Every day the kiddos change. Since I'm with them all day, I don't notice it as much. I only let it sink in when someone will have gone a couple of weeks without seeing them, and notes all of the changes that have taken place. So, here are a few of the changes that have happened recently...
Makayla
- All four of her top teeth have fully come in, so we are at six teeth.
- We have been off of formula since her 1st birthday, and she enjoys a cold glass of whole milk.
- I've mentioned it before, but the girl can scarf down food with the best of 'em. She LOVES food!
- She is so thoughtful with her toys. Joshua used to throw all of his toys at her age, and never really "played" with them. Her favorite toys right now are the Mega Blocks, which she likes to piece together, and a puzzle where you stack shapes on pegs. She gets so proud of herself when she gets it right.
- She likes to mimic, and is starting to say a few words. Some of her favorite words are mama, dada, ball, hi, block, and milk.
- She is experiencing a bit of separation anxiety, which sometimes makes for a very needy girl. I don't mind the extra cuddles ; )
- His vocabulary is exploding, and he is starting to string together longer sentences.
- He loves to dance and sing. Dancing usually involves turning around in circles while nodding his head. His favorite songs to sing right now are "Mama Manatee", "Jesus Loves Me", "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," and songs from his "Choo-Choo-Soul" cd. Whenever Makayla starts crying, he breaks out into "Mama Manatee" to quiet her down (so cute!).
- He likes to tell everyone that he is "two" while holding up his two little fingers.
- He is an avid reader, and will bring book after book to me to read.
- He is a social butterfly!
It's amazing to look back and see everything that has happened recently. It is such a blessing to see my babies learning and thriving!
