Parley had his nap and more to eat. Now he is looking around. He likes his mama. He likes papa too, just not as much.

The blur

The blur you see is not your eyes inability to focus. The blur is Wade testing our new "jumpoline". The trampoline has a little counter on it that the boys like to rack up. They report, " we got up to 6000 in 70 minutes". They were really proud that they broke 10000. We have only had the thing for a day.

Elowyn loves to show her skills. She liked the exercise video that came with it. The fancy dancing moves are fun. Of course it is also fun to just jump like the boys. The trouble for the boys is that she is to light to activate the counter so her jumps don't add to their accomplishment. I saw Darian doing 50 extra jumps to make up for the ones Elowyn did. Wade was trying to figure out how that worked because Darian's extra fifty were then not counted if they were used to count Elowyn's. "Let's just add 50", he said, but Darian jumped on.

Yeast

We put ingredients in the breadmaker this morning. There is a little widget on the lid that holds the yeast so that it can be dropped in latter. Once Julie and Elowyn peaked in right when the yeast was supposed to drop, so it didn't drop. Luckily that was pizza dough so it didn't bake into a rock.
So today Elowyn was peaking in. I told her to close the lid to keep the yeast in. She said,"Easter? Easter basket?". Learning a language is full of fun misunderstandings.
