Day 280: Watching Videos

The girls really enjoy watching videos on the computer- especially videos of themselves. Last night Paige sat on Ben's lap and they watched videos together from our trip to the beach this past summer. Virginia soon joined them in watching the videos. They enjoyed seeing Mimi, Pops and Uncle Lloyd in the videos.

Day 279: Our Litte Hobo

Tonight Virginia put on her backpack and started filling a pillow case with toys. She kept going to the basement door like she was trying to leave, but the pillow case was tough for her to carry. Ben was nice and took it and tied it to her broom so she could carry it like a hobo would. We couldn't get her to carry put the broom over her shoulder, but she was happy to carry the broom with the pillow case tied to it.

Day 278: Wagon Ride

Today I took the wagon and walked up to Virginia and Paige's daycare to pick them up. I had a nice walk up there while I talked to my grandma on her 76th birthday. Then I loaded the girls into the stroller and we walked home. They enjoyed their ride and checking out the scenery. I heard them talking to each other as I pulled them along. They didn't want to get out when we got home, until I told them we could take the wagon in the house with us. They love playing with it.

Day 277: "Hoot Hoot I'm Cute"

Virginia was playing with bear this evening and kept covering him up with her new favorite blanket, aka "my banket." She's wearing her new shirt that we got in the mail on Saturday from a friend of mine. It says, "Hoot Hoot I'm Cute" and it couldn't be more true.

Day 276: Watching Football

Dee and Dude came over for awhile this afternoon and watched the Redskins' game with us. Thanks for pulling that one out for us, Skins! We all had a good time hanging out with Dee and Dude, and enjoyed a yummy dinner with them. Virginia sat on the couch with Dude and Daddy intently watching the game. Paige spent most of her time cuddled up with either Mommy or Dee since the poor little girl has a fever and doesn't feel well.

Day 275: Riding a Dragon

Today we all went to the Fall for Fairfax KidsFest. It was a lot of fun! The girls got to ride several different rides, play in a moonbounce, go to a small petting zoo and ride a train. Paige and Virginia loved the rides! Here they are riding in a dragon that swings back and forth. Virginia is smiling, she's just looking down while smiling.

Day 274: Picnic Lunch

Today Virginia, Paige and I decided to take advantage of the nice weather and lack of rain, so we ate our lunch out on the deck. The girls loved being outside and sitting in the big chairs. They didn't eat a whole lot of lunch, but that's okay. It was nice for all of us to not be stuck in the house.
