Elsa's First Mischief.

I bought a brownie at Panera and hid it in my bag to eat when the kids were asleep.  I just DIDN'T want to divide it in thirds, and let's be honest, the kids would probably beg for most of it since they are as crazy for chocolate as I am.

I put DHH down for a nap and stopped by to check my email in the computer room.  EK was in the living room alone for less than five minutes - something that's not that ordinary since she can crawl and loves to play a little Find and Seek, crawling around until she sees us and then squeals.   I was expecting to see her little head pop into the doorway as I checked my email, but I didn't.

I heard some rustling, and went to investigate.

She'd gotten the brownie from my bag, from inside the plastic clamshell container it was in, and had devoured most of it.  The frosting was all over her clothes, my bag, and her face.

I said, "What are you doing?" and she started giggling.

I laughed and that made her laugh harder.

No photo on this activity... I spent the time tickling her and licking some of the chocolate off her precious cheeks instead!

Elsa has been sick for five days (which explains the lack of photo
emails from me), but today she ate a whole sweet potato and coughed
out most of the gunk in her lungs. I think she's getting better!

Project 52, Week 6

My kids think its hilarious to web chat while they are in the bath
tub. My parents were really amused by them, too.

(Some how I forgot to post this two weeks ago!)

Project 52, Week 8

DHHtakes on a different tone of voice and manners when he steps into
the role of his sister's teacher. He becomes straightforward, non
violent, and perhaps a bit bossy.

You'll never know dear, how much I love you.

Elsa crawls to my leg, tugs at my pants, and begs to be picked up a
few times each day. She is especially interested in whatever her
brother and I are doing at the kitchen table or what is cooking on the
stovetop. She peers down from her quiet perch on my hip. studying
the world she usually cannot see.

I did it- behind again!

On Saturday, Dan put away the small tub and worked hard to get the
bathtub in order for use. He replaced the drain that had broken and
scrubbed for nearly an hour.

The kids enjoyed the change and bathe together most nights.
