Shunshy-y Day

"Huh?" You say?

Well, I finally added that word list I promised. You can get to it here. There's even a nifty little link back to this page so when you're done translating the title of this entry, you can come comment :).

These arrived at school today with a card that read "Sending you shunshy! Love, Ella and Britt". Nice!

Since it is Friday night, and we are such an exciting family, we headed off to Walmart earlier. While Ella and I were looking at curtains, Britt went to the next aisle over (but still in view) to look in sporting goods. Ella kept peeking around me, trying to play peek-a-boo with her dad. She got so mad when he wouldn't play peek-a-boo with her. He, of course, was oblivious to her game because he was surrounded by hunting equipment.

On a completely separate note, I was shopping at our school's spring Book Fair this week and found a "Dora goes to the doctor" book. I thought it might help us (meaning Ella) approach the whole 'doctor thing' with a little less threat. Apparently books about doctors and plastic toy vacuum cleaners fall into the same category--smaller versions of the big scary things we hate. I opened the book and read the first page. When I turned to the second page that shows the waiting room, she said, "No, no, NOOO," and jumped out of my lap.

Oh well. At least I got it on sale...
