week seven.

 

Mabel: She is always coloring, writing and drawing. We have stacks upon stacks of all of her "projects" as she like to call them. Last week she screamed for me to come and look at the "A" she made and to my surprise it was an actual "A". She also taught herself to write several other letters I had no idea about so I took that as a hint and we're now going through the alphabet. It amazes me how great her penmanship is already.

Gus: Reading Mother Goose in his brand new big boy underwear. I can't believe we're at that point with him already he'll be 2 in a couple of weeks and I'm in complete denial. Notice he's wearing a band aid on his little thumb. The other morning Sam left really early for work and left us all asleep. Gus decided to wake up and head into our bathroom to "shave" so he has a tiny little cut on his finger and his upper lip. Scary but sweet at the same time. When we ask him what happened he say embarrassingly says, "I shaved".

week six.

 

 

Mabel: Always twirling around. I can't keep her out of her ballet clothes. 

Gus: We set up a little tent on our patio last week and have yet to take it down because he loves it so much. He likes to read and play his banjo in there. 

 

 

And a couple of extras because they are just too cute!

week five.

 

This weeks photos....

Mabel: Practicing her letters and sounds. We're so proud of her love of learning. She talks about going to school all the time and tells me not to be sad when she goes because she'll always come back.

Gus: He got a sticker from the checkout woman at the grocery store and his response was, "Wow, Say-nk You!"

A beautiful day chasing bubbles in the park.
