The Best Kind of Plague and the Best Kind of Cousin

We also caught the Tie Die Plague

My girls have caught the plague... the READING plague.  They love Harry Potter and Roald Dahl more than their MATH.  Imagine.  We're reading A Christmas Carol as a family, but I can't seem to get them away from their other books no matter how much I try (which honestly, isn't too much).  They get ready for get early and quickly if we promise them their half hour or reading time.  It has been WONDERFUL.

If only they cared as much about their math and keeping their room clean...












Benson and Macy are the best kind of cousins.  Why?  Well, simply put, they share.  EVERYTHING.  It's getting them to NOT share their diapers, bottles and everything else that's the hard thing.  When we went to the farmers market one day, Macy even shared her blanket with him.

When I was watching Macy one night, Benson decided she was too tired to hold her bottle, so he did it for her.  See, they're just so sweet!

Love that reading on the bunk bed picture... priceless.
I thought that's hard to beat... but then I saw the picture of Benson holding Macy's bottle. Oh oh oh! That IS TOO priceless... to differentiate from just plain old "priceless" (but at the same time not to diminish the priclessness of the formerly mentioned picture).

...yeah.
