  • This afternoon my nephew Cole came to play!

    This was a real pleasure, as I don't get to see him near often enough. 
    He, Dmitry and I had a nice time playing with Lincoln logs, playing
    ball (using plastic bowling pins as bats and a juggling ball as the
    ball....we're big on improvisation around here), watching videos (Miss
    Pattycake has another convert, and where the heck are all my Miss
    Pattycake DVD's?  I could only find one), and in general just playing
    around.

    Dmitry's log cabin beat the socks off mine:

    Cole liked whacking the ball better than most anything else....

    Here's a short video of the two of them playing ball:

  • Looks like a wonderful time was had by all! You rank right up there with
    Julie Andrews for baby sitting, tho much better, I do believe.

  • Cole watched the video about 30 times - he loves it!  He especially likes the beginning where you say "you got it" or something.  Then he claps and cheers and I have to join in.  No lack of self esteem over here!

    I feel awful that I looked at your living room, and said "what a mess", then gave you a pittance of a candy bar, collected Cole and left!   ARGH - you must have said when we left. 

    Next time (tomorrow?)  (kidding)  I will clean up!  Many thanks for watching him and taking the well-loved video! 

  • No, no....it took me 15 minutes, max, to put away. I've got it down to a science.

    Glad he liked the video! He was cute, wasn't he? {V}
