Pretending

Bella is starting to "pretend". Most recently, she was pretending that she was making and drinking a smoothie (otherwise known as a "mooney"). While I am loading the dishwasher, she loves to take everything back out and play with it on the opened door. On this occasion, she grabbed the blender and set it out. She then looked around until she saw the blender lid on the counter...and then she pointed at it and said "that!". After she mixed her "mooney", she poured it out into the cup. She now needed something to drink it with...and she asked for a straw ("ssdraw"). She proceded to drink it with delight in her eyes and with a smile on her face.
