Documenting The Kids

[ sentiment strip available at Designer Digitals ]

Simon @ 7 years

- worked super hard for over three weeks to have three days "in green" for a reward trip to Target to get some legos (staying in green means following directions, no pushing, no arguing about who is first in line, accepting, etc)

- playing with the neighbor kids outside almost everyday after school: riding bikes, playing chase

- doing single number addition worksheets super-fast (and correctly)

- ate green peppers & broccoli

- working on accepting not being first in line after recess everyday + found a solution by holding hands (and sharing first) with the little girl you compete with the most
- lost your first tooth (you pulled it out all on your own)

Anna @ 3 months

- smiling a ton, especially when Simon comes into view

- liking very much to be held rather than in any other spot
- rolled over from stomach to back
- working on getting into a routine
- moved from the bassinet next to our bed to the crib in your own room
- had your first adventure to the 92 degree swimming pool (you loved it)
- started hanging out with a very special babysitter twice a week
