775th Post

This is my 775th posting! Since our computer is still on the outs, here is the short of it:
Harper:
Let me introduce you to her little friends: Mamopes, Jimmy, and Sugarbear (or Sugarbelle or Sugarbounw). These are her new imaginary friends. She gets into a lot of arguments with them, but what you most need to know about them is that "Jimmy said stop!" According to Harper, anyways. I'm not sure what you should stop doing.
She loves to go "Fimming", or swimming.
Time-out is her designated seat in the house, she is there a lot for not keeping her hands to herself, and usually on Graham and Lucy..
She loves going on "motocycle rides" on her pink big wheel and we take the whole gang out after dinner many nights- Harper on her motorcycle, Lu on her bike (also a motorcycle), and Graham in his mini-coup- he hasn't graduated to hog status just yet.
Potty training- not even close. She loves wearing her "tinkybell underwears" but just ends up whizzing in them every time.

Graham:
GW started waving "bye bye" today, he was very proud!
He loves to say "Dada" and when I say "No, say 'momma!'" He smiles, shakes his head "no" and goes back to saying "Dada". Note, he doesn't follow Ian around crying for what he wants, he still reserves that kind of love for me- gee thanks!
He sort of listens when I tell him to stop or tell him "no". But he likes to ignore me when it comes to chewing on flip flops, pulling on lamp cords, tearing up books or eating sticks- just like reggie used to. I'll let you know if he decides to eat our photo albums.
He's cruising and his favorite place to do so is in the girls' room. He doesn't like walking with walking toys just yet, the movement scares him.
Two teeth are still threatening to come through.
The pool is an endless amount of fun for him. He splashes in the beach area and cruises around the sides of the pool. He puts his face in the water and splashes for hours.

Lucy
Just finished up vacation bible school last week with her bff Ronin. The theme was superhero Jesus and came with a cd-imagine my excitement each and everytime we listen to it in the car.
The vegetable garden is her passion and she loves going out, picking a tomato, and putting it directly onto her sandwich for lunch.
She is OBSESSED with her birthday and the planning of it.
She loves doing workbook pages and other "school work" and is super-excited about starting kindergarten. Last night she mastered writing the number "5" and was so proud I thought she might burst.
She is taking tumbling on Saturdays but find ways to thrill herself the other 6 days a week with constant jumping, balancing, climbing, spinning, going down things headfirst and never showing any fear.
Swimming is her summer love and the romance continues. She is a diving, jumping, cannonballing fool at the pool!

Ok, it has taken me 1.5 hours to write this and I am calling it a day!
