I mentioned before how interesting it is when the "older" kids actually "see" a milestone which one of the little ones has accomplished. And sometimes it's many weeks later! For example, this morning Mia excitedly exclaimed; "Look at her!! She's going around and all over the house!!" She just "noticed" that Sophie was actually crawling!
We were reading books from this toy exchange and like I've mentioned previously Cooper (and sometimes Mia) loves the "I Spy" books. Some of the pages are full of little items to identify. We were looking at a Castle and I asked, "Do you see a girl falling off the wall?" (age appropriate picture, right?) Cooper answered, "The Knights did that!" There were lots of "Knights" on the wall as well, but I've never used that word here. He LOVES those books and we looked at that one book for a long time! Mia was bored with the book and had gotten down and was running around and after we were done Cooper asked Mia, "Will you read this to me?" And she usually does, but not today. No more of that book today!! :)
Cooper and Mia were "camping" and playing with one of the houses in the Big Box (picture below). They were going to sleep and Cooper yelled, "Morning Time!!" Mia said, "I didn't go to sleep yet!! Why'd you wake up so early!?!" Ha!
Mia and Cooper were playing and hanging on the front of the igloo and Mia said, "Gary, Elliott, and Sophie!! Look at me!! I'm upside-down!" (Elliott and Sophie are especially impressed Mia!! Ha!) Later Elliott was drooling (he does a LOT of that!) and Mia said, "You keep your spit in your mouth!!" :) Uhhh, he's really not spitting! (Although I've gotten on his case for spitting and he rarely spits now!)
