On a Walk...

For some reason, I haven't taken very many pictures the last couple of weeks. I need to get back in the habit! Joe took these photos of Maya with his phone on one of our many walks/tricycle rides by the high school. On the weekends and evenings, there are miles of sidewalks for Gabi to ride her tricycle as fast as she can! We even spend some time playing on the turf football field.

Not much is new -- we've just been trucking along. Gabi has started preschool and LOVES it. They made applesauce the other day and she was proud that she already knew how (we made a whole batch the weekend before to can). She goes to school Tuesday and Thursday from 8:30-12:30 and has done suprisingly well. She also started swimming lessons two nights a week and she REALLY likes that! Gabi had her 3 year old check-up (the last time she went to the doctor was for her 2 year old check-up so she has stayed healthy!) She was 40.5 inches tall (99%ile) and weighed 34.2lbs (80th %ile). She pretty much talks and sings nonstop. A lot of people don't believe me when I say this, because she won't talk much at all around people she doesn't know well.

Maya is doing great as well. She has gotten into the habit of using expressions instead of words. I've heard her say lots of words, but she usually chooses not to talk. She knows how to say yes, but instead she will just nod her head "yes" instead of actually saying it. It is a little frustrating, but Gabi is more than happy to talk for her. :) Maya is one happy little girl and just a snuggle bug!

Hopefully I will have more pictures soon! Take care! Tara
