Tidbits

Over the weekend, we purchased some new entertainment for Spencer - a beautiful panda molly named Bamboo, and a silver molly named Bubbles (because it likes to hang out near the bubbles, according to Violet).

Spencer has sat on the tank's lid several times, but Seb hasn't seemed to notice the fish tank. Thankfully - we don't think the tank would survive him sitting on it!

Violet was very excited to go to PetSmart to get the next two fish for our tank, which seem to get along swimmingly with Flash and Blaze.

Cora, surprisingly, was not excited. She didn't want to get ready, didn't want to go, didn't care to add to our tank. When I pulled her aside to ask what was up, she admitted that she was no longer excited about our fish, about feeding them, about cleaning the tank, etc. They weren't as fun as she had thought.
Ha! So typical!
Our girls might go to bed at 8:30, but they often can't fall asleep for a solid hour.

The other night, I went to bed myself to find that Violet, instead of falling asleep, had set up a shop in her room.

Her sign makes me smile every time I look at it, from the huge smile on her self-portrait, to the snowman doll in her hand, to the hashtag in the name of her shop. Goodness! She's hash-tagging!
The sign was on the floor, in front of all the nicely arranged items she's hoping to sell. From stuffed animals to jewelry, Violet is offering all your essentials.




















Cora is learning the violin at school. Apparently, Sebastian was enjoying her practicing so much, he tried to prevent her putting the instrument away in its case.











Meanwhile, Spencer was hoping Violet could sneak him into the classroom.
