a few minutes of fun...

These two have more fun together. While it is typical for children CJ and Anna Grace's age to parallel play, or play side by side, they have always played well together. I'm not saying they are like this all day, but for a good part of our days, they play with each other. I love it. These series of shots were all taken within 5 minutes of each other, so you can also get an idea for how B.U.S.Y these two are.

I first grabbed my camera because Anna Grace looked so pretty as she gazed out the front door. (Please don't judge me for the drool smudges on the window.)


Soon CJ realized Anna Grace was having fun without him, so he quickly came over to check out what was going on. They love to look out the front door and all our windows. We are lucky our windows are all about 6 inches from the floor. They have great views of the front and back yards that thoroughly entertain them.


Anna Grace had enough looking out the window, and went to say hi to Connor-dog (who it is hard to see) through the gate.


Then CJ had enough too, and went to find something else to play with.


Anna Grace followed, and they found the bug jug. They love to pull them out and put them back in. Luckily CJ's favorite are the spider and cricket and Anna Grace likes the lady bug and butterfly, so there's hardly any fighting over who gets what bug. I'm not lying...there is something to be said about gender preference even at a young age!



Then Anna Grace found something behind her....the air return vent. It makes a pretty noise when you hit it or strum your fingers over it.


You can see the bug jug fall as CJ decides he must join her for some musical fun.



And then it was back to the front door for these two. That was the end of our few minutes of fun...lots to do in such a short time. Do you wonder why I am tired at the end of the day keeping up with these two? Such a joy!


Then Daddy came home and took the camera; he caught CJ trying to feed mommy a (pretend) cookie. Such a sweet boy.


A few more sweet shots of my little charmer with crazy hair...



And then daddy wanted to play with the camera. I think these turned out really well.



We have so much fun around here!
