We taught Lily how to conduct music when we sing. We showed her that the faster she waves her hand, the faster we sing. Well, Amara picked up on it, and while we were singing their bedtime songs last night, both girls began to conduct our song. It was cute. So I wanted to see if Amara would remember how to conduct this morning, and it appears that she remembers!

A Good Morning Serenade
Lily's vocals are hot! Lily asked me to listen to a song she made up this morning. I loved it so much, I asked her to sing it for our blog. Besides changing the lyrics and the tune, the song is exactly the same. As a side note, my cute daughter, Lily, blessed the food last night and she also prayed, "bless Amara to calm down." Amara was whining for food while Lily was praying. It made Steve and I smile.
Bye Bye frogs...
This past weekend, Steve and I (Lani), decided now that the frogs were frogs, they were starting to really stink. So, it was off to the reservoir to give them a new home. Well, having never been to the particular reservoir we were going to (Bullock or Cottonwood), we got lost. Luckily, we found a small convenience store/gas station (Shirley's). So, we stopped and I went to ask for directions. When the clerk found out that I was going to be setting some tadpoles and frogs free, she asked if she could have them. She explained that she has kids and they just love to play with the little frogs and she has a ditch by her house that they live in. I happily gave her the entire habitat. So, our frogs have a new home.
Sorry there's no picture. I brought my camera to take a picture at the reservoir, but I gave the frogs away unexpectedly and forgot to snap a pic before I gave them away.

ALMOST frogs!
Here's my attempt to show you the ALMOST frogs basking on the rocks. The frogs really blend into the rocks, so good luck seeing them. They're really cool and cute in real life.
They grew!
We were gone for a week or so and my neighbor watched our tadpoles for us. When we came back, they had grown a lot. The littlest tadpoles seem to have front legs, whereas the larger tadpoles are fat and front-leg-less.
