Looking For Treasure

This morning Paige wanted to draw while I was having breakfast. She showed it to me after she finished, and pointed out the "x" and "the pond". Eventually I realized she'd drawn a map. I was right, because a few minutes later she wanted to play pirates with me. So we used our toy bins as a ship, and sat on them, rowing.
The red box was the treasure we sought, so I don't know why we were searching, since it was on our ship the whole time. But she had fun, so...mission accomplished.

We also set up my step stools, to be our plank, and then made Cason walk it, which he did happily.
Paige was looking closely at the map at one point...
...and I heard her muttering "'ccording to the map..." Haha. It was awesome. I go "Paige, did you just say 'according to the map'?" She looked at me all calmly and said "Yeah." like it's totally normal. So funny. There are lots of things she probably gets from me that I have no idea I even say. But I doubt "according to the map" is one of those. It must be from Dora.

Oh, and last night she goes "MAMA! Look at THIS trick."

According to the map. Cutest thing ever! I ♥ your blog! You are such a cool mom to go sailing around looking for treasure that was on the ship all along.
