Sing song

Eve has become quite the singer lately.
She knows most of the alphabet song and parts of other songs.
She gets very happy when someone else sings and she can jump in
with the lines she knows. Today she was sitting by me and
started singing a little medley. It went something like this…
“Twinkle twinkle little star, now I know my abcs, have you any
wool, yes, yes, three bags full.” And so on. I was trying hard
not to crack up. When we first took away the plug I used to lay
down with her every nap/night and I sang the alphabet song to
calm her now. Now she jumps in and sings along, so I’ve been
trying to mix it up and sing different songs. Her singing along
is cute, but doesn’t help the sleep efforts :)

She has also taken a liking to the toy computer
(“puter!” she calls it and Lex calls it “my very little toy
computer”). Whenever I sit down at my computer she runs in and
grabs the toy computer and sits right down. The computer plays
little games and gives you the option to play in English or
Spanish, and she usually prefers Spanish. Guess I can’t argue
with that. The other day she sat down next to Alan and I ran
for the camera :)

We put up our tree on Wednesday and decorated it
this morning. The kids had fun. I felt bad though because our
tree is small and weak (poor tree!) and Lex tried so hard to
put the ornaments on and they just kept falling off (poor
Lex!). I had to give him the lightest possible ornaments
otherwise they all came cascading down. We ended up with one
broken one, but it’s just a small break and I’m hoping I can
glue it back together. But we had fun, so that’s all that
matters :) I tried to get a picture of them together, but no
luck, so here is a picture of Lex and the tree.
