Art with Mommy II - Mush

One of Amber's art books had a recipe for "mush". I'm not sure what the point of it was... probably supposed to encourage tactile exporation, or sensory development, or something. Daddy thought it was creepy and stayed well away from it. But Audrey seemed to like it.

Cakes

Here's the latest projects Nunner has been cooking up in the kitchen...

A fondant purse-shaped cake:




Cake "pops" for an event at Audrey's school:




And of course, assisting Nunner in all this is her dedicated little sous-chef.

Night night, Daddy

This is a game Audrey plays where she takes the pillows off the couch and covers up under Ethan's playmat. Then she wants Daddy to lay down too.

We say "Night night" to each other and she giggles. Until she gets bored, and we move on to another game. Laying quietly seems to take a great deal of concentration for her, so the game doesn't usually last long.

Exersaucer for Two

Note that they're both in the exersaucer together. I'm sure this is voiding some kind of warranty somewhere.

Hug!

Audrey loves to hug Ethan. He's indifferent to this, at best.




Here's the step-by-step.

Step 1: Ethan looks cute.



Step 2: Audrey sees him. "Hold tight baby! I coming!"



Step 3: Huuug!

Snow

Here's some pictures from the last snow fall in Austin. The family was sick at this time (I think Mommy had just recovered, Daddy just gotten sick, and both kids were still sick). At any rate, Mommy and Audrey made it outside for some pictures.

Art with Mommy

Amber got a bunch of art books for toddlers over Christmas, and she and Audrey have been busy making various projects this year. Here's some pictures from one of them.

Matching X-mas PJs

They both have a set of matching Christmas pajama's that we decided to put on them the other day, while they're still the right sizes...

Reading with Ethan

School Uniform

This is Audrey's school uniform. And a rare occasion where she allowed Nunner to do her hair.

Picking Up

Daddy has one of those grabber arms to pick up things. He uses it to pick up in the evenings. So, naturally, Audrey has to have one too.




Sometimes "picking up" turns into a sword fight!
