Our nap times are very touch and go since we took Cavan's pacifier back on January 1st. The door gets shut on occasion to enforce staying in the bedroom. Gabby takes "quiet time", so she is not expected to sleep, but neither is Cavan really. So playing is always a given during this time. I was standing at the door the other day, and peeked in with the camera, and little man looked right at me while he was being a monkey hanging from the top bunk. I tell ya, I'm running out of ideas to keep him in the room. All Mommy needs is a hour break, but it seriously is like asking them to stand in a corner for 20 minutes. Ahhhh!!!
Aunt Ya Ya, Uncle David, Pixie and little Aryanna came to visit us last weekend. The kids (and us of course) loved, loved, loved having them come. Everyone was so sad to see them leave!!
Uncle David was given some nice duds from Phil for Christmas, and Cavan had to wear them.
(That is hot chocolate he is holding as well, just in case you were wondering! =0))
They brought with them, a new video game for Gabby to play, and let me tell you, she loves it!!!! I had to take pictures of her very focused playing technique. She is only allowed to play it with Clay when he gets home from work, and only for 30 to 40 minutes. Addiction to games is not fun to try and overcome (believe me, I know), so we have decided to keep gaming to a minimum! She will ask for it throughout the day, but the answer is always the same. Cavan will "pretend" play, not knowing that is what he is doing, but he looses interest very quickly...thank goodness! Ha ha!!
Here is the awesome table that Dad and Mom came all the way to Chapel Hill, to help me get!! We love it, and are so grateful that they are always there for us!!! We love and miss you Pop Pop and Granny!! Gabby of course, had a blast playing with Anna!!!!
Tonight at Harris Teeter, the kids were begging for balloon, but with the helium shortage, HT doesn't do free balloons anymore, which is such a bummer. It finally hit me tonight, why not buy a bag of balloons and blow them up ourselves. So that is what we finally did! The kids, and Zaidy, loved it!
(I know, it always takes me a bit to figure it out!)
