Rainy day fun

Owen and I tried a new kind of playing today. As it is pouring rain we couldn't go play outside or even go for a walk. So after running some errands we decided to skip playing with toys (that is so "this morning") and we pulled up the window blinds and watched the rain come down.

Owen saw neighbors coming home and cars driving past. He loves to look out the window now! First he played with the chair and the curtain, making a fort (can you beleive the "fort" playig has started so soon?!), and then he decided that standing up and looking out the window (and licking the window) was even funner (yes, funner is a word). Now I have one more place to keep clean - the window and window sil. You can see the lovely dead fly in the photo on the right. That was pre-cleaning. The fly and his dust-bunny buddies are all gone now.

That's great! The fly part was funny ... Klaudia Sheepwash told me this nice story of the first time Nolan played in his room by himself. She saw a fly on the windowsill and went to grab some paper towel to remove it. She came back to find half a fly on his tongue and the other half swallowed. *L* Glad to see you avoided that misfortune!
