What's happenin'?

Whew....it's busy with two babies! So, here's the run down on what's been happenin' at our house....

Allie....
  • got some new boots, which she LOVES!


  • ADORES her baby brother! (in fact, she loves to share with him....thus the reason I had to pull two Cheerios from his mouth yesterday!)


  • had her first playdate with her friend from school, Emma (22 months)


  • has perfected counting to 10 (well, actually I've heard her count to 11), mastered her shapes, and is currently practicing singing her ABCs and learning her colors.


  • has received her first report card (and I've had my first parent-teacher conference), and it appears as though she is a well-behaved, brilliant child! Yeah!
  • loves playing with stickers (see the picture of Will below as evidence of this)
  • loves to color and play "Rosy" (that's Ring-Around-the-Rosy for those of you without small children)
  • has become a Lion King fanatic (thank goodness for the break from Barney and Elmo!)
  • is still unzipping and taking her PJs and socks off every night in her crib before she falls asleep, necessitating me going in every night and re-dressing her before we go to bed
  • is still a Daddy's girl.




Will.....

  • has learned to roll over from his back to his belly (he's been rolling from belly to back since Christmas day).
(The first time Will ever rolled to his belly)

(The first time he rolled to his belly and got his arm all the way out from under himself)


  • had his first playdate (with Emma's little brother, Neil, who is 2 1/2 months old....see Allie's entry for info on Emma)


  • LOVES being adorned with Little Mermaid stickers by his Big Sis (take note of his bib)!...and yes, Allie did this all by herself without any prompting or suggestions from anyone....just like she gave him Cherrios without prompting by anyone!
  • has his first tooth (bottom left) just starting to peak through the gum (no pictures yet, it's too tiny!)
  • goes to bed at 5:30pm and takes NO BOTTLES until he gets up at 6-6:30am!
  • eats oatmeal for breakfast each morning, veggies (squash and peas, so far) for dinner each night
  • only has eyes for Mommy :-)


There's so much more to tell, but I have a giant playroom that's begging to be cleaned :-) More fun stories to follow....
