Where is the Party?!

Putting kids to bed is an art. You: read stories, say prayers, kisses, brush teeth, etc. etc. etc. You close the door and then BAM the kids hear a noise (cell phone, computer, front door opening) and you see the above! They are hanging off their bed just hoping they can come out! We have tad poles in our little pond near our house. Everyday the kids go out to report on how they are doing. Asa somehow ends up near/in the pond and Miriam has enjoyed better health now that the weather is a bit warmer.

Salome is clapping for herself here! She is pretty cute walking around these days and loves to give herself validation. It probably helps that all of us coo, clap and cheer her on every time she walks! It is really fun to see her personality come out more. She is an extrovert big time. Loves people, pictures of people and will squeal when she sees other people at the park coming towards her. She hates to leave groups of people! If she could, she would have a party everyday.
