We didn't even get outside today and it turned out to be a pretty nice day. The kids and I had a long, but fun day together while Matt was in a golf tournament. I took a few pictures, as promised!
Eli, Cara, and Brady wanted to help me go and get Allison after her morning nap. I went to turn on her light, turned around, and here is what I saw...
They climbed right up and started talking to her! Don't worry, Brady did climb up and hold himself up there right after I took this picture. Allie LOVED all of this attention and was squealing. Can you imagine this type of wake up call?
Later in the day I couldn't find Cara, so I went looking for her in some of her favorite "hide outs." Eventually I found her in the living room, remote in hand (a no no in our house), and with a diaper on her head. Earlier in the day we had made a hat out of a clean diaper and took turns wearing it. I guess she wanted to play that game again and also look for some trouble while doing so. I couldn't possibly scold her while she looked like this. Coincidentally, this is also a great head-tilt picture for the eye doctor (she is looking about 8 feet away at the tv)
The kids had me laughing all day because they kept talking about Mugsy the clown (the wonderful lady who came to the Brady Bash). After a while I started calling each of them Mugsy instead of their name. They just giggled and giggled as I said, "Come on Mugsy, time for lunch." Later in the day, I told Cara, "Stop throwing toys Cara" and she quickly replied, "No mommy, Mugsy stop throwing toys!" Ha!
Happy weekend!
Well... I love the pictures and stories... those beautiful babies always put a smile on my face. I'm sorry mark and I could not make the celebration but you were in our thougths and prayers... trying to just catch up with lots of things. It sounds like a great time!!! I will be donating a lemon pound cake for the lemonade stand to add to your list. If there is anything else you need, let me know...
