Playing Chase
The main floor of our home seems to have a built in race track. You can go around in a loop between the entryway, living room, dining room and kitchen. Darcy loves running around and around and around and around...
Her favourite thing is if one of us is chasing her. She'll frequently say, "Let's play chase!" and begin running around the racetrack. Her big goal is to try to get past you.
This morning she was playing with Nick and he was running in front of her. She kept trying to get past him with no luck. Suddenly she said, "Daddy, wait for a minute." Nick dutifully stopped. When she got close to him she said, "I need to get past you." At this point she laughed like a maniac and blew right past him.
So it seems we've learned a valuable lesson in our house today: "If at first you don't succeed, cheat!"

I hear she likes Bare Bum Racing...
What a scammer!
Our kids do the same running loop, now that the baby gates are down. Luckily for us, we don't have to run. They have each other to chase.
You'll have that in a year or two!
Nice one. My motto is "Cheat every chance you get!"
