The kids and I watched "Up" this morning. Have you seen it? It's excellent. Here's Ava and I snuggled up on the couch watching.
While we were watching, there was a full blown battle royal happening on the floor beside us:
I don't know what to do about the non-stop fighting because it is really getting out of control. Owen has been beating the hell out of Ethan so the second Ethan gets the upper hand like in the picture below, I look the other way. Ethan's got scratches all over his face and neck and Owen doesn't have a mark on him. If anybody has any suggestions on how to end this madness, I would love to hear them because I am fed up.
Later in the afternoon, Nana came by to visit and had a dance party with the kids.
We didn't listen to Olivia Newton John
but we had a great time all the same. ;)
The other big thing that happened today was Earth Hour. I put the boys to bed and it was just Ava and I. I lit some candles
and we had some fun with a flashlight
and some sparklers (if you can see past the dog's fat head). Unfortunately the sparklers had to be lit inside because of the wind. Number of holes burned into the mat by the back door as a result? One. :(
This isn't the greatest picture but I really like it. Ava was playing with the flashlight on the couch and pretending to sleep.
It was fun and we had a great time. My original plan for Earth Hour was to sit in the dark and run my laptop off the battery. I'm glad I went with something more entertaining.
