First thing when she got up (apparently), she played some Mario Kart because Norman had unlocked a thing for her last night after she went to bed.

Legos.

Got another new idea for how to trap and/or befriend the lizards in our backyard. This one involved building a lizard out of Duplos, so they would think it was a normal lizard like them, but she was stuck on how to "control the Duplos lizard without them noticing me". This Duplo lizard was so involved that it had a small bee charm on it's big red Duplo tongue. (Because they eat bugs, ya know.) She later took it outside and taped some leaves to it "so it will look even greener."

Played some more Mario Kart.

Invented a dance and a song to go with it where the lyrics are the instructions for the dance. It was quite vigorous.

Went to the park with Norman. There's this spinny thing there that is like the best cooperative play and negotiation teaching tool ever. Only two kids and get on it at once, and then they have to decide who's going to spin and how fast.

Played some Dinosaur Train games on her computer, but that was after trying to log into the Disney World website and set up dining reservations, during which this conversation happened:


More Mario Kart. So much. She's in that sweet spot where it's not too frustrating to play, but she doesn't care so much about the results, so she isn't upset that she always comes in last place.

We went through some more of that sign language book before bed.
