Aviana is sound asleep. She can barely hold still, even while slumbering.

Winter time uses for pool noodle: We also limboed–todler style, did a marching game, and balanced it. Fun for all (and an energy burner to boot, which is always a plus.)
A ploy for a bath: Really. I was obviously not supervising as well as needed, and she painted herself because she wanted to take a bath. Luckily, the power had come back on by that point and I could give her one.
We can so relate to “pool noodle playing.” We never use them for what they are made for. The kids laughed when they saw you & Aviana talking & listening through them – my kids do that in their bunk beds at night. One use you missed — sword fighting!
