There's a butterfly on my bottom, Mommy! |
Catherine is getting very good at forward rolls, and without my help! She jumps and dives into it and lands on the back of her shoulders as she is supposed to. It is amazing! We're starting cartwheels later today. Catherine is also going to the bathroom by herself. You have to watch because she'll run out of the room and then you'll hear the toilet flush and know that she took the small potty and emptied it into the big potty and you run in praying she didn't spill. At least this is progress, right? She is also super obsessed with the birds that come to the bird feeder. She's always looking outside while we're eating to see which bird friends are joining us and she's trying to learn their names. Samantha isn't as interested in what is outside, but she loves looking in the book, especially at the owls, and she likes when we take walks and see the geese and our resident heron. My mom and I took them to feed the birds at Duke Gardens and there were about 8 babies following the girls around, it was incredible and the girls thought they were 'so cute'.
Samantha has figured out how to get water from the fridge door. Silly me, I told Dave to make sure that the water/ice maker in the door was up high but our smart little Sam just got a stool and filled up her cup on her own. Her new phrase is "let's do this!" and she loves to pretend play. I can find them having a beach party on the floor with all their blankets and stuffed animals or waving their wands around making things disappear by saying "bippity bop pity boo". Her imagination seems to know no bounds and I love that about her. And she has gotten so tall! Both of them have, but Sam had a growth spurt and it is not just the fact that I have Jake now who is so small making the girls look so big in comparison. How did they get so big!?
