As Bobby mentioned in his Sunday Summary, our family traveled to St. Louis this last weekend. It's funny to watch how slowly, but surely, Alice and Robert's lives become more entwined as they learn to play with each other and enjoy activities together. Here they are standing on side-by-side chairs brushing their teeth (please excuse the awkward picture-of-a-mirror-image thing going on...I'll take a photography course one of these days and learn better strategies for awkward spaces and terrible lighting):
Then later, when all the playing was done and we were finally heading home, they were both exhausted. Robert literally couldn't keep his eyes open. He blew weaker and weaker notes until his head drooped and the harmonica slowly slipped from his hands. Sweet, sweet sleep.
Alice wasn't far behind him. She stayed awake long enough to enjoy some of our traditional temple-trip-gas-station-slushie drink, but soon she was having trouble keeping her eyes open, too. She took a couple more bites of cheesy popcorn with her eyes closed, then let one cheese-coated hand fall to the side while the other rested comfortably in the popcorn bowl.
