Rituals and pillow crashing

Today Grace and I had a fun filled day with friends which included swinging, painting, bunny, bear, and of course a bath in the middle of the day (even though nobody was particularly dirty).  The bath seems to be part of a "this is what we do when we go to the Parker's ritual."  If Grace and Caleb had their way bear bathing would definitely be part of the "going to the Parker ritual" but for the sake of healthy kids no bear washing was allowed today. 

This afternoon Duncan and Grace made a wall of pillows and then rode through them on a couch cushion! It was so much fun Grace kept on saying "more" and to emphasize the more, she would verbalise it and than frantically sign "more" at the same time. 

First you build a wall

Then you crash it and rebuild!

And when your father says one more time, quickly reinvent the game to ensure more playing time…this game I call the "princess and the pea"
