Mothers Day

I had a great Mother's Day! I was spoiled rotten by my wonderful husband and I don't think I changed a single diaper all day!! Avery was extra sweet to me all day too - and she got up and wanted to put a pretty dress on right away. And we all went out for an awesome brunch at a vegan restaurant downtown. Here are a couple pictures of me with the kiddos from that morning...





Avery update: Avery is getting really good with her 'spelling'. She can figure out what most words start with when we say them, she can spell a couple words on her own (Avery, stop), and can recognize a lot of words in books. She is also getting really good at writing a few letters (A, M, O, V, X, Y, and sometimes N). Here is her attempt at writing her name...I think it's pretty good for not quite 3 years old!

Collin update: his new trick this week is reaching for his toes. I remember Avery was doing this by around 3 months old, but I think what slowed Collin down was that he is about twice her size! It's hard to lift up those big legs! And of course since I'm twice as busy with 2 kids, I have not been able to get a picture of him holding his toes yet. I swear he was doing it right before I got out the camera to take this picture though...
