Back at it

Back at the drawing table first thing in the AM

TGIF!

Good morning! Thank goodness for these headphones that were hiding under mommy's bed for a rainy, cold, 5am morning. Lion King on the screen, Ninja Turtles on the ears.

Kira is jumping right into coloring and thankfully Max approved of the transition from magic markers back to Kira-friendly crayons.

"I drew the Earf!"

When it rain, it splashes!

Max loves group hugs and it appears that Kira does, too!

Sleeping beauty

...went in to close the window and it took a lot of will power to not scoop her up and eat her!

Explaining his newest Ninja Turtle family illustration

This girl will go from eyes closed in bed to out the door, with a waffle in hand, in under three minutes.

Half of the time when this one wakes up he requires an exorcism, a show, several outfit choices, and a perfectly toasted waffle with accompanying bag of "sauce" (syrup).

Max said this is "Sky Walker". Later on he wrote "Max loves Sky Walker" across the top of the page. It really just said "Max" with some random scribbles, however he did a superior job tracing his mask.

Caterpillar hunter

Happy Monday!

5 isn't a crowd! Let's look for more caterpillars! All afternoon! Max kept finding different size caterpillars and saying that the small ones are babies, the big ones are daddies, and one on the deck looks like Simba (a lion).

Thank goodness for yogurt!

Kira is strictly observing Passover- just matzoh and yogurt for dinner.

What does a girl have to do to get a wagon ride?

Belated Seder

Another early morning snuggle session brought to you by Max and Kira [and Kira's favorite vest].

We hit the playground bright and early today. Kira does not want to leave Max's side.

Max has been searching high and low for a caterpillar to call his very own and today he found one! By the end of the day he had 5. Unfortunately these may be the kind that turn into moths, not butterflies. Fortunately, Max does not want them to turn into anything, as he wants them to remain jarred for life in our house.

"I don't want it to have ANY name!"

It was a gorgeous afternoon!

Kira walked laps around the neighborhood.

We had our Seder a few days late

Found it!

Jumping for joy

Behind every 8:00am weekend wake up are 100 5:00am wake ups

Leave them alone for a minute...

Kira was jumping for joy at Emma's birthday party while Max played with the dollhouse.

TGIF

Hope these two are as good all weekend as they were this afternoon!

This kid is hilarious. He said he "thinks" he had a dream that daddy was riding a red motorcycle outside the front door of the house, but he is not sure if it was a dream or if it was real. The poor little fashionista had a tough time deciding what to sleep in tonight. "I can't find a shirt! It's taking FOREVER! It's so hard!!" He has it pretty rough.
