Jumpin' Rope

Someone on Clifford must have been jumping rope recently because it is all the rage at our house today. I'm not silly enough as a Mommy to give the child free rein with rope & hard handles, so she steals my tape measure to try and do her thing. It doesn't work. On so many levels. Amiya thinks that jumping rope is really all about standing on the rope and jumping up and down. For that, a measuring tape is fantastic because it's so thin and flat that it doesn't hurt her little tootsies. Check out her super girl smile here - she thinks she's got it down! And don't be too envious of her stylin' PJs. They are hand-me-downs from a cousin of mine and about as worn as worn can be. But, there is nothing so cuddly for a two-year-old as going to bed with Elmo and Zoe on your tummy and your bottom! If we tell her to go get her PJs we're pretty sure that these are what we'll see 9 times outta 10!
