"Buck Buck Chicken!!"

Fabulous Friday!! That's the day Logan (1 1/2) comes to spend the day because his daycare only works M-Th. He arrives at 7:30 or 8:00, and then we invite Gus (2 1/2) to come for Cousin Adventure day. I enjoy watching the two of them learn to play together and get along. It gets busy, and neither of them has really learned to play cooperatively...but we're getting there. The day is still filled with runny noses, slobbery kisses, potty runs for Gus, diaper changes for Logan, snack time, sharing, cars, and building blocks!






During Logan's naptime, I brought out a new stuffed animal I had found.....a chicken!! Gus and I had been to the bookstore, Wild Rumpus, several times, and he had been so enamored with the live chicken that runs around in there. So when I brought out the chicken today, we called him Henry the Buck Buck Chicken! But to hear Gus say it, is the best! We started playing hide the chicken....and Gus loved it! He'd cover his eyes and I'd hide Henry. Then as he looked, I'd make the buck, buck sound get faster as he got closer. It was hilarious to watch him looking. Then when it was his turn to hide it, I'd come out to look....and he'd get so excited for me to find Henry, that he would say, "Here he is Gramma! Look here, look here!!!" Then it was my turn again. I can't believe how many times we played hide the chicken!

Then there's Logan..such a busy guy!! He's trying to climb anything he can....especially if it gets him to something electric or electronic. Today he learned how to run the dimmer on the diningroom switch. Cool!!
Fridays are busy and wonderful days! Jenn comes to pick up Gus at noon after she gets Carl at Pre-School. So it's 4 little ones for lunch and chaos for awhile. Jenn and I try to catch up while we're tending to the needs of all of them. Logan is so interested in Louise...saying "baby" and giving her hugs. Scrambled eggs and English muffins today.
Jenn "released" her new blog to me today. It's so exciting...and so beautiful! She's really done an excellent job. Someday I'll figure out how to do some of the special effects...but for now, I'm just keeping up with my babies.
