Wanna come play?

I love these kids!! Sure they drive me crazy much of the time, but I love seeing them play together. I especially love seeing all three of them play together. It makes the last year and a half worth it. (Three kids three and under, husband gone a lot and a baby that doesn't nap well and all the chaos that naturally ensues)

The girls, especially Emma, are in a stage where they love to pretend to be animals. Emma will go from being a cat to an elephant, to a wolf and back to a cat in a matter of 5 minutes sometimes. Lately, she won't do what I ask her to unless I call her by her current pretend name. Today it was 'Dora' the cat.

"Dora, will you please wash your hands?"

Funny girls. This first video cracks me up. I am so glad Kenneth caught this on film. I love the part in the middle where Grant tries to join them under the crib. You'll have to turn up your volume so you can hear what they are saying. There is a turtle and a cow and they are taking turns riding on each others backs. I love that it took them forever to even notice that Kenneth was filming them! This is by far the longest of the videos, so if you want just a short look at these adorable children, try one of the others below.



Here is a video of the kids playing outside on our back patio. Grant loves the fact that he can walk all over now!! The girls love that he will chase them around. Notice Grant sporting the lovely Strawberry Shortcake hat of Emma's. Ni-i-i-i-ce.



Here is a video that I took today. It's a little dark, but you can see that all three of them are having a ball together! Thanks again for the blanket, Mom. You can see it has more than one purpose around here!! Mom Larchar, thanks for your blanket, too. As you can see it is right there on the couch. They both get used daily!




Sometimes we play so hard that we zonk out on the floor, like this:


Wanna come join us?

  1. That long video is so fun, a great way to enjoy their personalities if we have to be so far away- thank you for sharing! I'm sure it is very rewarding watching them play together!
