Around the house...

Someone was REALLY excited to have painted nails!

Two hours of uninterrupted play...Legos are AMAZING!

Welcome to Winter!

Just earlier this week, the kids and I were enjoying our afternoons in the park. The weather was so warm we didn't even have to wear our jackets which is completely unheard of for this time of year in Minnesota. Winter arrived with a vengeance while we slept last night and I know we won't be enjoying afternoons in the park for many months now. The snow (all 11 inches that fell on our part of the city) is actually quite beautiful so I can't say I mind it too much...ask me what I think about it a few months from now though! Graham and Amelia couldn't have been more thrilled with our fresh blanket of snow and I have a feeling they'll be thankful it's here to stick around for the season.

Story Time!

The kids disappeared immediately after dinner and things were very quiet which is highly unusual. We found them curled up together in Graham's chair reading a book. It's a very cute video clip, but it is over 2 minutes long so consider yourself warned. I should also add that Amelia is EXTREMELY proud of the crown she's wearing. She made it at school today and she hasn't taken it off since she woke up from her nap!

Back by popular demand...

In honor of those who were commenting on Graham and his life jacket situation...here it is! If I'm having a bad day or just need a laugh I watch this specific video clip. Even after all this time, I still laugh right along with Graham. Watch it-I dare you to at least not smile! :)

Trick-or-Treat!

Happy Halloween from T-Rex, Elephant, Afro Wonder Woman, and the 70's Disco Dada who happens to be behind the camera!

Halloween at school...

Graham had a Halloween party at school today and he was thrilled to wear his dinosaur costume out in public. There are 10 children in Graham's class but only a handful were willing to pose for pictures. Although Graham looks angry in this photo, I assure you he isn't. He's actually making what he calls his "t-rex face".

Amelia also had school today, but since her class is part of the public school district (Graham attends a Lutheran pre-school) costumes weren't encouraged since they could possibly be offensive to some (grrr....don't even get me started on this!). I couldn't possibly let a holiday pass by without dressing Amelia up in something though, so an orange tutu seemed like the perfectly appropriate option. :)
