Today, Natalie and I had a great day playing outside. We started out with a picnic, and then Natalie wrote a long list of words with her chalk while Jocelyn hung outside with us for a little while. When Jocelyn went down for a much needed nap, Natalie and I played everything from catch to soccer. We just couldn't go inside on this gorgeous day, so the two of us went to the park and played hide-and-seek, tag, and had fun swinging and running around on the playground equipment.
As we were walking home, and after using our hand sanitizer, I think I mentioned to her that we needed to try and stay healthy so we could have fun later this week. I believe this is what prompted her nighttime prayer to include praying for health so that we could see her cousins, grandparents, and Santa Claus later this week. Nate and I both smiled at this part of her prayer.

Bug-a-boos
Natalie has recovered from a bug that she had earlier this week. She was very happy to go back to school today, and we are happy to have her back to her normal self again. Yesterday, I brought some games up from the basement. I was hoping one of them was Checkers because I thought Natalie might enjoy this game. Unfortunately, it was Chess. I was not ready to teach it to her last night. Today, when she got home from school, Natalie wanted to play a game of "Chest". I guess we'll have to work on teaching her the game and the correct name of it as well.
Jocelyn has taken an interest in playing with her feet. It makes for an interesting diaper change. She has also started to blow raspberries, which causes much drool to accumulate on whatever she happens to be wearing. Another fun accomplishment of Jocelyn's has been to play with her toys. She can now hold them, and get them consistently into her mouth. Jocelyn has also been enjoying her rice cereal this week. Since she was sad after most of her bottles because there was no more, I decided to call the nurse and ask if it was okay to start feeding her the cereal a couple of weeks early.
