Here's the Mail

It never fails....
It makes me wanna
Wag my taiiiiiiiiiiiiiilllll
When it comes
I want to waaaaaiiiiilllll

MAIL!


(PS This is William's favorite song right now. He sings it ALL the time. And requests it every night during our bedtime routine. I tried to find a link to it, but it appears people like to do scary things with this song. Go try Youtube yourself if you don't believe me.)



We love getting mail. William is still dragging around his Valentine's day and Easter cards with him. They go with him to bed, up and down the stairs. I draw the line at taking them out in the car with us, but if I would let him, he would. This week has been a big mail week and I wanted to share.

A halloween card from Great Grandma Nona and Great Grandpa Budd

We read it over and over and over and over

Sometimes it is a little scary how closely he studies things. I wonder what he is thinking about. Luckily, I don't have to wonder long. His little mouth isn't quiet for long these days.

We also got a package from some special internet friends! Thank you Nicole!
So exciting! William unwraps while Amelia looks on
I got the coolest knitted (I think?) bracelet! I will be wearing it for SURE this holiday season with my new gray sweater! If I would have known there was something so awesome for me in the package, I would have dressed...well not in a T shirt and sweats!
William got a hat! It is wonderful, awesome and amazing. He has worn it every time we've left the house the last few days. And honestly a lot inside the house. He takes it off occasionally to admire the W patch on the front of the hat. "W is for me! William!" he announces proudly.
Amelia also got a beautiful hat! Nicole left the ribbon long so I could adjust it to her head size (good thinking!). Amelia was very entertained by the ribbon.
She also really liked Nicole's pink card (in her hands, kind of blends in with her outfit). I finally took it away from her when she had chewed a hole in it.
New hats together - I love LOVE Amelia's face in this one.
The two new hats! Just in time for winter! Now I just have to finish (okay, okay, I'll be honest. I haven't even started. BUT! I've been thinking about it!) my crafty project to send back to them.
Ooooooo! More mail on the same day! Another card!
We got a HUGE pile of stickers from Great Grandma Gerry and Great Grandpa Tom. We looked at these stickers for a very VERY long time. We love stickers.

Non-bill mail is the BEST! I am really glad the hats and the bracelet worked! (yup, the bracelet is hand knit!) If only I could get my own kids to like to wear thier hats :)
