Well Then

I walked up to my daughter tonight, carrying a fresh diaper and pajamas. She looked up and realized I was planning to get her ready for bed. So she tilted her head and gave me a look that made me feel like I was five, and she was my kindergarten teacher, and patiently (and a little bit condescendingly) said "nope."

Wristy Rolls

Not sure why I didn't blog yesterday, I just didn't. But here's what we've done the last couple days:

Painted with Lily. Then bought our own paint to do it at home too.

Took naps.

Made pumpkin cream cheese to have on bagels.

Posed for pictures that show our first teeth.

Just were awesome. Oh, and turned 6 months old.

Maintained sufficient bodyfat levels to sport well defined wrist rolls like this.

"Squissed"

We were relaxing in bed after dinner, and both boys fell asleep.

Paige kept trying to get Jess to "squish" her before he fell asleep. She was trying to get under his legs, and going "Squiss! Squiss!" Here she is, squished and happy about it, with her whisker remnants.

Earlier today, we were driving to see Lily, and Paige was wearing a bracelet. She got it off her wrist and was playing with it. After a while I heard her go "TA DA!" So I looked in the backseat and she had the bracelet undone, and each end was held between her toes. She was holding her feet up in the air so the bracelet was stretched out between them, and her arms up in the air, you know, in the traditional "Ta Da" pose.

Renaissance Festival

Cason was devouring this dinosaur tonight, like a kid at a renaissance festival, with those huge bird legs. Whatever kind of gigantic bird they're made from. That's all. Good evening.

8 Stacks and 20 Pounders

Today Paige made this tower, and came running to get me and show it to me. So proud.

She also made this face.

I THINK I felt Cason's 2nd tooth JUST starting to come through on the bottom, right next to his first one. Also, I hadn't weighed him in a while, so we did yesterday, and according to our scale, he's a 20.5 pounder now. But his appointment is next week, so we'll see then.

Dance Floor

Maybe you thought cutting mats were for cutting fabric.

Maybe you should think again.

Office Space

Veronica, Paige, and Lily formed a hair-styling train this morning.

Paige can run the dvd player entirely by herself. She's been able to for many months, but then we moved the usual one to our bedroom, and that one out to the living room, which threw her off for a while, with the buttons being in totally different places. But then she started to get the hang of it, and THEN we switched them on her again. Poor girl. But she's got it down now. We also have our movies in 2 cases, hers are in one, and ours are in the other. Tonight we were getting ready for a bible study and Paige asked me for some prunes. So I gave her a plate with a few of them, and a few minutes later we looked in the living room, and she'd set herself up to watch Office Space. Here she is waiting for it to start, with her plate o' prunes. Haha. We didn't let her watch it. She saw Rescuers Down Under instead.

Now that I look at this, she doesn't look as excited as you'd expect for such a funny movie. Thanks Skifter.
