a friday morning

last night our ex (boise) neighbors left to continue their journey. we had a great time with them! we miss you, houcks! adeline looked out the window & went 'hhmm, choo choo??'
so this morning is shaping up to be a normal friday morning. we have a possible get-out-of-the-house playdate, amelia has a boo boo, adeline has watched dora AND curious george & i'm not even finished with my 1st cup of coffee.

so while adeline was eating her breakfast, amelia colored her first picture. on addy's book stickers (they're not normal stickers, they only stick to this certain princess book). adeline has not discovered this intrusion of personal property yet....
& here is what a 12 month old looks like after a free 5 minutes with a marker.


so amelia's boo boo went like this: baby climbing up wooden kid slide. baby laughing & dancing to music. baby attempting to turn around on top of slide. baby fell under the hand rails, backwards & hit head & eye on corner of wall. yea, lots of screaming. but adeline came to the rescue sharing her little bear & stuffed curious george.

i am trying to be positive today, you know, this *will* be a good day, etc blah. maybe it will. maybe adeline will act like a spawn of the devil as she did last night. maybe amelia will only nap for 40 minutes like she did yesterday. who knows. but already the was picked up house is a mess & the girls are fighting (well, amelia is antagonizing, adeline is being selfish you know the rest). & why am i typing when i could be drinking coffee?!

oooh, markers. My mother nearly rushed my sister to the ER once when she emerged from a closet with an entirely black mouth. She wasn't sick; she'd been busily biting the tips -- not swallowing, just biting -- off all our markers. I haven't been brave enough to give The Boy any yet.
