Bed without dinner.

Leia had to go to bed tonight without dinner. *hmph*
She refused to eat what we offered her, fish and potatoes. She would start eating and then spit it out, so we decided that it was by choice - for whatever reason, not necessarily because she didn't like it. And definitely not because she wasn't hungry.

So she got to sit and watch Mamma and Pappa finish dinner, and then she had her bath. Then she had her välling like normal.. :P So she didn't go to bed on an empty stomach - she just wasn't given a replacement for the dinner she didn't want to eat.

Harsh on a 17 month old??
We didn't think so.

Fredrik is deathly afraid she will start eating like him: which means no veggies or fruits. So he is determined to make her learn to eat what she is given. Although getting her to eat veggies is NOT a problem. She loves them!

She did however ask for a "nana" after she refused to eat her fish. So...
We told her she wasn't allowed to have a "nana."

Fredrik has a work meeting tomorrow - in some town by the coast, a couple of hours away. So we don't know when he will be home tomorrow evening. And then we have Leia's daycare meeting on Thursday evening.

Not much happening around here. :/

We found out today that they have raised the price/cost for daycare in Åmål. What a difference a few tenths of a decimal can make...... :/ :)
They raised it from 2,6% to 3,0%. Which is a big difference, especially after Fredrik's raise this Winter. But we're still paying .. what? like 10% of what the average daycare costs in the US....

Leia loves playing dress-up. But she has to wear ALL of her dress-up clothes at the same time. 3 tops and 3 skirts. *sigh* :)

We think she has been saying her first sentence. :)
"Va gör du?" (What are you doing?)
But it sounds more like:
"Va gör det?" (What is it doing?)

We aren't sure which one she is saying, but she responds more to "Vad gör det?".
She definitely says it with a rise at the end of the sentence, it is definitely a question.

It will be interesting to see if that becomes her first phrase/sentence.
