On our way to the mail!

Aaaahhhhh.....I can hardly handle the cuteness in this picture. Like the shirt? 50 cents at the thrift store, and it's Children's Place. Like the Bumbo? $30 from the buy/swap group I started on Facebook. You can't see it, but she's wearing an amber teething necklace that I swapped a jacket for on the same Facebook group. Yay for thriftiness! And cuteness. :)

Last week my parents babysat Wyatt and Paige while Josh and I went to a wedding reception. My mom drew out a hopscotch grid on the driveway, which Wyatt loved, but unfortunately it rained the next day and washed it away. Wyatt had been asking all week for me to draw another one for him, so I did. We drew it in blue, then red, then he had to go over it in yellow. Then he scribbled out the three and asked to go inside. Clearly it's not nearly as much fun with mommy as it is with grandma.

We did our part today and bought a couple of Blizzards for Miracle Treat Day. Wyatt was way too happy to pick out what kind Josh would get ("Smarties!!!!!"), and probably ate 1/3 of it. Of course, had we bought him his own, he would have hardly touched it. :P He was so wired up on sugar, he walked all the way home!
Odd side note: on the way home, an older lady asked if Paige and Wyatt were twins (whuck?), and then another old lady stopped Wyatt and gave him candy, and pinched his cheek! He was a little put off by the pinch (not a hard pinch, I just don't think he's used to strangers touching his face...nor should he be, ha ha), and I quickly pocketed the candy (which later made it's way into the garbage can - she seemed nice enough, but if I wouldn't eat it, my kid sure isn't). It was an interesting walk home...

See that drooly smile? I am pretty sure my 11 week old is teething. :S She gnaws on everything and sooooo much drool. Please, please don't let her be teething already. :S

Wyatt has discovered jumping on the couch. And his bed. And my bed. Probably Paige's crib, if I let him. So here is a picture of him kind of jumping, and looking a lot like Bat Boy from News of the World for some reason.

I know it's not a great picture, but I had to be quick! Paige is 11 weeks today, and will. not. stay.still. I put her on the playmat, and she scooted around 45 degrees as fast as I could grab the camera. Then she started lifting herself off the mat with her legs! She does this in the tub too, which pushes her down towards the water (which is why we took to calling her Kamikaze Paige). She just has no desire to lay around and observe...she wants to move and get in on the action. I am starting to brace myself now for the next few years...
