My best friend and her family came to visit on Saturday. It was great because we hadn't seen them since she was pregnant with the twins and they will be a year old in December. Their three sons are adorable! The oldest is so mellow compared to my older daughter (he is five months older than she.) Baby Girl was clearly smitten with him and she proceeded to stalk him the entire visit. We had the best intentions of fixing a gourmet dinner on Sunday evening, but our drinking got in the way and we ate appetizers and played Shut the Box (Best of 15.)
Other than that, there is nothing new to report. Baby Girl's artwork continues to make us laugh. Her latest installment is quite funny. The picture on pink paper is me. She is learning to draw details such as eye lashes and hair. Apparently I am still a size 0, which is awesome. What is NOT awesome is the
apparent tumor I have on my ear. Herr Hausfrau is featured on the green paper. He has a wicked comb-over of one long strand of hair. She mentioned that "This is Daddy and he is NOT happy." Hence, the mustache-looking frown. The third picture was drawn yesterday while I was on the phone with my friend Lisa. She said that they were bumblebees with belly buttons. And one is "VERY unhappy."

Oh I love the pictures!
I heard Walk the Line was great movie too...I recently got to get out and saw Capote. BIG THUMBS up if you're able to get out again. I think that it too will be nominated for an Acadamy Award.
Want to see Walk the Line.
Ok, and as a preschool teacher, can I just say that Baby Girl's pictures are AWESOME? Not only in terms of their artistry :) but also in terms of her depictions of people and forms. She has great fine motor skills! :)
Ok, professional me off.
Thanks for you comments. I'm ok. Slept a lot today with the vicodin, and ate some m&m's. :)
Yeah for adult dates!
LOL @ Baby girls pictures!!! Wonder who the "Very Unhappy" bumblebee was??? And Im totally loving the tumor you have growing on your ear....that had me crackin up !
Yea for Thai! I tried my hand at making Thai iced tea this weekend at a get together, and it wasn't half bad, if I do say so myself. My friend, who is Thai, got me the "real deal" tea mix and gave me a few pointers. Makes the long stretches of time between visits to Thai restaurants bearable.
The artwork is too cute.
I'm with Mary P. That's the stuff I would have said had vicodin not been fluffling my brain. Serisouly, Baby girl is definitely advanced in her person making. I showed my husband, who knows enough about child development from listening to me rhapsodize about stages of development... and he was totally impressed. Want to get Baby Girl and the Hethan together? :) They'd make a great couple! :)
I agree that those pictures are quite impressive. My oldest was still piling layer upon layer of crayon wax in disturbing tornado-like scribbles at that age!
What's with the grumpy bumblebees? And I like the Herr's combover . . .
