Pitch and Playdough

The rainy weather this weekend has allowed my girls some quality indoor playtime! After finishing a few Smirnoffs last night, I showed Parker how they made different sounds with different amounts of liquid (water) in them. She was so interested in doing it herself. We took 3 bottles and filled them with different amounts. Then she decided to mix the water and try it at different levels. She played at the table for a good 45 minutes with the bottles. I told her that she was playing with pitch. She had no idea what I was talking about!


Tonight, Harper grabbed her playdough stuff and started playing at the table. She LOVES to play with it. Parker got a little playdough oven for her birthday and Harper is always cooking us dinner. Tonight she played with it for at least 30 minutes before Parker joined in. Then Ozzie joined in and had a playdough snack, then spit it back up on the carpet.

I have spent more time today cleaning up after the dog than I have my girls. He is really beginning to frustrate me. ANYONE WANT A FREE DOG. Don't get me wrong. We love him, but we were way wrong getting another big dog to replace Zeus. The biggest problem is that he isn't Zeus. We didn't think about that! He's a good dog, just too much to handle with 2 kids!


Parker playing with pitch

It took her a few minutes to figure out how to blow on it correctly. Such determination Peek a boo! She cooked the entire time with her mouth open? Don't know why! Rosy cheek girl Dinner's ready!

You guys are bringing your girls up right! The Smirnoff labels will be firmly engrained into their brains! :-)

I think it takes about 3 years for big dogs to calm down! Not that you don't love them, but it takes a while for that hyperactivity to dissipate! That's just my opinion though. Love the pics!
