Multi-tasking Mommy Maria

March 12, 2013
Just 'reading' some books and 'watching' Malan.

Oh, now my baby panda is hungry.
Better feed him.
Malan hasn't fallen off the bed yet. Check.

I can do this all at once.
Nursing panda. Check.
Reading book.  Check.
Keeping Malan from falling off the bed.  Check.


To remember: Maria is all about mommy things.  She pretends that she is pregnant (usually with twins name Sally and Nancy or made up silly names). She sings and reads and babbles to her 'babies.'  She even nurses her babies!  A LOT!  The part that just kills me is that she does it just like she has seen me feed her sister: one side then the other, some gentle rocking side to side, and usually some humming or shushing too.  She is all business and just does it on her own, because, "Well Mom, my babies are hungry!"
(Oh, and it was Crazy Hair Day at school bc of the Seuss week.)
