If you have spent any time at all watching Dora the Explorer you know how great a backpack is! Emily spotted this Dora backpack a couple of weeks ago and put it on her "wish list," for Christmas. Santa needed to get her backpack early this year since it was on clearance! I decided that Emily was old enough to get herself out of my car by herself today. I unbuckled her seatbelt and told her to crawl out, I then walked to the front door. When I decided it was taking too long for her to get out, I went back to check on her. She was hanging over the back seat of my car pointing at the backpack. I tried the distraction technique with no luck. I told her I needed help getting the mail, even told her that she got some mail. No luck. She kept saying "my stuff is back there mom, open the back!" That is how Emily got her new Dora backpack. She thinks mommy was just nice and decided to pick it up for her. But I guess it all turned out okay after I saw how happy and excited she was. She has been loading up books and wheeling them around the house for hours now. Andy says she is an engineer student in training with all of those books in it. I think the bag is heavier than her. She even wobbles at times.
