-morning snack. So, if I take too long, she starts to get bored and holds on to my legs, attempting to climb into my arms. I have to say feeding has gotten a lot easier though. She loves to feed herself and actually refuses when I do it. The downside is that it takes forever when she does it, but it gives me time to grab a bite. Then, washing her face and hands and getting her dressed is the next most challenging part. She loves being naked so when I undress her pjs, she runs away from me. The best solution so far has been turning on the TV. Something about those Wiggles guys can grab Chloe's attention right away and she becomes easier to maneuver.
