Since the weather has been getting nicer, we took Vivien’s
pedal bike out this month. She probably
could have ridden it last year, but neither she nor Ryder wanted to move up to
the next bike. She was happy on her push
bike, so that’s what she stuck with.
This year we convinced her to give the pedal bike a try and after a
couple of lessons, she was riding up and down the street with Ryder! They had to learn to share the road in a
different way, especially as Vivien was building up her skills, but it all
worked out and she’s cruising now!
This month we went swimming at the Marina pool a couple of
times and Vivien loves the water. She’s
not quite ready for swim stroke swimming, but she does a great job keeping her
head above the water, moving around from one spot where she can hold on to
another and she has no fear of jumping in.
She was jumping in of the side of the pool and also asking me to throw
her and then catch her. Both of those involve
her plunging under the water and she’s totally ok with that; in fact she loves
it!
Vivien found a new show to watch on Netflix this month. She mostly gravitates towards the shows with
cool looking girls in the preview, but luckily she is pretty picky about the plot. Some of the shows are completely ridiculous,
and she usually asks me to turn them off or change them. This month, she found Lolirock, which is only
a little ridiculous. It’s about teenage
girls who become pop stars but are really princesses from other planets who
have to fight against evil to get back to their home planets. Vivi loves when they change into their
super-hero princess outfits and when they have concerts. It’s really cute to watch her watch the show.
Vivi loved being home for April vacation and definitely wasn’t
quite ready to go back at the end. She
seems to like school, so I’m not sure of the exact reason, if it’s the freedom
of home, or the extra fun of vacations or just that she loves to be with Mommy. She always wants to do everything that I do
and she only wants to hug and kiss and cuddle with me, and unfortunately, I’m the
only one who can do anything right according to her, so she wants me to do
everything!
