Interview with Nyla

Interview with Nyla. This was done over two days. Nyla was in a silly mood when I first started asking the daddy questions so we had to stop and take a break

mommy - Sure you can have some turkey.

mommy - I don't know
daddy - doing pants
Nyla - Cora makes me happy when he hugs me.

3. What makes mommy/daddy/ Nyla sad?

mommy - I have an idea! What makes Cora sad?
daddy - Doing not what he says
Nyla - Hitting me (Nyla is the only hitter in the family. She is not the one getting hit.)

I just noticed that the last time I posted a picture of Cora in the chair she was wearing the exact same outfit.  Nyla likes to pick out Cora's clothes. I had chosen something last night but Nyla insisted that she should wear this instead.  Nyla tried to make Cora's outfit coordinate with her own.  Her way of doing this is basically making sure that they are both wearing pink.


Bohdin has been doing a lot of art this week which is great because he hasn't done very much since we've moved here. Nyla always joins in because she loves art. Here are some of the creations from the past few days. I guess it's pretty easy to spot Nyla's art since it is pink.

I don't think Buddy owns anything pink. Many of her answers were very imaginative.

We do have Skype now. We'll definitely have to let the boys talk.
