Liesel now has 12 teeth, I think. She isn't terribly cooperative with me when I am trying to poke around in her mouth. She continues to be fearless and tries to keep up with her big brother at all times. She is currently on a high chair streak and insists on sitting at the table with the rest of us. She LOVES babies and animals. She carries her dolls around all the time and spends a lot of time putting on and taking off their blanket. She enjoys getting her hair done and wearing pretty clothes. She has a girly side for sure. She is hell bent on learning how to dress herself. It is not uncommon for her to spend 30 minutes trying to put on her pants, shirt or socks. She is a tenacious little girl and has learned how to shake her head "no" very well. She is following in her brother's footsteps and is not much of a talker. She can say "mama", "dada", "nana", "papa" "wow" and "uh-oh", but chooses to mainly grunt. A special talent, the little girl can whistle. So far she has only done it for Grandma Laurie and for me, but refuses to show off her talent to anyone else.
Milo is all boy these days. We are trying to work on teaching him what hands and legs are for and that they should be kept to yourself. He gets in trouble often for tackling his sister and playmates. We continue to struggle with potty training. To be honest it is pretty non-existant. People keep telling me that he won't go to kindergarten in diapers. Man, I hope they are right. Besides rough and stubborn he is also very athletic, funny and has the best imagination. He is starting to get skating down and he is quite the climber at the playgrounds. He has mastered ladders, all kinds of crazy steps and even some of the climbing walls. Favorite Milo says: "I have an idea", "amorrow = tomorrow", "Are you kidding me".
We don't get to spend a lot of time at the farm during this time of the year, but when it is nice Milo and Liesel love getting dirting while Mom and Dad do some work.
Liesel playing with one of Mommy's old troll dolls.
Milo doing crafts with Grammy. This boy loves crafts. If there are stickers, crayons, sissors or glue count him in!
When I left her she was in her high chair, diaper one, onesie snaped. When I came back (in like 1 minute) this is what I found. Note that was the yogurt I was going to have for lunch
Grammy sent Milo some Legos. He is obsessed with Legos these days. They will give us hours of intertainment. Thanks Grammy, from both Milo and Mommy.
Liesel was so sad the Broncos lost the Super Bowl.
We spend hours on the potty watching the ipad. This was minute 50. We got off after an hour, no tinkle.
"Let me give it a shot, Mommy"
