There is a song that I think was in the first Toy Story, "Strange Things are Happening". I feel like that is the theme song of my life lately.
We've been finding odd things in even odder (more odd?) places. I needed to be somewhere one weekend morning and we couldn't find the keys anywhere. We were both retracing our steps from the night before trying to figure out where we left them. After a half hour of destroying the house we found them in Claire's room in one of her many purse's. We laughed so hard, it was like she was getting ready to leave somewhere. She loves running off with the keys; we've also found them in the bottom drawer in the kitchen and in her toy bin. Claire loves to carry a purse around and shove random things in it. We'll find pieces to her stackable snowman, measuring spoons, craft pom-poms, bracelets, thread, etc. It's always fun to unpack her purse and see what she found. And just yesterday I found a single fruit snack piece in one of my hair-thing holders in a drawer in the bathroom, I'm telling you this girl is a ninja!
Claire has 3 new favorite activities and I've been trying now for 3 days to upload videos but they aren't working. :( Does anyone else have the problem uploading videos to blogger? I can upload them just fine to Facebook. Anyways, she has learned how to turn the knob and open doors. So we had to go buy those door knob covers but they're so hard for even us to use, hopefully she won't figure them out too. She also loves trying on shoes. Levi takes his off when he gets home and she will just stand there and step into and out of them. And her 3rd new trick; she starts by pulling out a dining room chair, then gets up on it and then stands on the table and dances. We're hoping this is not an indication of her future career. So the chairs are on the table now so she can't do that, because as cute as it is, it freaks us out so much!
And I'm trying to upload pics and that's not working either, ugh. Maybe I'll try tomorrow.
