Everyone Loves Pasta

The Little Bean decided that her cut up spaghetti was not nearly as appetizing as my long messy spaghetti. You can see that she got her way and stole my spaghetti!



I think the imagination of the Little Bean is starting to develop as she has started to make things up and pretend a LOT! She likes to pretend to cry, or make us pretend to cry so she can rub our arm or back. She pretends that she is cold so she can get wrapped up with a blanket. She pretends to cook things in her little oven, and pretends to gobble it up. The only problem is that sometimes she wants the Puppy Bean to pretend too, and he just wants to chew up whatever she "cooked" rather than just pretend to do so.

She has also started to blame all messes and broken things on the Puppy Bean. She brought me a broken crayon today and told me that Dadoo (what she calls the Puppy Bean) had bitten the crayon and broken it. She also tried to blame a stain on her pajamas on Dadoo! Not sure how he could have done that with his teeth, but this is what she told me.

OH! And I was going through a bunch of papers yesterday and shredding lots of things. I let her put the papers into the shredder. She was such a good helper, UNTIL she started to put EVERYTHING in to the shredder. I finally had to turn the shredder off because I was afraid that she would shred something important.
