Outside

The weather has been so lovely considering it is winter here that the kids have had a lot of time to play outside. Last week I told Bohdin and Nyla to play outside while Cora slept. When she woke up they were excited to show me the holes they had dug in the front yard. They moved on to playing with the giant ball and riding bikes. Later that evening Nyla was tossing Cora around like a rag doll which Cora thought was incredible fun. After that Nyla practiced her flips so Cora had to try as well. Bohdin was off reading or listening to his history on the ipod.









Friday we had friends come visit. Both Bohdin and Nyla didn't play well at first. The other kids were interested in the toys and Bohdin and Nyla wanted to play something else. It took a long time for my kids to start having fun. It wasn't until the toys were put away actually. Then Nyla could do the tunnel/playhouse structure she built earlier with R- and Bohdin played an invented math game with M- and P-. We talked about it later so hopefully next time will be better.

Bohdin says that Cora has a new word. Yesterday when he was pushing her on the bike she said yay. This weekend she also said GooGoo for the first time. GooGoo is the name of every baby doll in the house. Nyla chose it because books always tell that babies say goo goo.
Now I finally have one that does.
