It seems the the Cupcake’s infatuation with opera is waning a bit. I may have overdosed them; I’m not sure. (It’s not entirely my fault. If you bring a 3-year-old into a library and she asks the reference librarian for ‘op-a-wa moobies’ you will come home with a lot of DVDs.)

At any rate, a capella music is all the rage right now, at least in H2’s world. And once again it’s YouTube to the rescue. We spent a good 25 minutes after nap (yeah!!! nap!!!!!!) this afternoon surfing for collegiate a capella videos. There were some really good ones. And some less good ones. And one that I think DH will enjoy.

Honey, this one’s for you:

ELO Medley - Tufts Beelzebubs, Sept 3, 2007

This week it’s S2’s turn to be VIP. I think it’s safe to say that she believes that she was born for this role. See for yourself -

She was still wearing her crown when I came to pick her up today.



I think that she’s going to like this week at school. A lot.

Amyesq posted an adorable video a couple of days ago of her twins trying to walk, which reminded me that neither DH nor I had ever gotten around to posting this video.

They used to be so little.

We play. Here in the PNW we spend months without seeing much of the sun. On Easter it poured down rain. But yesterday the sun came out, at least for a little while, so we went outside.

We went grocery shopping. (Please excuse the crummy photo quality. They were taken on my cell phone. But, hey, I’ve got photos.)

Then, after ‘nap’, we went to the park. Clever mommy that I am I had stashed the clever little bubble-stuff rings they’d gotten in some Easter eggs on Saturday in my purse. When the sun came out I was ready…

(S2 is in the yellow jacket)

And it’s a good thing that we got out when we did. The weather forecast is for rain, rain, rain and near-freezing temperatures until Friday.

Happy Easter Everyone!

I know what we’ll be eating…
