Avery learned how to spell her last name! And she is so excited to write both names now. Since she started in her new preschool class in September, she has been keeping a daily 'journal' and it has inspired her to do more drawing. She spends so much time coloring amazing and creative pictures lately, and we've been encouraging her to 'sign' her name on all of her pieces of artwork so we know who the artist was. Now she signs her whole name because she's so proud that she knows her last name too!
Collin can stand on his own! It is only for a few seconds at a time, but he's really strong and gaining more balance every day. I think he will be an early walker like Avery was. I know he wishes he could keep up with her, so that is his motivation.
Speaking of 1sts - I had my first weekend away from both kiddos on my own. I met my mom for a much needed girls weekend in vegas. We had so much fun and it was a perfect time to get a way and relax for a few days. I hope we can do this again soon!
Finally - we did one last new thing...Bowling! Avery was REALLY excited the whole way there. And for about 2 frames of the actual bowling. After that, all she wanted to do was go play the arcade games like ski-ball that they had right behind our lane. But I convinced her to make it through the whole game because I was having my best bowling game ever! Avery was good luck for me! Then we played skiball and she won a tootsie roll with her tickets. Good times!
