Jingle, Jingle!

Harlon has taken a sudden interest in his dragon slippers.  He has had them since he was about 10 months old.  When we first got the he did NOT like them on his feet.  I would put them on ready for some laughs as he crawled around and the bells (which are in the toes of the slippers) went jingle, jingle, jingle.  Instead H would whine and kick until the slippers came off. 

It's a good thing I held on to these glorious green gems.  Now he asks me to put them on by saying with much excitement "on" which sounds more like "own" (too cute).  I ask him to sit down and he promptly does, I slip them on and off he goes.  Jingle, jingle, jingle with a little march in his stride.  The part that leaves me in hysterics is that they are now too small so I have to cram his feet in them and by the 2nd or 3rd lap around the room they are almost off his feet.  Eventually 1 slipper falls off and the other is still on and H is STILL marching around the room, jingle, jingle, jingle. 

And, if this isn't good enough my washing maching is broken so my child has shorts and no shirt this morning.  I have been putting off taking my sweet neighbor up on her offer to do laundry at her house thinking I could get by until the repairman comes.  This morning I opened up Harlon's dresser and there were no shirts!  Time to stroll next door and wash.  :)
