On the Mend

It's been a while since our last post. Unfortunately, we've been busy trying to recover from a second round of illness which hit our family last weekend. For the past week our exhausted kids didn't feel like playing and we didn't feel like blogging. But we're on the mend now, and August and Rose are back at work breaking in their new toddler toys. One of their favorites is the Busy Zoo activity block (left). It's also one of mommy and daddy's favorites because it doesn't take batteries and so it can't make any wacky noises over and over.

They also really love their Chicco Music 'N Play table (which does take batteries and makes some wacky repetitive sounds.) Here they work at playing the keyboard using Old MacDonald's head.
In the last week, we've both had a few moments of panic in which we haven't heard the usual raucous coming from wherever August is playing. When we've raced to find out what's up, we've discovered that he's gotten himself a book and is quietly looking at it. It's a pretty cute sight, but this is the only photo I've managed to get so far.

Where did you get your activity cube?

We need a less noisy distraction as well. The leap frog noises are driving me nutz!

We looked all around for a cube like this one and couldn't find it at any area stores. My mom wanted to buy the kids something special for their first birthday, so she found this one on-line somewhere and sent it to them. Unfortunately, I don't know where she found it. I think she just googled Busy Street or Busy Zoo. Our friends have the Busy Street cube and their three year old twins are still playing with it.
