August

August has been a busy month for us. We have been able to catch up with old friends, attend a couple of Brewers games, go to a couple of concerts, enjoy the Wille Family reunion, and soak up as many trips to the park as we can. The girls are doing great. Emily loves dancing and jumping around. She is contently saying Mommy Look At Me! She loves showing off her new tricks. Emily is also learning so much at daycare. She loves to share all of the new things she knows about with is. She has become a pretty smart cookie and I am so grateful to our daycare for their love, patience, and teachings. Eliza is all over the place. Her favorite thing to do is to climb up on anything and everything. She has started to play with toys more and is a pretty happy kiddo. Liza loves playing peek a boo and has started blowing kisses. She knows that once you put your shoes on it is time to go to the door and leave. I love the age that she is at right now. As hectic as things can be, we are very very blessed.

Summer Fun

We have been enjoying the spectacular weather this summer. It is so refreshing to have the temps be a little cooler then last summer so we can enjoy the outdoors. In the last several weeks we have spent time taking walks, going to the park, playing in the pool, enjoying neighborhood parties, celebrating birthdays with friends and family, and watching the girls grow.

Emily is definitely a three year old. She is learning a lot. Every week in the summer at daycare they learn about a new animal. She comes home full of information about lions, toucans, elephants, and zebras. She has been taking swimming lessons this summer through Tanya's. At first she was very hesitant but now she is the first one to volunteer to jump in. She is going to be a little water bug in no time. Emily has also become very particular about her preferences. When she doesn't like something we hear about it. She is all about finding what the boundaries are and figuring out just how much freedom she has. Some of her favorite things to do include riding her new scooter (sort of), climbing the monkey bars at the park, singing songs, and pretending.

Eliza is growing up fast. She loves to run around and be anywhere her sister is. She carries around a baby doll a lot of time which is pretty cute. Liza has started becoming a little more selective with her food choices. Which isn't a bad thing as she used to eat anything in sight. She make a lot of noises but no real words yet. She does say mama and dada. She has started using the sign for more and all done which make things a little easier.She has become a pretty good listener and can bring you certain things that you ask for. Eliza can be a little accident prone. Often when we pick her up from daycare she has a bump or  bruise of some sort. All part of getting bigger. She has started sleeping on a sleeping bag at daycare and is doing really well with it. She is still fairly little for her age so it sometimes feel like she is ahead of the game but she is right where she is supposed to be.
