Belly
Pigtails and Bellybuttons
I did Solvei’s hair in pigtails again today and she is just so cute I had to take another picture. Of course while I was taking the picture she had to show me her belly too.
Because I had taken Solvei’s picture, Nels wanted his taken too. Solvei apparently thought I should keep taking her picture though, because as soon as I pushed the button to take the picture of Nels she stepped in front of the camera.
But she did let him have a turn.
More playing around
Just stayed home most of the day and watched the kids play. I played with my camera some more, too.
Nels was playing with Solvei’s doll, giving kisses and making her dance, then throwing it around.
Just call him Linus
Nels LOVES his blanket. He loves to go to bed because he gets to cuddle his blanket. He loves to get in the car because there is another blanket we keep in there. Everything is right with the world when he has a binkie, a blankie and a Mommy or Daddy.
When we put him to bed we lay him down and then spread the blanket out over him. He has started to grab the corner of the blanket and rub his face with it, then put it up to his nose and sniff it. Such a funny boy!
You know how you can blow raspberries into a baby’s belly and make them laugh? This morning Nels discovered he can do that into the kitchen table and get the same noise. I started laughing at him so Solvei had to try it too.
Speaking of bellies, Solvei new nickname is “Belly.” She finds comfort in some weird places. She gets a lot of comfort from rubbing her ear that sticks out, or when you rub it. Recently she has been comforting herself by rubbing her belly button. So all the time she has her shirt pulled up and her finger in her belly button.
