Belly Laughs


The kids and I had a great Tuesday.  I just love it when they play together.  I was able to capture a game of hide & seek. 
Elinor is really starting to talk a lot.  She says so many words.  Some even surprise me.  She says John and John-John all day long.  She calls for Daddy and she loves to call for me from across the house.  They were both evaulated by the county for development.  John's verbal communication is not where it should be.  The speech pathologist feels that he will finally get it, however, he does qualify for a little speech therapy.  So we are going to try that and continue to work with John.  He is so great in other areas of development..... climbing is one of them.  He also ran away on Mother's Day... out the back door.  Lloyd never made  a peep as he watched him go.  Andy finally realized that he was gone and caught him in the neighbor's back yard in pj's and bare feet.  Deck gates to be ordered soon. Until then, the back door is always locked. 
So the crib tent has been a dream.  There are no random middle of the night visits by young John.  Everyone is getting a good night's rest with the tent.  He doesn't even mind it anymore either. We just try to make it really silly like giving kisses through the mesh.  It sends him into giggles  
The kids have found a new love for jumping from the coffee table to the couch.  It's scary. I would rather they go back to dancing on it.  

Wouldn't it be great to be this fearless!
