one of my favorite things

Listening to D during nighttime story time for the Vassariños. We've started including O in the group story time and I think it's a beautiful thing for them to all share. 

theater fun

We took R and S to see The Little Mermaid for their first major theater production. They were prepped with the movie viewing and storybook the night before, so they were ready and excited.  We invited a couple of their friends and cousin Bella to join us, so it was a full on party!  They did really well sitting for the whole show, just a little restless, but settled down when we moved them into Mami and Papi's laps. We didn't complain about the extra snuggle time. Then tonight, Rafa sang one of the songs in the bathtub. It made my heart sing. 

R wanted a pic with his Papi. So cute. He's starting to ask for Papi more, which is really fun to see. 

clowns

So, this happened this morning.





That would be diaper cream. On their faces. I think they did a pretty good job with the coverage. They might be in charge of their own sunscreen from here on out... They may have just wanted an excuse to play in the bathtub. On the bright side, their faces should be super soft, now...

S: it's because you left us alone upstairs for so long.

Me: are you telling me how to parent???

serious cuteness

bilingualism

Grandmother: Gracias, S! Gracias, R!

S: You can say 'Thanks!' [leave the Spanish to me...]

hide and seek

This game is a super hit with the twins right now. O, of course, comes along for the ride since he pretty much mimics everything his bigs do. I was tickled when I saw how S decided to hide.
