Other updates are the girls have been fighting over mommy's iPhone and both girls have become very proficient on the phone (this has been going on for a while). Because we'll be going on a trip soon I decided that an iTouch would be much more useful than any other hand device for them to keep occupied with and the fact that I always have to have two of the same thing for them to play with at the same time. Yes, people outside of tech and casual bystanders cannot believe I let them use my iPhone. Kids today are much more advanced....yes I sound old...hahahhhaha! I also want to set up a child friendly computer for them to use, but we'll see.
They both love to draw and they are pretty good at it. Biased or not they both can draw faces (expressions), bunnies, whales, Mickey mouse, etc and it amazes me. Der and I both enjoy drawing and doing art, so it gives me great pleasure that our kids are following in our footsteps. Besides the art thing they both love music as well which makes us overjoyed. Sophie is a dancer and Hannah is a singer.
They are communicating more and more and we have so much fun watching them at this stage of development. At 34 months we find that this is the "testing the limits" stage and I find I must tap into my secondary set of patience. From teaching potty training (yes we're still trying!!!), to learning to control anger (parents included), to demanding requests, and learning how to communicate better, I know that this is probably the easier stage in life and I'm not looking forward to the teen years!!! It scares me that I see the kids exhibit our personalities, but it's also pretty funny too :D
The first weekend the girls had so much fun at the water park that was less than 1 ft of water near the play structure.
The next weekend they had more fun with mommy and daddy in the water with them and more friends like the Clarkson's, Ko's, and Yang's joining us. Here they munch on some Pirate Booty and Caprisun drinks.
