Frog or Cow?

We had to go to TJ Maxx the other day, and while we were there Arya was very excited about the animal costumes that she saw. She wanted to try on her two favorites - the frog and the cow. I don't think she really thinks of the costumes in relation to Halloween, she just thinks it is so much fun to get to wear costumes. They have trick or treating at Ontario Systems every year for the employees' kids, and since we'll probably go, it would be good to plan ahead and get a good deal on a costume (hooray for TJ Maxx!) while they still have her size. I tried to get Arya to decide between these two, but she just didn't get the idea that she could only pick one. She was asking if she could get one and then bring it back a little later and get the other one. (Maybe like getting books from the library?) Anyway, I took her picture and she keeps asking family members if they want to see her wearing "two costumes". I guess I can't blame her for not being able to pick - I can't decide myself which I think is cuter!!

Jesus Loves Me

Okay, YouTube is working again. Here is the other video that I was going to upload last night. Arya is singing "Jesus Loves Me". She changes the words a little at the end and then she starts to say, "Now show me!" because she wanted to see what she looked like singing in the video! Unfortunately, that gets cut off because I can only record 30 seconds at a time!!

Arya sings, "I love you, you love me"

Arya loves to sing songs. Recently I have been thinking that I just have to get her on video singing her favorites so that I don't forget what it was like at this stage. The song she sings the most these days is the Barney song, "I love you, you love me." She sings it countless times a day, no matter where we might be at the time! (For example, today she put on her little show for Grandma and Aunt Sara in McDonald's.) I know, Barney may not be your favorite character, but it is pretty sweet when your little girl goes around singing that she loves you and about our "happy family" all the time. She changes words a little sometimes (including at the end of this video). This time she sings about how she wants you to "love me through and through". This is taken from the book I Love You Through and Through, which she likes to read.



I guess YouTube is doing site maintenance right now, so I'll try to upload the other video tomorrow. Until then, enjoy the Barney song!
