The girls pics - taken this weekend

Kids are so cute how they copy what you say, but get it mixed up. Today Abby and I were talking about a coloring project she was doing. I think she got tired of the conversation because she lifted her hands & shrugged and said, "forever mommy" (instead of whatever).






She is so sweet when someone else gets hurt. Many times I've seen her go up to someone whose fallen down on the playground and hold their hand, help them up, or just sat with them while they were sad. Not only friends - but kids she's never met.



Abby also wants to meet everybody. When we go on walks, she wants to stop and meet every kid & dog that we pass. She saw kids playing on a trampoline in another person's backyard and asked if we could play too. I responded, "well, we don't know them." Her quick remedy was, "well, maybe we can go meet them!"



Izzy is the most enthusiastic baby. When we go in to get her in the morning or from a nap, she screams with delight and bounces really high in her crib. She loves to be held upside down, swung around, she just shrieks with laughter. We call her our thrill-seeking baby.



She is also so so sensitive it's pretty funny. You can tell her no in the nicest way - like "Izzy sweetie, please don't open the dishwasher and take out the knives" - and the lower lip goes out and she's SO sad and starts crying because she was told no. Kind of like this, but a lot more . . .



BUT she's also super fun. She has an infectious laugh, and laughs often!! She loves playing games, chase, peek a boo, she is desperately trying to ride Abby's tricycle all by herself but her legs are still a little too short.
