Updates on the girlies

Where, oh where does the time go? Seriously! I have been meaning to update this blog for a week now! So if anybody is still checking up on us (are you out there? leave me a comment and let me know!), here's a quick rundown on our lives at the moment:

Abbie: learning to read! She has 2 or 3 books that she can read through really well. It amazes me how well she is doing, but then again, I was reading before Kindergarten also. Must take after me...oh wait :)

                february 188  Abbie and her very favorite blankie, Babe

Adelle: hmm...besides striving to torture her older sister at every turn? Honestly, these 2 fight horribly! I know it doesn't help that Abbie cries about every little thing (more fuel for Dell's fire!). Then there are times when they are the best of friends. I never had a sister, but I'm sure it's all completely normal. Adelle is writing more and more words every day and getting super excited about Kindergarten in the fall. And so is her mama

Natalie: potty-training - round 2. She is actually doing pretty well, and I don't have any trips out of the country scheduled so maybe we can nail it this time! She is in full-blown "Terrible 2" mode now, so if you see us at the store...run away quick! She has thrown 2 massive tantrums in the last week - both in public places. I think she's secretly reading Small Fry's lessons! She is talking up a storm now and is so much fun to listen to. Her favorite phrases are "Oh my gosh!", "I not know", and "I AM" (with as much attitude as she can muster! In response to anything I ask her to do...whether she is actually doing it or not) Oh yes, never a dull moment!

In other news, we are in the process of remodeling our bathroom, which should be finished this weekend. Stay tuned for before and after pictures. We're excited!

AND.......we're getting a new aunt/sister-in-law! My brother proposed to his girlfriend of many years and she said yes! Exciting times :) Love you, Danielle!

 

So, that about wraps it up. Remember to leave me a comment and let me know that you care ;) Happy Thursday!
