Play Time/Nap Time

I love watching what the kids come up with during play time when I'm busy with the baby. They're usually on the same page with their play, too, which is sweet!

Like today, Nathan was singing "happy birthday" in the playroom while making something at the play kitchen. He came in the living room, still singing, and handed Faith a plate and fork. She looked up from her book in excitement and squealed, "My cake! Thank you Nay-Nay!" And she began to eat the imaginary concoction. They can be so sweet to each other - most of the time :)

Later today, while I fed Ruth in the living room, the big kids snuck upstairs to get their blankets. Once they were back, I peeked around the corner to find this:

I guess the imaginary cake left them feeling tired after the imaginary sugar wore off. So they decided to take an imaginary nap. ha ha  Don't be fooled - they had NO intention of actually napping. They just wanted to pretend :)

It never fails to make me smile when I see the things the kids come up with on their own :)
