As a mom one of the things I love is when my kids play well together, or alone. :) The last few weeks of summer have been hot which means playing outside has turned into playing inside. I love when they play with their toys though, of course with that comes a huge mess followed by a battle to clean up a lot of times but at least their toys are getting used.
This is my Opa playing memory with my kids. Whenever we stayed at my grandparents we played their German memory game all.the.time. Opa often played with us. When I was in Germany I got my own German memory game for my kids. I love that Opa still will play and that he takes the exact same position on the floor that he did with us as kids. My grandparents were down from Washington for a week so Oma could do some more geneology. We had them over for dinner.
Kenya and Leila were playing in the playroom so quietly and for such a long time one day. I snuck up to take some pictures of them. Of course it is a disaster but that just means they've been busy playing, maybe one day I'll catch them before the playroom gets to this point.
Charlie really started getting into his Legos again, which is great. This is a boat he made that he wanted to take in the bath.
Leila loves books. Seek and Find Elmo was a big hit for a few weeks. I love when she just gets a book out and starts "reading" it to herself.
