We are having tea at Tea Chai Té.
Immi just got those *vintage* my little ponies at Knittn Kitten the thrift craft supply shop. They look like they are from 90′s (I think that they are cuter and made of better plastic…). Anyhow immi loves them.
Immi enjoys scooting around on her big pink pony quite often. (The pony also makes a nice pillow for napping on…)
Immi is asking me to pop the door back on her toy. This thing keeps coming off because immi wants to make ALL the ponies go through it to get them inside the teapot palace. She also makes them all take the stairs if the toy has one (instead of just levitating) when they want to go to the second level.
Immi wants to take the entire pony village and the tea set somewhere. But when I told her that she has to play with them in her room, she got really mad.
…as it turns out, she wanted them in the bedroom because that’s where the tub of tiny pony accessories are that I usuallty keep out of her reach. So we just brought that into her room and then she was perectly happy with the arrangement.
Immi put some shoes and a shirt on her pony. Then immi took her to the mirror so that the pony can see her reflection. …Apparently she was being dressed up because she is going out in the big blue jeep!
Immi has been saying more words. Some of her new words are “gummi!” (she likes peach flavored pink ones), “hot!!” (she tells me so if the food is sizzling or otherwise steamy, and if the water from the faucet is a bit hot), “shoes” and “hat”.
Immi wants salt sprinkled on everything. The rule is that I have to do it for her (…so that I can pretend to sprinkle it on without actually adding anymore salt in her food!). I have accidentally left it with her within her reach and had to clean up entire content of sea salt in the shaker off everything.
Immi still loves Doraemon (the Japanese TV cartoon) a lot. She loves the song and I see her immitating things they do in various episodes. She also enjoys watching My Little Ponies, Hello Kitty, and Strawberry Shorcake. Most of these are from 80′s because they happen to be available for purchase for about $5. We rented one of Dora the Explore dvd, and Immi didn’t like it at all! Only thing she wanted to do with it was to turn it off…
I definitely hear Immi mixing some Japanese in her babble/language. This would definitely be because of Doraemon. Though I do read her Japanese picture books sometimes.
Immi enjoys singing. She sings often when she hears songs she likes. Immi sings almost exclusively in “ahhhh”s. Honestly it’s so badly out of tune that I think it’s cute and wish she’d never get better. But she has been getting much better lately (more tones are more harmonius with the music she is singing to).
Immi loves giving us massages. She likes to pretend to put lotions on her hands (pretend-soap that look like massage bar like the ones we like, or an actual hand lotion) and give us a rub.
Immi has been rubbing/patting my belly. I’m not sure that she knows there is someone in there. She could just be noting that it feels different…
That’s a lot of words so here’s a picture of immi playing with her ponies. She wanted me to help her put the faery wings on.
We got this big pony immi wanted a while back because it was on sale! Immi of course loves her and she rides around everywhere.
Immi and her daddy are playing Galaga. Todd finally had a chance to get the Nintendo (NES!!) setup and working. Immi has a controller too but I didn’t plug that one in…so she just thinks she is playing:)
Immi is playing with her tiny ponies.
She is setting up for a tea party!
…and pouring tiny cup of tea from a tiny teapot!
We got this series of toys about half a year ago since none of her age appropriate toys seemed to be challenging her fine motor skills (she was able to pick up lint almost as soon as she learned pincer grasp!) (ok, the real reason why we got these is that immi loves small cute things…). Anyhow, it’s fun to watch her play with these miniature things now that she really understands what they represent, and spends quite a while engaged in a pretend-play.
