Strike a Pose

Hannah has been striking some interesting poses whenever the camera comes out. In the picture with Leah smiling Hannah is yelling "Cheeseburger!". Joseph may actually be saying Cheese in his pose with the soccer ball, and Leah is just giving me the "You're crazy mom" look when I was trying to capture the kids having fun in the play tunnel. This weekend they had lots of fun playing with Bubbie and Poppa (ah hah hah ha haaaah - which is what the girls came up with, like a little joke that no one else gets) while we helped Aunt Gina load her things onto the Uhaul to move back to Evanston for her new job. They made brownies, did some artwork (and if I'm not mistaken they did this without Leah coloring her tongue and Hannah tattooing her hands and feet which is usually what happens when I let them color while helping Joseph with his homework each week), Joseph did some connect the dot alphabet exercises, and of course there was some Scooby Do. (it would not be a weekend without any Scooby Do, though today Hannah expressed her desire to watch Spiderman instead). Jay's got the new tv all ready to go in so we're going to wrap up the weekend with a family room viewing of Megaminds with some popcorn and lemonade (which is Joseph's favorite drink, when we make it he stirs and then sticks his nose in the pitcher to see if it "smells ready").
