Whee!


Dr. Daphne

 
Daphne recently gave Abuelita a check-up with her
doctor's kit. Some toys will always be classics!
 

Puzzles

Tyler loves to work puzzles and has gotten pretty good at it. He has some normal size puzzles and a few 48-piece floor puzzles like this dinosaur one he worked recently.

Shark Attack

Our little streaker often takes off her pajamas while still in her crib. On this particular morning Daphne took off her pajamas after breakfast and paraded around the house in Tyler's shark slippers. When I let the kids pick out slippers to buy in the fall Daphne insisted on bunny slippers even though Tyler tried to convince her they should both get matching shark slippers. But why get your own shark slippers when you can have bunny slippers and steal your brother's shark slippers? Guess who mostly wears the shark slippers...

Love Songs

The other day in the car Tyler said, "I like this song. I like songs about love. I love you Mommy!"

So Many Best Friends

Tyler has about 10 best friends at school these days. According to his teachers he is quite popular with the boys. Apparently the other boys fight over who gets to play with Tyler, sit next to Tyler, etc. On the days Tyler is not at school apparently the other boys talk about how cool Tyler is, how fast he runs, etc. I hope it doesn't go to his head, but I am glad Tyler has made lots of "best" friends at his new school.
