A Peek at the Week

Chris is certainly interested in everything around him. I found out this week that you don't want to have the rocking chair too close to toys (i.e. Claire and Chloe's doll house) if you want to rock him to sleep. He needs to study the details of anything near him making sure he doesn't miss out on anything. Below he is playing with a busy box toy which he thoroughly enjoys.

Papa and he spend some time together and following that, he works his way to his toy basket to check out the contents.

This was one of the highlights of the week. Mommy had been playing with Chris like she was a "bobble-head" and he laughed so hard we couldn't believe it. Below, Claire joins in while Nonie holds Chris. The laughter was so contagious we just couldn't stop.

Chloe was all relaxed on this day and didn't want to get out of her night shirt. She finally did, but it was a good thing it wasn't a school day.

Claire, on the other hand, decided that she had to have two bows in her hair and eventually added a flower to the center. Oh my, what style! Claire was a bit sick on Wednesday and unable to attend preschool. Chloe went to school by herself, which was a big thing since the two are so attached to each other. Mike said that Chloe focused on showing her teacher the zucchini she had grown and so was able to survive the day without Claire. Claire, at home, must have said 4-5 times, "I sure miss my sister". When Chloe got home they hugged like they had been apart six months. It is so special to have a twin.

Papa and Grandma attended our nephew's beautiful wedding this weekend in Sonoma. What a treat! Thankful to be home safe and looking forward to a new week and adventures with the grandkids!
