Update on our life

This summer went by way too fast, I can't even believe Halloween is right around the corner!  I finally got around to downloading pictures from our camera and thought I would update on the girls and what we have been up to these past few months!

Morgan Jo:  Morgan started preschool in September, she goes on Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9-1130, the first 3 times I dropped her off she cried, she didn't want me to leave, but after that she now runs into the room and can't wait to go back!  She is very observant, asks ALOT of questions and remembers almost anything (including things we have done years ago)  She gets bored easily so I am always trying to think of things that she can do to keep her busy.  Here are some of her favorite things currently:

Age: 4 years and 9 months (where did the time go). 

Favorite Food:  Peanut butter and Strawberry Jam sandwiches, Celery, Carrots, plums, apples, oranges, Swiss cheese, Doritos, and any kind of chocolate

Dislikes:  Scrambled Eggs, Asparagus, and onions

Favorite T.V. Show:  Curious George, Strawberry Shortcake (which is her Halloween costume this year), and Bob the Builder

Favorite activity:  Painting, she loves painting.

Favorite Color:  Purple, she wants to wear purple EVERYDAY

Favorite toy:  She loves to play in the sandbox, she loves riding her bikes, and really likes playing with puzzles

Favorite character:  Hello Kitty and Strawberry Shortcake

What she wants to be when she grows up:  Recently she told me that she wants to be a Fireman

Fun Fact:  She has lost 2 bottom teeth!  The dentist is not concerned since she is on the younger side because she is getting her adult teeth in right after.

Cameryn Paige:  Cameryn is our "emotional" child, if you tell her No or Stop it is usually followed by a meltdown of tears!  She is content playing on her own, although from time to time really gets into playing with her sisters.  She is a mama's girl!  She still is talking too much, but she does say Mama, Daha (for daddy), Da (dog), IIII (for Hi, and waves at the same time), ohhh (for uh-o), she signs Please, More, All Done, Drink, Banana and Help.  She knows the noises for Cat, Dog, Monkey, Lion, Elephant, Giraffe, Duck, Bird, and Train.  It gets better every day!

Age:  2 years and 3 months

Favorite Food:  Bananas, Cheese, Grapes, Pineapple, Oranges, Ketchup, Chicken Nuggets, and fries

Dislikes:  Casseroles

Favorite T.V. Show:  She doesn't care for t.v., ususally when the girls are having t.v. time she is playing with a toy.

Favorite thing:  She LOVES shoes, she is always playing and putting on different shoes

Favorite toy:  anything that stacks, clicks, (like Lego's) and anything she can push

Fun Fact:  She is wearing 24 months-2t and has a size 7 shoe.


Jaidyn Elliott:  Oh Jaidyn, she is a goofy girl.  She is always trying to do things to make us laugh.  She is very bright and usually only have to show her something once for her to remember.  She is mostly obedient, however is starting to copy Morgan in someways when she doesn't want to do something (like cross her arms in front of her and pout).  She is talking more than Cameryn, she says Mama, Dada, Da (dog), Hi, Nite Nite, Waaa (water), brook (for broken), Ahhh (when you explain something to her she says Ahhhh), My (for mine), she signs  Please, More, All Done, Drink, Banana, and Help.  She knows the sounds to Cat, Dog, Monkey, Lion, Elephant, Giraffe, Duck, Bird and Train.  She is for sure a daddy's girl!

Age:  2 years and 3 months

Favorite Food:  Spaghetti, Scrambled eggs, canned peaches, dry cereal, chicken nuggets, ham, crackers, and cheese puffs

Dislikes:  Casseroles, and its not that she doesn't "like" fruit, but she prefers carbs over fruit (which is funny because she is our "tiniest" kid we have had)

Favorite T.V. Show:  Elmo's World and Curious George

Favorite Thing:  Her Elmo stuffed animal and blankets

Favorite Toy:  She doesn't really have a favorite, she plays with everything

Fun Fact:  She can still fit in 12 month sizes (depending on the article of clothing) and has a size 6 shoe.

Jaidyn was making a Lion noise

 

 

Lately the twins have been fighting their nap, so I am thinking that might be going away soon, but I am going to keep on trying as it is nice to get some one on one time with Morgan while they nap!  I am really looking forward to this Christmas and can't wait to see how they do with the tree (we didn't get one last year) and the presents.  Also, this winter my two goals for Cameryn and Jaidyn are to start them in a toddler bed and start potty training (it would be wonderful to not have to buy anymore diapers!)  My two goals with Morgan is for her to fully write her name (right now she can write M and O) and to know the whole alphabet by site.  I am going to have to get creative as we will be stuck in the house for most of the day when winter hits!
