Mess Game and other stuff

Joey and Claire made up a game that they call the Mess Game. It involves one person (usually Joey) sitting on a couch or bed and the other person bringing them every toy they can find. While it does make a big mess, it usually keeps them occupied for at least 30min so I gladly let them play. We are working on clean up afterwards. Tonight, while I was doing dishes after dinner, they started playing. I decided to take a little video so you could see the game in action. Claire's behind-the-back wave was cracking me up. Tonight was the first time I've ever seen her do that. Also, if you listen carefully you can hear Joey say, "Thanks, honey."


Other Stuff

Claire is all done missing her ya-ya and all four of her eye teeth are in now.

Joey has been sleeping on the couch (and in our bed) for the last month because he is scared in his room. This weekend I plan to go shopping for a bunk or loft bed set up and maybe put Claire in his room with him. Joey currently has a small toddler bed so maybe a bigger boy twin bunk/loft bed will be cool enough to sleep in? Any other ideas from those of you who have gone through this scary phase with your kids?

Two of our three new aquatic friends are doing great. Unfortunately, Car bit the dust. I replaced him yesterday while Joey was at school and no one is none the wiser. Hopefully, Car2 will live a little longer.

We are in the WHY? stage. Both of them hit it at the same time. Joey likes to ask why over and over again. Claire usually says, "Ooooohhh...why?"

Haha! Looks like she ran back into the room, farted, and then tried to fan it towards her big brother before running back out!
