little people



We were at Wal-Mart looking in the little girl clothing section and we saw a shirt with a dwarf sitting on a mushroom. Abbi was the first to notice it and said, "Santa's goin potty! I go potty too!" It was so hilarious!

Sunday, Alona had a part in her primary program here. I could hear her! From half way back in the chapel. She was her cute self, she knew all of the words, she layed her hands on top of each other and rested her head on them and sang that way for a while. Marta and Kelly came to watch her. It was great to have support. Paul has an appointment with a sleep specialist, I hope they can figure this out.
Marta brought their costumes that she made for them. Cutest little pirate costumes, can't buy nothing like them in the stores. They already have swords and eye patches to go along with it.
Tuesday we went to the library. We made it in time for the toddler story time, but missed Alona's story time. She was deeply saddened. We will try for that one tomorrow. Toddler story time was the letter E. They flew on their magic carpets to Egypt and the played with puppets monkey's teased a crocodile, "You can't catch me" they would say and the crocodile came along and sneezed and each monkey one at a time flew into the crowd of children. Alona was asking very earnestly for them to throw her a monkey, she was in tears when they didn't.
Kacen had a lot of fun with the bins of books. They have the baby and toddler books in this cubby holes that are all lined up in a row. He would take each book from one cubby hole one at a time and put them in the one next to it until he had emptied it out. So darn cute and fun to watch.


Climbing up hill. I was trying to catch a video of Kacen pushing the tricycle around. And I got it, this one is of him is going up hill with Alona's help and encouragement. She loves to help him with things.
Pizza, Kacen's first pizza without cutting it up, he really enjoyed folding it in half and eating it. On Friday I searched out a new wardrobe JC Penney, D.I., Walmart. I found that JC Penney is cheaper than Walmart and well D.I. didn't have much to offer. I found two shirts at D.I. and so I went back to JC Penney, ran in and grabbed him a wardrobe. A warm all fleece pj's 3 long sleeve onesie's, three shirts, an insulated rain suit, a jacket, two outfits with pants, one is a really cute hoodie. Yes children can be expensive, children are worth it, children need you. And they are so cute in clothes. More post with Kacen in his new wardrobe to come. He is wearing a new onesie in these. We were playing with little people while dad and sisters were gone, he was playing with the lion who knows if it was mom going rarr or the button making that sound. Shortly after he goes roarr!
Abbi is a darling cute little girl. She loves this bike to death and brought it out on the grass and was riding it around like it was her very own galloping horse. I threw the boomerang and she and her horse went after it! Dun, Dun, Dun, Dun, Dun, Dun,Dun, Dun Dun!

I love our cute little family. Our kids are developing their individual personalities that make them special and I love it. I appreciate all that you do for us, and how you are always there. I wish I could be more like you! I can't believe I was up until 5:20 A.M. this morning trying to sleep!!! thats just insane after taking my medication too!

Your first videos are great! But then with such wonderful subjects you couldn't do it wrong. I love Abbi's exuberance such a fun girl! Kacen is really growing up so fast, a smart smart boy in his spatial awareness. It sure was fun seeing them enjoy their costumes last Sunday. Alona was so darn cute singing to her mommy and all. What I would have given to snap a pic of her! She was so animated and joyful singing her primary songs!
Beautiful children!

Kudos! to Big Sister Alona helping Kacen climb Mount Everest as it were!
How fun is that?
Were any of you my children really that small and so fearless?
My how time oft' eludes to the past, times not forgotten but restored anew in my grandchildren.
