February 9th:
Drew and Daddy made a "juice box boat" that he saw in one of his new favorite books, Can You See What I See? (with Seymour) by Walter Wick. They put it together AND it actually floated!! Then, of course, they had to make Katie one as well, that one ended up a milk carton boat, but it floated just as well!
Drew is doing great in school. It's hard to believe, but we'll be registering him for kindergarten this weekend!






Februrary 9th:
Katie's doing great in school too. She loves it and asks every day if today is a school day for her! She talks a lot and is very clear and has very important things to say! She is going to be 3 in a couple of weeks and wants a Dora cake for her birthday. She saw some princess dresses at the store and wants to get some of those for her birthday, too. Maybe she won't be such a tomboy after all!




February 13th:
Despite having played out in the snow all afternoon, Katie just had to try on her new swimsuit that we ordered! She paraded around in it for quite a while, and it took a lot of convincing to get her back into regular (winter!) clothes!








January 21st:
Just a cute picture of Alex. Still amazed when I see those blue eyes! She's been walking since Thanksgiving, she just roams around the house finding whatever she can to play with! She's very persistent when it comes to the things she knows are no-no's. We call her Boomerang, because you take her away from a no-no and she'll walk away like she understands then do a 180 and head right back toward the aforementioned no-no. She's quite funny!




January 26th:
Alex roaming around the house. Before she started walking, Alex would say "Drew, Katie, dada, mama, bye, hi, cheese" and a few other words. But, once she started walking, she completely quit talking. Over the last few days (last week of February) she has really started babbling again, and now she'll say "Hi" and "Wheee" and a few other imitating sounds. She'll babble and we'll say "Huh?" back at her and she'll say "Huh?" and that will go back and forth several times!
