In other news... Karina is going to pop her first tooth any day here, she has been pretty good. I need to get her back into the routine of sleeping through the night. She is sitting up on her own, I guess she need a little help starting off but once she is sitting up she will stay that way. Karina hates being on her stomach... she will lay on her stomach for a while and then start screaming about 5 minuets after. We are working on trying to get her to stay on her stomach longer and get her to try and scoot. She started eating cereal and loves it. I need to get a video of her eating, I can't get her food to her mouth fast enough... she defiantly has her mommies love for food, but hopefully she doesn't get my sweet tooth. She is starting to stretch and thin out a little. I can't believe she is almost six months old. it's crazy it seems like just yesterday I was bringing her home from the hospital.
Brooke is also growing up fast. I can not believe I have a two year old. She is my big helper... just ask her :) When I ask her to pick up her toys and when she finally does she tells me... thank you big helper. I love it, it always makes me smile. She has been talking in complete sentences for a while now and it is getting easier and easier to understand her. She loves to pick on her little sister, but also loves to "help" her. The other day I found her with Karina on the floor in front of her with Karina's pants and diaper off with the wipes next to her, when I asked her what she was doing she said "I change Kawia's diaper". It's hard not to laugh. She was giving Karina "coffee" and I hear her say.... "Kawia don't dump it, Brookie hold it for you". I need to record her one of these times. Wish I had something where I could record a day of these girls playing. It would be fun to watch and listen to them have "conversations" together. She loves to copy everything she hears. She has been potty training for a while now and has been able to keep her diaper dry a couple times all day. She loves to wear her big girl undies over her diaper. She gets to wear them whenever she goes on the potty. She loves to go and asks to sit on it every five minuets... and that is no joke. Well not every day but most days and on some days she doesn't like to go at all. Brooke's hair is finally long enough to put all of it into a pony. I love it... no more mullet!! :)
Trevor got switched to night shift... well I guess its not really night shift because he works from 4:00pm until
2:30am Tuesday through Friday. We are still getting used to this schedule. Trevor likes this schedule better so I am guessing he will want to stay on it. Trevor's parents are coming down here this weekend and it will be nice to have some company and we can't wait for them to get here.
We are living in a condo with a nice big fenced in back yard. I can't wait until the weather gets a little warmer so we can spend our days outside. I love the fact that it is fenced in... I can let Brooke play outside and not have to worry about her going out into the road. I can finally have my little garden also.
I will add a few pictures because I have blogged a few times with out pictures and it makes a post more interesting when there are pictures.
Enjoying a warm day.
She loves to "drive".
Brooke thought she needed a clip her hair like her big sister.
My baby girl getting so big.
This is just moments before Brooke dumped her out.
