Such a Big Girl

Grets has been getting so big and is still so sweet yet so silly. Last night Layla was dancing around in fancy shoes, so Greta went over to Layla's shoe bin and pulled out a pair of dance slippers that she tried to put on herself. So cute how she wants to be just like her big sis:). Greta and I stayed home from church this morning due to her snotty nose and I thought it was funny that her and Elv were sitting in this little chair together (and that she took her socks off and then wanted these shoes on:D). Elv just had his FIRST haircut since we moved (last summer!) so he is now so shaved that he shivers without his sweater on:). Thankfully he had one here. I should have gotten a picture of him before his haircut b/c he looked like quite the shaggy dog!!

My dad and Joyce are in Hawaii (which with all this snow, it has been SO nice to be able to park in the garage, especially on mornings that I have to load up the kids to take Layla to school) so we let them play the piano today for a bit. Layla always asks, but obviously, that would be a bit annoying to my dad and Joyce if they were here, so normally I don't let them. You can't see it, but Gibs has a microphone in his hand. They can certainly make a lot of noise! As you can guess, this did not last all afternoon:). Even Greta thought it was fun though! As loud as they were, it's so cute to see how happy they were singing and playing, and it's also amazing, as a mom, how easily I've learned to tune things out:).

Tonight after baths, they had popcorn and a movie before bed (on my computer since there's no DVD player down here). We only have two little comfy chairs (Layla and Gibs got them for Christmas) and as soon as I moved them infront of the computer, Greta quickly climbed right in. I thought that would cause issues, but Layla happily took a "non-comfy" chair and put her pillows on it to make it comfy and said it was even comfier than the other two:). Such a nice big sis!
