We were out dancing out at the Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles) last night, and A was really getting into it. A lady asked her how she had so much energy and A hollered back "CrossFit!"

W dresses up like her Nana - you probably notice the glasses and socks, but she also apparently raided Nana's dresser for the earplugs she's holding too.
I love A's Forest Foxes class - she came running up to me today when I picked her up, holding out a handful of leaves and yelled "Look, Mama! It's nature's toliet paper!"

We got in the car this morning, and W asked, "Where we goin', Mama?" I said, "CrossFit." She replied very seriously, "Good. I rreeeallly need to workout."

Ok, so my girls are arguing over an imaginary pool. I told them to each find a different pool, and but A is protesting that she wants THIS imaginary pool and W won't get out of it.

I just witnessed this conversation between the girls -

A: W, a you not feelin' good today?

W: (silence)

A (annoyed, waving finger, other hand on hip): W! Tell me honestly, are you sick today?

W (whispering): yyyyeeessss...

I asked Daddy to put the girls to bed tonight so I could wrap up some dishes after a highly contested game of Settlers of Catan (which I won, btw). A started fretting and said "But I want Mama. Mama and I are best friends." Moments that melt a mother's heart.

Both girls screaming and crying, then A says "Mama! We were having biting fight and then W bit me!!"

Me: sigh.
Our science project today was to sort and classify a bowl of shells we got at the beach. I started explaining to A what we were going to do, and before I could finish, she had all of them sorted out. I asked her if she learned that from watching Sid the Science Kid, and she shrugged and said "no, I just like things to be sorted". Well, I guess we can check that off the list.

A ran up to tell me excitedly when I picked her up from her first day at Forest Foxes (outdoor preschool) - "Mama, this is a really cool school!"

What a great day at the fair! A little bit of rain, but once it was passed the weather was wonderful. A was like a kid in a candy shop with her unlimited ride bracelet (apparently she's exactly 36" this year!). W loved the pony ride and talked about it all the way home - "I'm ridin' a horse! I LOOOOVEEE ponies!"
