We Braved the Richmond Family Social

So, I took the kids to the Richmond Family Social. They (PTA) had promised babysitting but they were unable to secure anyone. It still went pretty well. Caleb was a dancing fool. If you have ever seen Caleb dance it is the weirdest thing. He mostly  bobs up and down and moves one arm in a weird I'm having a seizure way while focusing on wiggling his fingers. His favorite parts of the evening were 1. The Hokey Pokey, 2. That Stomp song (You know right foot, left foot, now stomp two times, criss cross....yes I am a little old and out of touch. But, I crissed crossed with the best of them!), 3. The locomotion (he held a little girl's butt.), and 4. Hula Hooping (as in he held a hula hoop and spun in circles.) Kendall did great but kept trying to leave. So, a few parents did door duty and turned her around when she reached a door. Having them also allowed me to leave an hour early which was a wonderful thing!

More Red Snapper Please

That is what was heard at my dinner table today by Caleb and both Kendall and Caleb cried when it was finished. They are definitely not Dorfman's.

Shoes


Now that Kendall is walking we had to pull out her shoes and actually begin having her wear them. Caleb hated shoes. It was such a struggle to keep them on his feet. Kendall is the opposite. She was so excited yesterday. She kept looking and touching them. She marched around our house in them thinking she was hot stuff. Today, when I pulled out a different pair she began giggling and giggling. Then she started cheering. I was worried she was not going to like them, but maybe I should have been worried that she is going to love them. I have never cheered for shoes like she did. She is definitely related to her Aunt Rachel!
