Well let's see what we have for an update on the kiddos....
Abigail has been enjoying preschool...it is just Mommy's Preschool but we go through the big and little letters and we have been trying to learn the larger number from 11-20 but it has been a bit more difficult then we thought so we are taking that slower then before. We are also learning a scripture verse and sign language for the letters we learn just a fun side things. Abigail loves to trace her letters and has gotten really good at several of them. Of course we are only up to letter E this week with a review week every 5 letters.
Other interests of Abigail is BABIES! She has gotten to be quite the mother with her little ones. She plays with her dolls and imitates whatever she can think of feeding, disciplining, teaching, and of course putting them down for naps. She has also picked up on the taking them to the doctor thing which I think is funny since neither her or Nathan have been to the doctor for quite a while!
She also keeps mom on her toes with the smart little comments she makes and the way her conversation has become more formal. The other day I told her we would do something "later" for the second time and she looked me straight in the eye all serious and asked, "Mom, when is later?" No more vague answers for her!
Nathan is TWO and BOY! That pretty much sums up what he has been up to lately! I was concerned about him for awhile that he may be color blind as he ALWAYS said that red was BLUE...very consistently but I have come to believe that he just doesn't know his colors so we have started working on that! His vocabulary has grown remarkably though and even though it is still hard to understand him sometimes, he amazes us with all kinds of talking!
He is definately a boy and loves to play with tractors, trucks, and farmers! However recently I did get a great black mail picture of him wearing only a diaper and necklace...it will be great on one of those slide shows when he gets married! HA! Marion was a little concerned but I told him to not sweat it because he definately is BOY!
He is also a climber! We just moved the kids' rooms around and I told Marion that now that the air conditioner isn't in the window to keep him out, we HAVE to have a windo guard because before we know it, Nathan will be on the roof! So we installed that today! Mommy feels much better about that! You wouldn't believe some of the place he has gotten himself!
Well, I think that about sums up the update with the kiddos! We will be taking Antiquities pictures later this month and I am hoping that we can get a package for their 3 yr and 2 yr pictures but we will just have to see how expensive that all is! We have been talking about that long lost family picture we were supposed to be taking but Marion really wants to wait until the baby is born for all of us to be together. The last one we took was when Nathan was dedicated in 2005! So, we are overdue on that! Oh well, we'll take what we can get!
