Moments I Love

The girls are getting easier and cuter (I didn't think the "cuter" part was possible, but these girls keep surprising me!).  I love that I don't have to pack a diaper bag everywhere we go, I just grab my purse, their sippy cups, and a snack and we're good!  I love watching their imaginations develop.  This week they were playing kitchen and I enjoyed watching them feed each other and feed their dolls.

I owe a lot to Mr. Potatohead.  He's amazing.  He keeps the girls entertained for at least 10 minutes at a time.  And he develops their manual manipulation and teaches body parts.  He's a keeper.

Janie thinks Mr. Potatohead's glasses are her glasses.  She wears them everyday, even though they are a very poor fit and pinch her little chubby face.  She is so funny.


I just love it when school supplies are dirt cheap!  I wasn't sure I wanted to get the girls paint, but I gave in and it hasn't been too messy.  And they paint beautiful paintings for our "art gallery."


I was "tickled pink" (ha-ha) that the girls wanted their nails painted to match mine.  They both sat perfectly still while I applied the paint and they waited until I told them the paint was dry.  They were so excited to show Jonathan their pretty toes.  And we have been admiring our feet in sandals all day.  This is why I love girls!!

Our week sounds identical: Mr. Potato Head, trying to squeeze his glasses on Lily, and painting toenails! It's like we must have girls the same age or something?!?!

It seems to be a universal need that all children have to try on Mr. Potatohead's glasses. My kids all did it. I even tried it--ouch!
