The things I catch the kids doing sometimes just makes me smile. Monday morning, the girls decided to start wrapping presents for each other. The girls got into my wrapping paper and tape, and went to town. I didn't realize they took pictures as well until I uploaded pictures onto my computer today. This was a fun reminder of their silly and fun personalities (here is one of many pictures that I found).
You didn't know we lived underwater? Neither did I... but I was wrong. It's a good thing Melanie was prepared with goggles and swimming arms!
Sunday morning was a good day for Santa Pancakes...
And watching Noelle eat them was hilarious! I'm not even sure how she got the strawberry jam *in* her nose. In fact, I'm not sure I want to know! ha!
After being sick literally all week (Monday through Thursday) it was fun to see them at their goofy selves again this afternoon. Noelle was having fun building tall tall towers out of dad's old QT cups. And Melanie was excited for the photo opportunity. We sent this one to dad at work!
Melanie asked if she could go out back to play (also a good sign that she was feeling better). I told her yes, but to get dressed. She came back like this:
It may be hard to see what the problem is... look closely at her pants. Yep! Those are Oliver's pants. They fit her just fine too, except the length was just not right. Too long for shorts, too short for knicker bockers.
If you are wondering where Oliver is in all these pictures... well, he was in my arms. My little man is extra snuggly when he is sick and has had a hard time letting me put him down. So, when I do put him down, I see this:
In fact, he got that horrible scratch/bruise on his eye chasing after me when I put him down to clean up Melanie (while she was sick) this week.
Let's just say, it has been an adventure. :) Good thing we still have a lot of reasons to smile! Happy Thursday!
