Saturday video jackpot!


This video captures June taunting Henry, her propensity to wear rain boots in the house (because they are the only shoes she can get on herself), and the total cuteness of June saying "Dinosaur." And Henry's in the background yelling about missing puzzle pieces.


Here's June orchestrating T. Rex attacks on the whole family by pointing at who the T. Rex should attack next.


As usual, papa got everyone wound up, so Henry decided to fight the T.Rex with Curious George, which promptly landed him in time out.


June carried this step stool in the kitchen and was trying to get the baking stone off the counter. More importantly, she looks ridiculously cute in this mini skirt (emphasis on ridiculous). Later, she runs into the living room and thinks she's getting chased- with adorable results.


June loves her cars and the big deal this week with both kids is hauling this guy around on the national guard trailer. This turned into a big story with Henry because the guy was carrying one leg to a Lego man. Apparently, he was headed to a leg party to try and find the rest of the lego man. And don't worry, we found him, though both of his hands are missing now.


It's widely known that Sadie loves her some Dora the Explorer (or Doo-ra). It looks like June might be a fan too. I think it's on at the gym day care every morning when we go work out. Last night, she found this book and spent a good 20 minutes entertaining herself. And by the end, she was imitating some of the sounds. I love it when she says "We did it!" (And for extra cute bonus points, she just heard me playing the video and came running into the room with her Dora book in tow.)


Part of our nightly routine involves putting one of June's babies to bed. She covers it up with her blankie then spends some time sharing nuks.

Finally, we didn't forget about Henry. I think it is safe to say that "Dinosaur Days" is his all time favorite book. It is a book that we found at Grandma Cooper's that used to belong to papa when he was a boy. We've read it so much that Henry can recite the entire book from memory. Usually, he can get it word for word. Last night, he was pretty tired, so some of the word are wrong, but the results are still pretty cute. (My favorite page is the one with the giant crocodiles where "SNAP! SNAP!" are underlined. I knew we were destined to be together when even as a child, Brandon was channeling the Wagner family tradition of underlining words for emphasis.)
