The kids were pretending to sleep and covering themselves up with all the blankets. Cooper said, "Night night time!" I had to be quick with the camera because Mia would only lay for a few seconds and she said, "Time to get up! The sun's up!!"
Cooper was crawling out of the big box and I'm not sure exactly what happened, but he was howling. I think he may have gotten "high-centered" on the way out. Ouch! Mia was in the chair and had seen it so I asked her. She said, "I don't know! It's not my fault!!" Ha ha ha! (Now that's a first! I guess she was happy this incident couldn't be pinned on her!)
This morning Mia said, "My baby Layla's going to come to your house Gary!! Are you so excited!?! I'm so excited too!!" (Of course she never gave me time to give my answer, but yes Mia, I'm excited too!) She's been getting some practice being a big sister here with both Elliott and Sophie. This morning she was standing in front of Elliott with her hands on her hips (with a very bossy demeanor) and saying things like, "Oh yeah! Are you serious!?! Is that cool or not!?!" Ha ha ha! And she's also been learning that certain activities are not allowed with the babies. For example, she was running across the room at a high rate of speed and jumped right over the top of Sophie!! Geez!! I know I gasped pretty loud! It happened so fast! She easily cleared that "hurdle" Daddy, but we still had a discussion about what things we can jump over!! :)
Every day this week about the same time - 4:30 - Mia has been "primping" in front of the mirror. Yesterday she said, "I'm going to make myself pretty again!" Pretending to put on make-up, using her hands like a wash cloth, doing things with her hair, etc.
