Monday Movies!

When I was in fifth grade we each had to choose a Shel Silverstein poem to memorize and recite in front of the class. I picked "Too May Kids". The girls have recently been enjoying Mr. Silverstein's work and Beatrice has picked up on my favorite of his poems. Silliness abounds!

Beatrice was in rare form tonight!

Monday Movies!

One of Obie's sweetest little habits is his tendency to sing throughout the day. Mostly he sings the Bye-o Bye-o lullaby that I sing to him at nap times, but I've heard him hum other little ditties, too. It is just too adorable for words to have a singing toddler. The boy can barely talk, but he is a wonderful singer!

That's Beatrice in the background giving her two cents.

I also love that the first frame of this movie is Obie giving us his Harrison Ford half grin. What mama wouldn't love a boy who looks like Han Solo??

Obie has learned to slide and he loves it! All day long he stands at the door begging and pointing to go out to the playset! Grandpa fixed some handrails so that he can go down all by himself, but the girls still like to catch him at the bottom.

And you can, too!! Here's a link to an encouraging blog that's helped me to get my kitchen under control this week. It's not entirely under control and it won't be until all of my children are logical, responsible beings but the organization has been wonderful! If you want to get some organizing and cleaning done but don't know where to start, or need someone to support your efforts, check this out!
