Fancy

As I was showering, Anna came into the bathroom and asked, "Is this fancy enough?" I looked, and she was holding up a summer dress. "Fancy enough for what?" Then I reconsidered my answer, and said "Yes," which in my experience is usually the right answer to such questions.

But apparently my answer was not satisfactory, and when I came out of the shower she was putting on a shirt, and I discovered the reason for the question: Victor had decided that he was going to be dressy today, and Anna felt the need to match his sartorial splendor!

These are the outfits they had came up with. I helped them put on the ties they had picked, but that was the only assistance I provided.

Anna needed to show off this paper doll cat she had created with boots, sunglasses, and other accessories.

These outfits are perfectly sensible for "active living week" at daycare, right?

Disparate loads

So Victor is carrying his backpack, Anna's backpack, and this other bag full of stuff Anna decided that she needed to bring home from daycare. And Anna is carrying... a desire to pick that flower?

Kittens

After supper they played for a long time at being kittens.

Here Anna is hissing at Victor. I'll note that she does this at other times too, she thinks it is great fun.

Morning

Victor and Anna let me sleep in this morning. This is what they were doing when I eventually came down. Some kind of show? Not sure.

My Favorite Things

It was drama week at the daycare. Of course they had to have a show at the end. Here they're performing the “My Favorite Things” bit from The Sound of Music.

Reading

Victor reading a book Rowan left behind, while Anna follows along.
