I recently discovered something that is helping me with the more academic requirements in ADF’s advanced study programs. Bee is capable of eating finger foods so, sometimes, in the evening, I’ll put her in her highchair, give her some organic baby rice cakes, puffs, or fruit, and let her have at it. Meanwhile, I sit at the table next to her with a cup of tea, some reading materials, and notes. Sometimes I even read bits aloud for her which she finds entertaining.
Sure, I only get to read a few pages at a time, but it’s better than nothing! Here I go, as fast as a speeding oak!

I hadn’t considered that. Puffs and reading is something I will definitely have to try. I’ve kind of stagnated in my studies and I’m starting to get the itch to start back up again.
Yeah… I go in spurts. This latest discovery may help me get back on track! She’s going through her needy phase, which I’m sure your little one is also experiencing. So that makes things extra hard. As long as she is occupied and near me, she is happy. Otherwise… I have trouble stepping away to take a shower or use the bathroom on my own!
