The Silly Things They Do...

All three girls are still really good eaters, which of course makes me really happy! A few of their favorites are: chicken sausage, eggs and sausage, pasta with sauce, fish, cheese, veggie burgers, pickles, and casseroles.

They also are having a lot of fun learning their body parts, so far they know belly, head/hair, ears, mouth, feet, nose, and hands. Suddenly they understand so much of what we say. They all respond if I ask them to get me a book, or get a specific toy, or to get their water/milk/snack. It amazes me everyday how much they know and continue to learn. They learned the touchdown sign in less than a day, and they had never seen it before, unless they were paying attention with all the Sunday football we have had on the past few weeks. Taylor also loves to scream when we say touchdown. When I tell them it is nap time they walk/crawl over to the door and go right up the stairs. I usually ask them to find their blankets before we go up if they brought them down from their beds. "Don't touch" is working very well and we have a new discipline technique that I picked up at the Love & Logic class I am taking. I will expand on that in a separate post.

Random pictures of the girls being the girls!

Taylor being a sweetie, I feel like I have fewer pictures of her lately becasue she is always sitting on my lap or snuggling on me. I love every second of it!!!
What a doll!!!


Sydney has been an absolute peach lately. She is soooooo happy! A few weeks ago things were getting a little tough with her, she was crying more and was not her sweet little self. I decided to try the "brushing" again with her. It is a technique that is used with kids that tend to have high sensitivities to things, or situations. She responded extremely well the first time I did it. It totally amazes me how this child responds to "brushing"! It takes about a week to see results but they are very evident. I realized that initiating the "brushing" was the only thing that had changed since I started to see the improvement in her mood. I love when she is so happy and it seems she is much more confident and likely to make strides toward new milestones, a.k.a walking!!! The morning this picture was taken I had to wake the girls up at 8:00, unheard of. Somehow Sydney manged to get her zipper down on her jammies and get a leg out. I still can not figure out for the life of me how this happened. She really can't unzip it by herself, I have since tried to test her to no avail. Huh???
Brooke, this little girl loves the camera!!! She is always doing something silly, that is probably why I have so many random shots of her compared to her sisters.
Future model??? Look at these poses!!!

She loves to find random toys to make her little chairs, the mini drum is my favorite it looks like she is sitting on the pot. Of course that picture didn't come out...
Bellied up to the bar...huh, wonder who she gets that from...
Such a happy goofball!
