Hats are still the hot commodity in this house, especially with Rose E. She slept with this one last night and wore it all morning. Oh and speaking of hats, today as we where leaving to do some shopping Walter told me "one time my hat came off when out I was outside and the wind got in mine ears because it was curious about mine ears." What a goof! Oh and while we are on the subject of "mine"(Walter always says mine instead of my) I noticed today that Rose E is now picking-up on some of Walter's phrases. The kids have been playing a lot with flashlights and I heard her say "mine light" to Walter. Some of her other new words have been " a snack?(which Walter also is known to say)" "lady" and she also handed me her cup yesterday and said "more, thirsty." This kid is getting too big too fast. Just within the past couple of days she has outgrown more of her clothes. Lately too where ever we go (playgroup, church, shopping) people are just amazed at how fast she has changed from a baby to a little girl! Sometimes it just seems as though they are going to be this little for ever, but then when I stop and reflect from a year ago it just amazes me at how fast it really does go!
Speaking of being amazed, you never know what is going to be the source of entertainment with this kid! A couple of weeks ago he found these dried-up containers of glitter glue and he has just been fascinated with them (glue, glitter and tape have been crafting favorites of his lately). Anyway, two weeks ago he said next time we see Grandma "I am bringing these with to show her" (before that point I was going to sneak them into the garbage but after that I knew I'd hear about it if I did) anyway, today he spent about an hour put zing with them making a "holder and a slide" with tape and decorating the tape all for Grandma. We even had to "make-up" a story about them. While we are on the story subject too, the puppets have also been a big hit in his world. I don't know how many puppet shows we have had lately, it is so much fun watching that imagination at work and Rose E has gotten into it a little too putting them on her hands and even pretending to do things such as have the puppet eat.
