Jr2 now says prayers and has started saying parts of them without assistance.  You can tell what is important in his life.  First he blesses the food, then he blesses the vacuum, then he thanks for the vacuum.  If we forget to bless the vacuum when praying, he will assist us in remembering it.  Today he also added in blessing his puppy, who is sick and has been throwing up.  (His puppy is a stuffed animal.)

Jr3 got new, larger Sunday shoes of which she approves.  She also is still big into all things belly button and is starting to get the hang of trading a toy for a toy.  I also got her a new swimsuit for next year, since they are on sale now (hopefully I got the right size).  Sr was not sure what he thought of it until Jr3 saw it, grabbed it out of the bag, carried it around with her, and would not let Sr even hold it.  Hey -- maybe she will take after Auntie Roo and it can even help potty train her next year.

New Pics

So I have decided that I should sometimes get to do something I enjoy -- and I don't just mean playing games on the computer.  I mean doing something I like more than that.  I have decided to sew a few nights a week.  I have (mostly) completed my first project.  It is a balloon skirt I made for Jr3.  While balloon skirts are always a flop on project runway, they look pretty cute on little girls.  There is a bow to go on it that I have not yet finished.  The clock struck midnight and I didn't want the skirt to turn into a pumpkin.  (Uncle P probably thinks it looks like a pumpkin already.)

Anyway, this inspired me to take a few pictures.  One has Jr2 showing off his new haircut I gave him.  Another one has Jr3 in her new skirt she wore to church today.  Don't worry Auntie Roo, she wore a solid pink shirt with it.  The last one has them both posing with Jr2's favorite item in the house, which is asleep since it is Sunday.
