One of the best things about having kids is PLAY TIME! I’m always interested to see what games Jay and Rose (and Jeff) will invent next. Most of Jay’s games involve burrowing in heaps of blankets or peewing. Most of Rose’s games involve watching or copying whatever Jay wants to do. Most of Jeff’s games involve chasing, hiding, or growling. Most of my games involve reading library books, having dance parties, or inventing Sesame Street-Star Wars-Nutcracker sagas with all of the toys. For example: Obi Wan Kenobi fixes the Nutcracker’s broken jaw with the Force, and they go visit Hooper’s Store for some birthday cake with Elmo. Darth Vader crashes the party and a large battle ensues. You know, that kind of thing. Play time is our favorite!
We had FRIENDS over twice this week. What? Social? US?
Baleigh and Rose played happily with the play food and the dishes while Jay sat nearby telling them all about the Nutcracker and Star Wars.
My friend Janay and I recently started trying to get together for a “sewing day” once a month. Mostly we talk and laugh while our kids play, but some sewing has been known to happen along the way. It’s so pleasant to spend the day together. Jay, Rose, and Elsie brought up a PILE of toys for little Evelyn to play with. When Janay and I looked over, all we could see was Evelyn’s little foot kicking in the air. Can you spot the baby?
How about now? I wish you could see her face, because she is SO CUTE. I love babies.
I came home from my run on Saturday morning and found this hilarious scene. Jeff had his head under a blanket and he was saying “175…176…177…” counting while Jay and Rose tackled him and tried to get the blanket off of his head. When Jeff reached 200, he popped out and the kids squealed. Jeff said they were supposed to be hiding for hide and seek, so he kept counting till they went to hide. They were having too much fun attacking Daddy to go leave him and hide! Jay and Rose adore Saturdays because Daddy is HOME all day, and they get to watch cartoons with him, eat pancakes, and play. Roar!
