Cute Kids

I thought I would post some cute pictures of the girls I took over the past two weeks. But, let's update first.

Ayla has suddenly grown taller, so today we went pants shopping (fun ... eyes rolling). A few weeks ago, I got her these preschool workbooks by Kemon and she LOVES them. She asks every day if we can do her "work." So, she can cut in straight line, can count to 20 by herself, and now she can write the letters T, L, H, I, O, and Q, as well as the numbers 1 and 0. She is expressing so much interest in learning what words say. It is fascinating watching her absorb it all, question it all, and find more to learn on her own. Ayla is really developing into her own, has become so beautiful that it takes my breath away sometimes, and blows our mind with some of the things she can do. We have begun touring some local preschools, but its been a little difficult to coordinate since some want the parents to visit without children (geez), but we are taking our time.

Sophie is still itty bitty, so everything falls off of her tiny bum. She walks and struts around like the owns the place (until Ayla runs into her, that is). She babbles and talks constantly!! She's trying to learn how to play with Ayla (who isn't keen on Sophie's manner of playing), is darned determined to express her wants, and can light up a room with her grin. She's a doll.
