Getting a Little Messy

Lately Kylie has taken a liking to combing my hair.  Usually I don't like anyone playing with my hair, but sometimes I will make an exception for her!  She is really good at combing it, and then other times she is really good at seeing how many times she can twist the brush in my hair...

Then Hayden saw that we were taking pictures and wanted to get in on the fun:

This week was pretty chill.  The weather is nice enough that we go out every afternoon and play.  I am nearly to the point where we go swimming in the afternoon it is getting so hot!

Kylie and Hayden did go for a playdate at Kennedy and Acadia's house while I went to an eye doctors appointment (I can see again!).  They always love playing with friends.

Saturday morning we put the gate up and left the front door open to let in some spring air.  The kids were super excited about it and wouldn't leave it alone.  Then the cat jumped out to sun bathe and both Kylie and Hayden threw a fit that the cat was outside and we weren't doing anything about it!

Later that day we went on our normal walk route (if I try to vary it in any way they both freak out), and the place where we usually dig in the dirt had somehow turned into a mud pit.  Only I realized this too late - Hayden was already getting down and dirty!

So I let them roll around in the mud until they were sufficiently covered and the whole way home they were both trying to shake the mud from their hands.  It was pretty funny.  At home I hosed them down and they each liked trying to clean their clothes and shoes.

Today (Sunday) Kylie got to give her article of faith in front of primary!  She had been practicing all week with me and is a very good parrot.  We went into to the primary room before it started and while she would stand up in front of the microphone she wouldn't say anything.  And this was in an empty room!  Needless to say, when it was her turn to say it during primary she covered her mouth and looked away and let me say it.  Totally knew that would happen!
