Zion has a new bedtime routine and it is very easy to get her to sleep now that she is a big kid. She has her bath and then a sneaks in a little more playtime with her dad and maybe a story or two. She has a drink of water while we do devotions with her. We have this cute devotion book we got her for Christmas and it has a verse for each day and a short little story/poem that is just right for her attention span. Then we pray with her while she says Amen the whole time (possibly the cutest thing ever in the whole world). She then brushes her teeth which she is doing quite well now ( and she keeps getting new ones to brush, those mollars were rough!). Then her Dad carries her through the house and she turns off all the light switches. He gives her a hug and lays her down. She snuggles her duck Puddles and drifts right off to sleep. What a change from the old days where we had to work hard to get her to sleep.
One of her new favorite things is coloring. Today she worked on coloring fish that we are going to turn into a mobile.
This is her new play corner. We rearranged the living room so she had her own spot to play (ie make a mess). As you can tell she was very excited (and cute).
Lounging in her spot. She can play and watch the ducks and turtles outside and lounge when she needs a rest. Speaking of rest I am off to bed myself. Goodnight!
