Common Occurences

I thought I'd just go through some of the things that happen all the time around here and although not at all new and exciting to me, they may be fun for you to know.

Most mornings that Luke goes to school, Sadie likes to go outside and see him off. The other two watch from the screen door just like this. Since the bus picks him up at the end of our driveway they can still see us and the bus when it comes. The hat, I'm happy to say, is NOT a common occurence!

Here Maia is playing all by herself (and almost always talking to herself) with the Polly Pockets. This is one of her favorite things. Sadie claims to love the Polly Pockets but it's Maia that plays with them all the time.

The girls love to dance. They have two songs that they put on (both classical...who'd have guessed?) that they then dance to. Sadie loves this the most but since she's usually the ring leader, the other two follow along and usually end up on the floor laughing. They have alot of fun!

This is Ashton and Elektra, the two kids that I watch a couple times a week. Ashton is Sadie's age and Elektra is Maia's age. Let's just say that Ashton and Sadie get along better than the other two. Honestly, I think it's good for Maia. She's becoming a bit spoiled already.

This is the nightly scene at our house. I think it started out that they would hide from us in all sorts of places but now it's just the closet...every night. So that's the game, run to the closet and when dad opens it run out screaming. Hey, whatever gets those girls to their room for bed I'm all for it!!
