Our Weeks :: August 1-14

Meghan loves playing outside, on a not ridiculously hot morning, she enjoyed playing outside while Daddy and Mommy worked on yard work and sister napped.



She has discovered pencils and enjoys "writing letters" with them. It's just so cute!!


Meghan has been enjoying working with play-doh when Mommy is working on her Bible study during the day. This day she made a lot, a lot, a lot of snakes :)


We call this style - autonomy. She was so proud of her matching ability (and Mama was a little jealous as I'm sure I couldn't pull of mixing patterns in such a way!).


Katie's head holding skills are rapidly improving...she has started sitting in her Jumperoo for a few minutes each day and thinks it is a pretty awesome experience!




Meghan outgrew her old weighted blanket. We went to Hobby Lobby and she picked out the "peffect" fabric for me to make her new blanket. While I worked on the basic constrcution, she was with me in the sewing room and very interested in what I was doing and did lots of imitating.



So snug and cozy under her new blanket.


A relationship is starting to bloom between these two girls. Katie is always giddy to see Meghan and loves to watch whatever she is doing. Meghan enjoys tickling Katie, bringing her toys, narrating the events of her day, and holding her hand. It is SO. CUTE.


Meghan's imagination is awesome...note the baby pink love dragon who lived at her farm one day :)


She's a cleaning super star! A bib for a cape and a spray bottle hanging off of her oven mitt.


Meghan is very into imitative play and doing the same things as Mommy does. She enjoys using a long scrap of yarn and a large crochet hook to "cwoshay" when I work on my handwork.




Katie discovered her reflection in the mirror on the zebra in the pack-n-play.


She has been getting very good at grasping her toys, moving them to her, and getting pieces of them into her mouth.



Meghan enjoys playing mommy to her baby dolls. This day she was making ballerina baby dance.


Meghan brought Katie a few purses - gotta make sure we're raising her right! I'm so impressed with how eager she is to share with her sister - I'm hoping this continues!!


Katie is starting to show a lot of interest in holding onto toys. She is also starting to try to bring her hands together to move toys from hand to hand. She's not at all successful yet, but very interested.
