IMG_5496 (Custom)Phoebe drew her first successful face today under Elijah’s tutalage.  Elijah was a proud teacher and Phoebe a proud student…and I was a proud mother.  :-)

Noah didn’t have school this morning and he and Phoebe were in rare form, in search of every possible way to make their two studious siblings laugh.  Silly, silly, silly those two are together.  I finally had to banish them to Phoebe’s room to restore order to the school room.  :-)

P.S.  And yes, they are still in their PJs.  Phoebe wore hers all day today.  Noah got dressed just before supper so that he could run some errands with daddy.

A-dic-a-lous!

IMG_5360 (Custom)Phoebe’s newest word:  ridiculous.  Translated into toddler-speak:  a-dic-a-lous. 

“That’s just a-dic-a-lous!”  says she with her hands on her hips and a furrowed brow.  Usually when she’s upset with here brothers. 

He he.  She tries so hard to boss them.  Cracks me up.
