There hasn't been much "news." Just the same ol' every day stuff. Wake up, eat, change diapers, play with kidlets, hubby works, hang out in the evening, eat dinner, get kids ready for bed.... We interrupt this daily activity by visiting Jennifer & Vincent, bike riding, touring the area, etc.
Ayla, in the past two days, has seemed to enter the teen years. With her comments at least. Haha. For example, we went to the grocery store and I put my grocery list in my mouth while I lifted Sophie into the cart. Ayla turns to me and says, "Mom. Why do you have your paper in your mouth. You are not awesome." Ahaha! Then today, she was playing with her toy kitty cat and she says, "Kitty is a girl, Sophie is a girl, Mulan [the movie she was watching] is a girl. Daddy is a boy. I am a boy, too." I chimed in and said, "well, what am I?" Without hesitation she replies, "You are just a mama." Sigh. Not awesome and not even a girl. Pooh.
Sophie is all over the place. She likes to make us laugh with her silly antics (like throwing herself backwards onto the floor or flipping backwards off the couch. Seriously. You should hear her squeal with laughter!!). She babbles all the time and actually just started using sign language the other day. She says "please" (rubbing her belly), "more" (pushing her fingertips together), and "all done" (flipping the hands over). She's really picking things up and expressing herself.
Today, both rotten girls drew with crayons all over their bedroom door while I was making lunch. Ugh. See, the older Sophie gets, the more trouble they both become as a team. Bah!
Here's some pictures!
