Playdate with Mia

A few vids from our playdate with Mia today.

Monkey Pile

Daddy always has a knack of picking the rowdiest games just before bedtime.

Gustafer Dance Party

Mia's over for another babysitting swap night. Girls are having a great time. The run-around-and-laugh-while-carrying-soccer-balls game had a second appearance. Mia just had a short spell of the "Maaa-maaa!!!!"s, but it was quickly averted by a screening of a Gustafer Yellowgold DVD. Ordering pizza soon. Fun Saturday night!

Playdate

A quick vid of Mabel dancing to a recent favorite song and one of Mia and Mabel. Mia is over for here for the evening while her mom and dad go out. It's Nathan and my turn in a few weeks. We are trying to do a monthly swap.

I'm not sure what the running game is, but it has been going on for over 30 minutes and only gains momentum with each lap.

Early Happy Valentine's Day

Here are a few videos of Mabel playing with some xmas gifts and one of her opening her Valentine from Grandma Katie. Enjoy!

Grinch

It's Jan. 9th and there is no end in sight to the end of Mabel's Grinch obsession. It all started with a t-shirt from St. Nick. Then Mabel saw the animated version and fell in love. Mama bought her the book which is more tattered and torn in three short weeks than some of the books she's had over two years. Here's a vid of her reenacting "hand in hand". This happens for at least 2-3 hours a day.

NYE 2009

Another rockin' NYE with Sara, Paolo, & Mia. Nathan and the girls playing a little "Reggie-Moon".
