Dancing

Lily started her first dance class and Abby moved up to the next ballet/jazz/tap class.  Here are a few pictures from the first day of class. (The picture quality is not very good.)









The dancing continues at home:

2 year old's thoughts (update)

A few months ago we shared about Lily's nap time musing about learning to fly.  It turns out that in her learn to use the potty video, the animated little girl learning to do big girls things like use the potty, tie her shoes and pump on the swing, also flies through the air.  I think the song writers just got lazy looking for a rhyme, but it is quite misleading.  

Playtime

Lily's first drawing

Here is Lily's first recognizable face.

Preschool!

Abby has been back to school for a few weeks, but Lily has now officially become old enough to attend preschool as well.  Today was Lily's first day.  She was a little nervous at first, but warmed right up and had no problems.

Dinosaurs

Abby loves reading about dinosaurs and visiting the dinosaur exhibit at the Museum of Science.  She knows many of their names and what they eat. Her favorite is the triceratops.   We got her a set of plastic dinosaurs, which she loves to play with, but these dinosaurs do not say "roar".   This is an example of what they say:

- Protoceratops, what's wrong?
- I lost my sister.
- Oh, no! We'll help you. My name is Sarah and this is GusGus.  We'll make a plan and search the woods. 

Sharing a Bed

Now that Lily is out of a crib, Abby and Lily share a big bed when we go visit Grandma and Grampa.



It is still too exciting for Lily to go to sleep in this arrangement. So we have to put her to sleep in our bed and transfer her once she is asleep.
