Camera Shy






Anyone who knows our children and their personalities understands that our boy Adrien loves to eat. Well, today we decided to take some pictures of him as he ate lunch. He wears no clothes, at least no tops during this "feeding" time because it saves us a butt load of laundry. Well as it turns out, our mister man was uncharacteristically shy and continuously kept turning away from the camera as he ate. It was very cute, because Adrien, who is typically a ham for the camera, was reluctant to have his picture taken while he enjoyed his lunch.

Movie Night

Tonight we watched mommy's favorite movie growing up, "Little Nemo in Slumberland". We took all of the pillows and blankets off of mommy and daddy's beds and the kids silkys and we all snuggled on the floor. Adrien was excited by the movie and enjoyed having all of us out on the floor-- mostly to climb and jump on. Lily was very glued to the movie and appreciated the suspense and thrill of the film. It was jam packed with dragons and "monsters" and dinosaurs and fun things kids dream about like flying with butterflies and bouncing on balls in the clouds. They loved it! And it was a good one to reminisce to.

Clothes, Soap, Dogs, Mermaids, Food and the Color Pink

We wouldn't normally bore everyone by posting a ton of photos of the kids while they take baths but, Adrien decided he couldn't contain himself and jumped into the water with his clothes on. We also, bought some fun soap to try on the kids and see if they enjoyed it. Adrien loved it... he of course had to try it out and continued to EAT the soap until we rinsed it off. Unfortunately there are no photos of Lily and the soap because she kept squealing and saying "No, gross!" and because we are so nice ;)we thought we would not make her cry. The soap then, turned the water pink and Lily, in Lily fashion, pretended to be Ariel and simultaneously a dog drinking from a water bowl, as shown in a couple pictures.

We also took a few more pictures of little Bijoux and thought, because she is so small still that family might enjoy seeing her; as she does grow so fast.

Bath time is Play time









Sometimes when it has been a long day we plead with the kids to go to bed. Often the reason they agree to head to bed peacefully is because the next morning they can play with the bath art supplies. The creation of crayons and paint made especially for the bath is fantabular! (thanks grandma) The kids get to play and express themselves while bathing and we are fortunate enough to have an extremely easy clean up after their art projects-- and we get to snicker at Adrien while he LICKS the paint off the wall, Yummy; and watch Lily as she swims like a "mermaid" and rescues Prince Eric.
