The children and I are enjoying the deck and the sandbox. They wanted me to add more sand to the box. I told them that we would soon be cleaning the box up and getting it ready for the winter and the rocks we use in it in the basement.
Ella heard winter and said "yeah and I get to wear winter dresses."
Goodness gracious this girl.
I looked at her and said "yep winter dresses and then you'll want to wear summer ones!"
We'll just call her "Backwards Season Girl"

We were driving to school this morning looking out the windows and both children were mentioning things we passed. This is normal especially on the everyday traveled roads. Ella and I were both puzzled when Coop announced to look at the seahorse. We both pretty much in unison said we didn't see a seahorse. Coop told us to look up in the clouds. Low and behold the clouds were in a shape of what appeared to be a seahorse!!! What a great eye to spot a seahorse in the clouds!!! He is a unique boy and while he notices the everyday BK, golf carts and The Y, his attention is attracted to the sky and the images clouds create!

We have on Curious George. He's a monkey and I guess monkeys can be easily trained and taught.
I think I need to hire The Man With The Yellow Hat to come and teach my children some things as he obviously has some kind of super power that enables him to have the patience of a saint and his student always seen to have things mastered, under control, fixed or is successful in whatever it was that had him puzzled/perplexed in less that 15 minutes.

First collection of acorns. Bring on the acorn crafts! Bring in getting pelted in the head often.

Wallykazam is a children's show on Nick Jr. my children love this show. At the end of the one episode Ogur Doug is singing a song about his Flitterflug (his pet bug)... We teased Cooper the first time we saw this episode about him being the Flitterflug Bug. At the end of the song Ogur Doug says that the Flitterflug ...really really really loves to hug.
The kids were partially watching the show after their naps and the end scene came on and I called to Coop (as he usually runs over and hugs me).....today he said "no hugs from Cooper" and went back to playing with his sister.
I had to settle for a hug from Ebony. She was very willing. :-)

Children have been napping for 2 hours. I'm hoping that naps have done them wonders and when I go for them they are happy little people! It's been a heck of a day. Out of control behavior with no listening skills. My car keys, wallet and phone even managed to get locked in my car due to one of the children not listening and crawling to the front of the car when asked not to.
