Toddler Delight
D: Our kids are expressing their joy in the world around them more and more every day. I love sharing in their delight, through their eyes. I can actually FEEL their excitement as we marvel at the wonders of it all.
What they (and I) now love the most:
Planes flying overhead.
Spiders (the ones up in their webs, not the ones crawling across the floor).
Cows (Mooo!)
Washable crayons.
Sitting in big boy chairs and watching mama cook dinner.
Splashing each other in the bath tub (and their parents).
Pointing to each others body parts and ‘naming’ them (all words are still spoken in twin-talk).
Running around naked.
Dancing while naked.
Pretending to be a naked monster and growling at everything (this was a new one tonight).
Splashing in puddles.
One, two, three… JUMP! (Onto or off of the couch or bed)
Jumping and dancing on the bed.
Balls. Balls. Balls. Anything that looks like a ball. (This word is spoken in English and is heard 100 times a day.)
Climbing up everything. Climbing down everything.
Being lifted up onto the monkey bars at least 8 feet into the air and hanging from them for a good 20 seconds while giggling.
Waving hello. Waving good-bye.
Playing with Chili Bean. (Our pug)
Giving each other hugs.

Oh my goodness I swear sometimes if I hear the word dog one more time I'll flip out:). And the zoo...forget about it. There are easily 1,000 "dogs" there. Glad to know we're not alone!
