Pique-A-Beau

Did you know? Peek-a-boo was originally French Pique-a-Beau, a signal used to indicate unhappiness with one's mate. Well, there certainly isn't any unhappiness around our home! Little Waverly makes sure of that.

Her favorite game is definitely peek-a-boo. She has it mastered and down to a science. She knows that her face needs to be hidden, rather by lifting a jacket or toy in front of her face or hiding in the pillow.


She knows that we are still right there, watching her and waiting. If you listen, you can hear her giggle in preparation for the pop-up surprise! She will wait a few seconds... long enough of a pause that you may think she has forgotten the game... and then...


Peek-a-boo!
What a little charmer! She has the biggest grin, knowing that her playmate will respond with those magic works, Peek-a-boo!

Just can't get enough!


Mamaw Gail giving Waverly some cuddles!


Who me?

I've been informed that Waverly is a little instigator at day care. Ms. Sandra was telling me just the other day how Waverly likes to scoot over to the other children and play. She will get their attention with a tug on their pants leg or a yank of their hair. When they retaliate though, she gets mad! She doesn't like for anyone to tug on her short sleeve!
Gee... I just don't know where she gets that from...*ahem, Daddy!*
Waverly loves all her little friends though. She is a sympathy crier and will begin to whine and fuss whenever one of her friends is upset. She has two little boys in her class. I wonder if she plays "pique-a-beau" with them?
She can be a little flirt, that's for sure!

Down and Dirty!


Waverly likes to play for a little while after dinner. Last night, she wouldn't even let Mommy clean her face before taking off for the toy basket. Silly girl!
