Random list of things that have been going on with the kids:
- Nicholas' reading is amazing! I think he's made a HUGE leap in the last week. Then again, maybe it is just because I have hardly heard him read in months. But he has gone from reading individual words to reading whole sentences at full speed. He sits down and reads a book out loud and it actually sounds like a book! And that includes proper intonation for periods and quotation marks! The first few books he read to me like this were ones I had previously read to him and so I figured he had just memorized my intonations but this weekend he read me two full Henry and Mudge books and he had never even heard of the characters before this!
- Elizabeth is crawling like a speed demon and pulling up on everything. She has even started a little bit of cruising, but she doesn't get very far that way yet.
- Nicholas and I decorated one of Elizabeth's walls with the animal removable sticker things she got for Christmas. He is SO good when he has a project he is into. And SO not good when he is bored or hungry. (Church this morning was a complete disaster.)
- Elizabeth has been snuggly at night the last couple nights. The last time she snuggled into me like that was when she was a few weeks old. I absolutely LOVE it.
- Nicholas went to his first game at Fenway last night. Joe was given tickets by a friend who won them and couldn't use them, the Orioles were in town, and we couldn't find a sitter. There will be pictures once we get around to uploading them.
