Seriously, this girl is amazing. She's been reciting book snippets here and there and loves to sing, proving she pays attention to the small stuff. I had bought a couple books to send to Aunt Jenny and Uncle Matt and was organizing them for the mail. On this, her official second birthday, Vivie spotted Brown Bear, Brown Bear -- a favorite among all kids as far as I can tell -- and plopped down on the kitchen floor to read it. But she wasn't just paging through, she was reading. I stood watching for a while and then finally grabbed the camera and got it on tape. She gets a bit flustered when she knows we're watching, but she still pulled it off. So Vivie and Pip both read Eric
Carle first.

Bedford. Very close to what we want. Nice yard, nice family room, open concept. But small, squished bedrooms on a busy street. As much as we want to lock something in, I think we're gonna wait and see what else comes up. But, this house did boast a snake in the backyard, which I wrangled and showed to Pip lest he forget what an awesome Mom I am.
As if our day was not busy enough ,we rounded it out with a sleepover at Nick and Natalie's. Dinner and hysterics for the parents will remain
un-blogged.
