The Kids

A few weeks ago, we came home from church and Little Guy didn't find any pants to put on, this is how he showed up for dinner.

Some friends had us over for a Valentine's party on Valentine's Day.  Buddy made this balloon.

PS made this balloon.
Little Guy drew his own storm troopers.

We got our 3D shapes out the other day for math and the kids built towers for fun.

Apparently B approved this, I just wandered upon it in their bathtub although from the picture they took here, it looks like it was once a tub of water on our toilet.
On the way home from the temple last weekend, B was a nice dad and stopped at the Tyson's Corner mall where there is a Lego Store and an American Girl store.  Last time I took them, PS posed with Kanani's shaved ice stand, so this time she did gymnastics with McKenna.

B and PS are currently doing a daddy/daughter book club (just the two of them).  B is reading Gilgamesh, by Stephen Mitchell, and PS's reading Gilgamesh the Hero by Geraldine McCaughrean.  Not sure if she likes it or if it's more like an assignment for her. He has to remind her to do her reading, but she used math manipulatives to build a model of Uruk. (Uruk is the city at the top of the picture. The triangular prism is Shamhat, hiding behind a bush next to a river, and across the river is Enkidu.)
