Just Being Them

My kids are silly.  I guess all kids are, but mine are extra silly.  They keep it entertaining around here.  Sometimes it's super annoying and I can't take anymore silliness and why can't you just sit still and act normal?!  But then I usually end up laughing.  Because of the silliness.  I guess it keeps me from being too strict and librarianish.  Yep, I just made up a word.  They would laugh at that.  And then I would scold them for laughing too much...yes, I actually did that this week.  They were laughing at a book I was reading.  This book.  It was funny, but then they were just fake laughing and then just laughing at each other's ridiculous laughing.  So I threatened to stop reading the book, which they found silly, which it kind of was, so we all laughed some more.  I guess I could have a more horrible life, right?  Here are some pics from some of our silly moments around here...

 Magnifying glasses are fun.  Hurray for science!

When your mom wants to take a photo of both of you smiling, then making silly faces is super fun.

When your mom tells you you look like an adorable little secretary in your dress, you grab your fake glasses and do your best to act the part.  I like this photo because she looks like she has the tiniest dimple in her cheek here, which she doesn't normally, it really only shows when she makes this weird face.

There's never a dull moment around here!
