Cleaning, Feeding & Standing

Megan has been sick since Sunday night.  She is doing better this morning so I have a few minutes to catch up.

A few days ago while she was playing in the living room I saw her cleaning up her books.  She has gotten so much better about cleaning up her toys but that was the first time I saw her do it without being prompted. Since then she has done it several times.

Yesterday she fed her baby doll without me doing it first.  She has been doing it for some time now but this was only the second time (I think, I haven't been getting a ton of sleep either) that she has done it without someone doing it first.  She just grabbed the bottle and fed her and then gave her some food on a spoon.  Her pretend play is really expanding and that is a great sign of maturing from her.

Since she has been sick I have been putting her in bed each morning so she can get some extra rest.  I am putting her down when she is at the point of only wanting to lay in the floor.  Amazingly once she hits her bed she gets this crazy burst of energy and has been spending almost her entire rest time standing up in her bed.  She is going from end to end, sometimes standing in the same spot for 5 minutes.
