It's been a while....

I know I haven’t written in a while, but there has been a lot going on and mommy had been tired.

 

Austin-

You like day care a lot.  You do not want to wake up in the morning but once you get up and get going you are fine.  The first day and week after that were really hard, but now you are used to it and you enjoy playing with your friends.  You take naps and play well with others.  In 2 ½ weeks you have only got in trouble once for being mean to another kid.  You had trouble remembering to use the potty at some point during each day, but you seem to have that under control… at least at day care.  You love to watch Thomas the Train and Big Bird.  You like Nick Jr(Noggin) at Maw Maw’s house.  You love to play outside and run everywhere.  You have so much energy and you get excited about everything.  You are so much fun but to be around, but it is very tiring as well.  You say “How are you doing this morning”  and “I am so excited to see you.  I want to go home with you” 

 

We went to the Lyon’s family farms on Sunday with Titipika, Maw Maw, Dorothy and all the kids.  You loved it so much.  You went down all the slides and did really well not running away.  The first 2 times you got on the cow train you got out of it while it was going.  Mommy rode on it with you then you went on it again by yourself.  You had your half smile that reminds me of Pop so I knew you liked it. You wanted all the small pumpkins and when mommy said she wanted one that wasn’t “flat” you kept saying you found one that wasn’t “fat”

 

You love matchbox cars.  You love your pajamas.  You are mean to your sister but you miss her when she is not there.  She had to stay with Maw Maw when she was sick and you told me in the car “Give me my sister back!!”  You eat better at day care than you do at home.  You are nicer at daycare.  The teachers say they fight over you because you are sweet and helpful.

 

 

Megan-

You act way older than you are.  At day care they say you are 2 going on 20 and everyone is convinced that you were on this earth before… I agree.  When you wake up in the morning you smile and say “I love you mommy”  You even smile if I tickle you to wake you up.  You are so different from you brother and so different from me.  Yester day when I tried to put your shoes on you cried because you could not wear your boots.  I let you wear them today and you kept saying “I’m wearing my boots”  you also bring me your hair stuff so I can fix your hair.  You are  girly girl and I think I am going to need help so I can let you be that way.  I like that you are not a wuss though.  You are not afraid of stuff and you like to get dirty.  I think you are going to be a lot like Amy K… sporty but girly at the same time… I like that!  You still get “sad” at people, but not as much as you used to.  You cry at day care a little, but you are fine as soon as I leave.  Everyone says you are a pleasure to work with and everyone loves you.  You ran out of the building and then I had to chase Austin inside the building. 

 

You loved the farm too.  You ran around and acted like the big kids.  You loved going up the big slide and playing in the corn.  You were better in the train than Austin was.  You were trying to pick all the pumpkins up and wanted to take all of them home. 

You are starting to stick up for your self with Austin.  You are becoming even more independent but you still like your hugs.  You love to play with everything Austin is playing with.  You can count but do not know your colors.  You love to sing and you make up songs.  You get mad at the smaller kids when they will not talk back to you at daycare.  You are the prettiest little girl in the world!!

 

 

Both---

I love you guys so much.  I am so glad you are in daycare and around other kids your age.  You test my patience every day but also amaze me by how much I can love two little people.  You love your maw maw and pawpaw and are so happy every time you see them.  They care about you very much.
