Hide and Seek

These days, the boys love to play Hide and Seek.  And, I love playing the game because I sometimes "forget" to look for them, giving myself a much needed break for a few minutes!  Oh come on, admit it...you've done that with your kids, too.  :)

Robert has become very good at hiding.  He used to giggle and shout "I'm in here" whenever I was looking for him.  Now, he hides under blankets in the closet without making a sound.  Jack, on the other hand, hasn't quite grasped the concept.  When we play, I sit on the couch, close my eyes, and count to 10.  I open my eyes to see this:

Jack is standing right in front of me, hiding behind a blanket. 

His next favorite hiding spot is in my room:

This would actually be an ok spot to hide if it were on the other side of the bed, out of view.  But this is what I see as soon as I walk in my bedroom.

And, finally, his other hiding spot, my bedroom closet:

Apparently, if a 2 year old can't see me, it must mean I cannot see him.
