Nap Time Shenanigans

Maybe it's the new "summer" bedtime, or the threatening teeth just below her gums. Maybe she's just sick of people knocking outside her window during nap time. Maybe she just needs her beauty sleep. Whatever the reason, Miss Moo is requiring more sleep than B lately. Sometimes it manifests in an early bedtime, sometimes an extra early afternoon nap. The past few days this has left me with some uninterrupted alone time with her twin.

Honestly, it's weird to just have one at a time. I feel myself looking for her (even though I know she's in bed) and I sense B doing the same. It's fun to play with Ben alone though. He wanders inside and outside, asking questions and looking for reassurance about what we are or aren't doing.

"No outside?"

"No car?"

"No treats?"

"No Mia?"

"No car?"

"No drink?"

I think it's his little way of asking for things too. When I reassure him that he may have a drink or go outside, he does this adorable little tushy shake and smiles the biggest grin. It's tough to capture it's cuteness on camera-- pictures just doesn't do it justice. I won't even try.

Such a Copy Cat

Yet again, here I am stealing Theresa's ideas! I knew from the second that I saw T's new blog that I had to have one of my own. It's really pushed me to take lots of pictures, which is a great thing. I love the idea of using Blurb to turn it into a scrapbook later too. So, if you get a chance, click HERE to check out my project 365 photoblog.

Our New Thing


In our cutest stage yet (and of course, I'm not biased), the kids have started hugging each other randomly throughout the day. This occurs after time outs, when you ask them to say they're sorry, but also sporadically and unprompted. Enough to melt this Mumma's heart, that's for sure!
Each hug is followed, of course, by a kiss. Ben always insists and, luckily, Mia usually obliges. We won't tell them when they're older that they were open mouth kisses. :)
