Headlamps, Sighs, and Lullabyes

The Maisch boys had a fun week this week! Ron found these cool headlamps on sale for $2 each and the boys have had a blast wearing them. Around the house, outside in the dark, walking home from a friend's house, in the bathroom (Scottie says, "They make my pee pee blue!") and they're perfect for reading a bedtime story, too. And it was mild enough for lots of outside playtime, too. They wore their lightweight jackets and cool backwards baseball caps instead of heavy winter gear. They just thought they were so tough. Scary little hoodlums, aren't they?



This week was also big for us as parents. We registered Robbie for Kindergarten on Tuesday. We're still not sure if we'll send him on time or delay him by a year (we're waiting till mid-summer to decide for sure), but it was a big day. One of those, "I can't believe my baby is old enough to start public school!" moments for me.




Thankfully, we have our baby girl to keep us in those teeny tiny wonderful moments. Allie is all over the place these days. Allie is all over the place these days. Crawling under chairs, peeking through the coffee table and pulling up on everything. She'll be driving for real before we know it!









And, in the middle, there's Scottie, our sweetheart. He's getting more and more big boy everyday, but he's still my little snuggler who cuddles with me every chance he gets. And he's showing that sweet side with his baby sister, too. While Robbie was at school one morning this week, Scottie came with me to put Allie down for her morning nap. As I put her in her crib, Scottie asked, "Can I sing her Twinkle Little Star?" After I said yes, he climbed up on the footrail and began singing. I ran downstairs for the camera and caught just the last line. So stinkin' cute!!


Love these kids!
