I hesitate to post when I don't have pictures, but I feel like our kids are growing up so fast I wanted to jot down a few things.
Ollie is talking like crazy. Everything is a sentence now. He plays pretend (his cars talk to each other, go to the playground, get chased by the tractor he calls "Frank", get in fights, get sad and need cozies, etc) all the time. He is starting to play with other children instead of just near them. Unfortunately his 2 best little buddies moved last month (and their moms!) so we have been recruiting new play mates. Luckily we got a really cute video of Ollie and Esther playing cars together and actually having their cars interact for about 5 minutes. It was adorable. Ollie also memorizes all of the books we read him and songs too. He can sing ABCs, child of god, happy birthday...but its very hard to get him to do it. He also is a beast when he gets teeth and unfortunately has been getting a molar for the last week or so. Eeeh.
Henny is just the sweetest little thing ever. She sleeps through the night 8:00-7:30 about half the time but when its not the whole night its still about 8:00 - 5 am, eats and then goes right back to sleep. In the last week she has mastered the pincer grasp, passing food from hand to hand, feeding herself puffs and gerber wheels, saying "babababa", and has been a sitting up pro for 6 weeks or so. She does this great thing where she scrunches up her nose and breathes really fast and loud through her nose. She looks mischievous and hilarious when she does it. Oh and she got her first 2 bottom teeth last week within 2 days of each other and was fine. A little whiny and a lot drooly but no big deal (Ollie would wake up numerous times at night screaming for at least an hour solid for about 3 nights in a row each time before he got a tooth - YUCK.) She thinks Ollie is the greatest thing ever and I love driving in the car with them and hearing them just start laughing at each other in the back. Cute.
They are cute little ones. Will post pictures as soon as I remember to put my computer and my camera/phone cord in the same place.
