Popsicle Fruit

Two posts in one night, woohoo!  

Cason and Neely are really cute lately, they play so well together all day.  (Minus a few occasions when Neely raises her voice unnecessarily).  We've joked about her voice immodulation many a time anyway, and when she gets frustrated she turns into Jacob Silj.

She's said a lot of funny things lately, but one that comes to mind right now is when she told us "green popsicles are my favorite fruit."  Haha!

She and Cason help me with chores, and they take it very seriously.

Especially Cason-he will come to ME before I mention it and ask what chores he has that day.  He does them WELL too.  On Monday we clean the kitchen and his job is to wipe down the washer and dryer.  He gets a chair, and climbs up to wipe down the tops, and opens up the lids to clean the insides well too.  He's a hard workin' fella.

They like to draw together, and are both really into the Lego Ninjago show, so they have been drawing lots of related pictures.

I've been doing some of the work from the homeschool curriculum I used for Paige last year, and Neely likes to have an assignment too.  They get comfy and work away.

 

Neely will color and then tell me how "rainbowy" her pictures are.

Reed sleeps right through it.

 

We still love Paige too, I promise, but she's not as big into posing for pictures for me as she once was.  Ha.

 She is feeling pretty big these days, riding the bus, and getting to walk down to her friend Ivy's by herself once in a while after school.  (She hasn't noticed I spy on her while she walks "alone"-Ha!)
