Spring is coming!!

My little girl is 14 months old now. Ack! Mad is bigger than most her age and it makes her seem older than she is. I wish the tiny baby stuff lasted longer! Time is going too fast. She can almost walk now, too. She learned to pull up and stand and does it almost constantly. While visiting my granny at my Aunt Glo's, Mad also learned that she could climb! There is a single step going in to the living room. SHe spent almost the whole visit climbing up and down it.

To keep Mad occupied for a few minutes while I try to get things done (like change the garbage or feed the cats) I put music videos on the PC or I play movies she likes. Shes not a huge fan of TV, but there are a few movies she likes. The first was a Bollywood movie that I rented, Saawariya. Its a gorgeous movie with great music. I liked it a lot but Mad was mesmerized by it! I kept the Netflix movie so long that I eventually just bought it. She especially likes parts with an old woman, Lillian. She will giggle and smile and point and clap her hands. She loves her! But not as much as she used to. Shes getting bored with it. So Ive tried other movies to no avail. Shes just not that in to non musical, non animal stuff. So I rented Hairspray, thinking she might like the music. She was not impressed. Then I rented another Bollywood one and she likes the music parts, the rest she doesn't even look at. Om Shant Om is a wicked funny movie and nice to look at and a great story and I'm going to buy that one as well.

Im glad Mad is already liking things that are out of the norm. I doubt that there are many American babies who re exposed to foreign things. Heck, not many adults are either, for that matter. Not that Im any expert or anything. I just like to experience things beyond my own walls. To know a little about other people and ideas and sounds and music and everything. I hope she stays open to these things. People are people, they're all alike, no matter where they come from. We all want the same things (love, happiness, etc) no matter what we look like.

As for the music videos, Mad really like Vampire Weekend. I do too, thankfully, cause I hear them everyday! Almost every time I play A-Punk, she starts dancing. Its sooo cute! She also likes Beyonce's Single Ladies. But I think part of that is the video, she likes to watch people and the dancing is cool. She likes Beeker, too. Muppets rule! She loves Bing Crosby too, so Ive begun dloading some of him, too (White Christmas is one of the movies she really likes). She is mostly ho hum about the others I play like Dominic Frasca and Beck.

The weather is getting warmer all the time. I'm so glad!! I cant wait to get out there with Mad and play. Right now its super muddy and it will be for a while so I bought us rubber boots yesterday. Hers are wicked cute!! She doesn't like shoes at all so it will take some time to get her to wear em. But now, at least, she can put her feet on the ground if she wants. She likes to practice walking. I hold her hands and she can hike all over. I love it

Right now she is trying to crawl up in my lap, so I must go!

Heehee!!
