Scraped Nose

Last week, Findley fell and scraped her nose. It didn't seem to bother her much, but she got lots of sympathy from everyone who saw her.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Walker learned a new Thanksgiving song at school. It took a couple of tries for him to do the whole thing for us, but eventually he got it.

Flying a Kite

We decided to take advantage of the strong winds last weekend by going to fly a kite. We have an awesome airplane kite (Walker insists that it is not a kite; it is an airplane). He was really good at holding on to it, and he was sad - or to be more accurate, extremely angry and upset - when we finally wound it in and headed home. The next day, he was still talking about how much fun he had flying his airplane.

Sick Findley

Findley recently got another ear infection. While Mama was driving to the pharmacy to pick up the antibiotic, Findley fell asleep. Even though she was feeling so bad, she looked really cute and peaceful in her car seat.

Drumming with the Band

As anyone who has recently hung out with Walker can attest, one of his favorite activities is drumming. He drums with sticks, straws, forks, spoons, pieces of chalk, pencils, pens, and sometimes even footballs. A couple of weeks ago, our family went to a high school football game. A couple of students from Leann's school are in the band, and they invited Walker over to try out their drums. He had a great time making noise!

Findley's Pigtails

Recently, Granny came to town and went with me to pick up Walker and Findley at their school. When we got there, Findley's teacher had put her hair in pigtails. We went to the park so Findley could show off how cute she looked.

Swinging with Papa Gator

A couple of weeks ago, Walker spent the night with Marmee and Papa Gator. Walker and PaGator worked on their aerobatic routine and showed it off for us.

London Bridge

Walker has been singing a lot of the songs he learns at school. Here's his rendition of London Bridge. He seems to think the last line is, "My poor lady."

Dinner Fun

Mama was gone for the evening, so Dad and the kids had some fun at dinnertime. Findley is starting to get the hang of playing "Where's Findley?"
