The kids and I went to Publix today for some groceries for dinner and for the rest of the week. Seems like I can't get out of there without spending a fortune, but anyway.
The kids love to ride in the double "green cart" they call it, which is fashioned like a car, and each child has their own steering wheel. They love to "drive" and then of course reach over and drive the other wheel to see if it makes any difference. I thought I was going to go crazy today with them though, as Kaitlyn started to kick the cart and make noises. Of course, James followed, and I couldn't get them to stop. Hmmm... next aisle over, fruit snacks, 2 for 1. !!! They didn't even eat them... the box was enough. James had "Nemo" box, and Kaitlyn had the "Little Einsteins" box. Whew, crisis averted. I though I was going to have to find a naught spot for James. Fruit snacks to the rescue.
The cutest part of my day: James and Kaitlyn actually giving each other fish face kisses while riding in the cart! So cute!

Good Morning Sunshine, Hello World!
When James was younger and we had just moved into our house here in WP, I opened the shutters in his room one morning and said, "Hello world!" This must have stuck with him because I caught him saying it a few times. It's just one of those things that I don't want to forget.
Every morning when I get Kaitlyn out of her crib, we go over to her window, open the curtains and then the shutters. Oh, wait, let me clarify, SHE opens the shutters after I open the curtains. It's so cute! She always says, "Ittsiiit!" and then pulls them open. This is the first word she always says to me when I get her out of the crib too. It has yet to be determined what the heck it means, but she says it over and over and over again. Of course it should be obvious, but it's not! :)
She also has reversed the process at bed time. We walk over to the shutters and she has learned to push them up and close them. I love it!
Kaitlyn has also crossed into the next danger zone. She can now climb up onto our ottoman and the couch all by herself, although she usually uses the other to push against. Whoa Nelly. Here we go!

"You Look Like Kaitlyn!"
Kaitlyn is 16 months old. She's never had a hair cut, since we're trying to let it grow out so she doesn't have any bangs. It's very cute and she has curls, so I really dread having to cut it. She likes barrettes (to keep the bangs out of her face), but takes them out of her own hair usually within a few minutes of me putting it in. So most of the time at home, her bangs are in her face since I can't really do anything about it.
The kids and I were just playing on the couch, tickling each other and such, and James grabbed my hair and put it in my face. He then announced, "MOM! You look like Kaitlyn!" Ha ha ha.
