Something Old, Something New

You'd think when a child has been in a crib for several hours, the first thing she'd want you to do when you open the door is get her out as fast as possible. Well, not this little girl.

She'd rather stay inside and indicate which toys you are to load in with her. She doesn't actually play with them - she just likes having a couple dozen in there with her. Hey, whatever floats your little boat, Joy.

As Joy continually learns new (and sometimes unfathomable) games, some things remain the same. For example, she still loves holding random objects in her hands while she goes on walks. They may be a rattle and a Kleenex packet (gleefully modeled above), or just sticks and pebbles she finds while she's exploring. Funny little girl.

Dylan has started doing the same thing in the morning when I go to get him. I am always surprised that he will scream if I try to free him from his night-time prison!

Oh and I love those pants she is wearing on the walk! Joy is just the cutest!

Wow! Sofia has been in a twin bed now for 4 months. She did not care for the crib. But, she does do the same thing that Joy does, whenever we go somewhere to play or walk, she has to have her stuff in her hand. LOL. Cute.

aidan MUST collect every bit of nature he can get his hands on while outside ... generally leaves and sticks, but sometimes dried earthworms that look like sticks ... and if he finds rocks and i try to take them away he "hides" them in his mouth thinkin' he's sooooo sneaky. kids are funny!!
