I just have a second to write a quick update. Isla is on my phone which I'm trying to limit since she could watch princess and dance/gymnastic videos all day. Avery is taking her nap. She naps now once or twice a day but the morning nap is usually 9-12 or so.
Avery...growing so fast! Getting longer and slimmer (losing her chunky legs!)
-Awesome expressions- my favorites are the O she makes with her mouth when she discovers something new or cool and the other expression when she stills her bottom two teeth over her top lip. I'll try to post pics of these. So funny!
-Running all over and loving stairs. Can pretty much go up and down a few alone but has had some tumbles. A couple of bloody mouth incidents. One was when she walked in front of a swinging older child. I remember Isla doing that too.
-Words- No, Mommy, Daddy, Isla, Uh Oh, Owie, Papa, GG, plus lots of baby babble
-Still sleeps awesome at night. Bed at 7 and sleeps til 7.
-Loves Itsy Bitsy Spider...will do the actions with it
Isla...sassy and spirited!
-Yesterday she informed me she wants a brother. I told her she could have a brother or a pool and she picked brother! Not so sure that is going to happen
-All about dance and gymnastics right now. I have her signed up for both this fall.
-Still having complete melt down in the store tantrums. We are working on this. She is very emotional and head strong. Hmmm who does she get that from?
-Riding her bike with the training wheels. Can go over our little sloped curb and up.
-Loves her little neighbor friends Ava, Lily, Cullen and Jamison. Told me she is going to marry Cullen. The week before she was going to marry Max.
-Loves swimming. Lessons are going well. She swims in the neighbors pool with water wings on for now. But at swim lessons she can swim alone for 10 yards or so. Moving up to level Little 4 this fall!
-Still at Step by Step Montessori school. Her teacher Mr. Tom thinks she is going to be a leader of the class this year. One more year of pre-school left and then kindergarten!
