Monsters!

Hehehe. My kids like to play "Monsters" (or bad guys). This means they like to pretend there are monsters in our house and the kids chase them, put them in jail (we don't kill...although they sometimes forget), ask them to be nice, etc. I'm laughing right now in the difference between Kember and Caden. Caden is wacking the "monster" (doorway) with his foam sword very vigorously. Kember on the other had has a wand and she turned the monster into a lollipop. She waves the wand and says, "Lollipop, lollipoop, LOLLIPOP!" Hehehehe. Boys and girls are soooo different. Cole is also starting to really play/mimic them too. Another favorite of my kids is to play kitty (or doggy, but mostly kitty). They crawl around on the floor and meow. Occasionally licking me (gross!). Okay, Kember is the "master" and Caden is normally her pet kitty, but he learned it from her. Anyway, the other day I noticed Cole crawling around and making funny sounds. This was odd because he hasn't crawled since he learned to walk, and what was with the funny sounds? It took a while to realize to figure out he was playing kitty too! I should get a video, it's hilarious (well, probably not to anyone else, but it sure was to me). Funny kids.

I love watching little kids copy other kids. Unless of course it's something like hitting, kicking, biting, etc. Then it's not so funny. But watching a baby boy crawl around and mimic his siblings playing kitty would be adorable. :)

It's hilarious when they start to mimic isn't it? We can't wait to have the girl experience too!

I think that is funny. It sounds a lot like my girls, especially my 2 year old, will do that. One minute they will be a cat and the next minute they will be a dog. Today they added two more characters, a horse and a frog. Erika is the horse and Mackenzie is a frog. Kids are fun.

I so love your reports. Kids are the greatest, but you have to write it down so you can remember just how great.
