swimming

She still has a sensitive heart when something is wrong or she is upset. She listens well and loves doing chores.  She moves a lot in her sleep. It it always a guess of where she will be in bed when I wake her up.  I love the confidence she has in herself, sometimes she needs to more humble. When disciplined she feels remorse and can move on. I am so proud of my baby girl and how much she is growing. Although it seems she always has growth spurts between season at the end of the school year.

Simon Update

It has been a very long time since I have had the time to post something.
I am going to do a quick update on Simon.....
Simon loves.....

StarWars ABC- I have read this book to him almost every night for about two months

Super Hero Squad- the cartoon or the book

Playing pretend with Janna----I hear the word "pretend" more than I can stand some days. They pretended to be hamsters, naked mole rats, turtles, etc.....

Playing on the I-pad.

Star Wars Angry  birds

Pez...he doesn't like chocolate usually

Monkey

small soft stuffed animals...to crowd  in bed with him

elephants....he still like them too

Audrey....he is so sad when she is not at school with him

Ms.Nicki.....his teacher, she recently doesn't like to come home with me

strawberry milk

"S" shaped pancakes

Orange juice

fruity flavored frozen yogurt....lime, mango, pineapple. etc..

He has been asking a lot of questions....why does______?
why the moon go away?
How big is a dinosaur?
Why does the tongue taste?

He can write his first and last name.

He can count to 10 in Spanish.

He can count to 100 but gets stuck on the 10s like Janna did, and usually skips thirties.

He is great at riding his bike and can go farther than Janna most days.

I love how is growing up....he has been at least for now carrying his bags for me, only giving me one hug and kiss instead of 100, helping out more,  throwing less tantrums or getting over them faster. I love my Simon!
