Uh Oh

We haven't installed baby gates at our new place. The little guy is big enough to not need them and the baby hasn't tried to go up the stairs... until tonight.

Apparently she really wanted that kazoo.

We were THRILLED when the little guy figured out stairs. I guess this time we know what we're getting into. Look at how happy she is!

Because she followed this by climbing even higher and then standing there without holding on (WHAT?!!?), baby gates have moved to the top of our to-do list.

Say What?

So, this video is apparently THE BIG THING in pre-kindergarten. The other big thing is wearing your shirt backwards (reminds me of Kris Kross).

Back to the video-- it's amazing, and I love it. I'm thinking we could make some awesome family Halloween costumes from it, too. We were watching it tonight after dinner, and Eric filmed us. I'll go ahead and quote him here-- "Enjoy the amazing cinematography."

Official Family Photographer!

The little guy is still really into taking pictures. He snapped this adorable one of Eric and the baby yesterday.

He also took this amazing self portrait last night.

Sunday, Sunday...

The kids did this at the playground for a while without hurting each other (a miracle!).

We also snuggled and watched the Noles whup on Nevada.

Proud Daddy

A hand-me-down Cincinnati Reds onesie came to us in the mail yesterday, and baby girl wore it all day today. I even found a matching hair bow in my stash!

We went for a walk after dinner, but ended up chatting with some neighbors for a while. It got dark while we were still out-- kind of exciting! The little guy marched along with a maraca.

The baby fell asleep in her stroller.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Superhero!

All the kids at daycare have been wearing "capes" around school. They draw on sheets of paper and then tape the paper to their shoulders. I even saw a dad wearing a cape on his way home yesterday.

The little guy brought his cape home and wore it on our evening walk. It was hard to get a clear picture because the cape makes him run so fast!

Couscous, Take 2

Well, the baby enjoyed some couscous and chicken kebabs last night, just like her brother used to. This was a new recipe-- we're up to lemon-pepper in my A to Z challenge-- and it was pretty good!
