The Girls Lately

06.00

I feel like I haven't blogged about the girls in a while, so this post is dedicated to the two little girls that hold my heart.

G is just getting so big lately! She has really proven to me that she is growing up and maturing. She's helping out around the house more and she's learning so much! She is also strong willed and determined, and I really do love that about her! For the past several weeks, she has slept on top of her covers so she doesn't have to make her bed. It makes perfect sense, and i'm not going to argue with that reasoning- I wish I would've thought of that when I was younger!

She has also been enjoying the ipad and it's tv shows and learning apps. She asks to play every night, and we try to limit her to just the weekends, but she snags either the ipad or the phone any chance she has! The ipad had died one day, and we were charging it in the office. the next thing we knew, G wasn't in the playroom or in her bedroom- she was on the ipad with it plugged in.

This is her last Friday night watching t.v. She and MC have enjoyed moving the couch cushions and stacking them on top of themselves. When she came home from school, I asked her to change clothes, and she came back out in a Cinderella shirt and faux fur vest. (Her style choice made me laugh, b/c I've been trying to get her to wear that vest all winter!)
I was sitting on the couch beside her one evening, and she asked me to hold her feet. I smiled, because I use to ask my mom the same thing- it was just comforting to me (plus it kept my feet warm)! And, I love that G inherently asked the same thing.

Last Tuesday, I told G that she would have to be helpful that evening because I wasn't feeling well. She asked if she would get to cook dinner, and I told her no, that I would cook. She replied, "I wanted to make candy soup!"

MC is such a little ham. She seriously has the best personality. It's been really hard getting on to her, and she really keeps us on our toes because she is so determined. She climbs like no other child i've seen, and i'm surprised we haven't found her on top of the refrigerator! She's up the stairs if the gate isn't up, and she's on the kitchen counters and the kitchen table if it gets her what she wants (i.e.: food) She loves to eat, and if we're in the kitchen preparing, she's at our feet saying, "eat, eat" and then in the cabinet getting out her cup and plate.

She loves to have  her picture made and will say "eeeee" for the camera. She often takes my phone and pretends to take pictures of herself.
She's very helpful. She'll throw things in the garbage, take her shoes to her room, or dirty clothes to the laundry room. She even likes to help dust.

Lately, she has enjoyed coloring, and spends just as much time as G does drawing at the bar, kitchen table, or in their play room.

She has started to tell us 'pee pee' and 'poo poo' and we've sat her on the potty a few times. At first, she was afraid, but now she'll ask to go, and try to take down her pants and take off her diaper. She actually did pee pee on the potty before bathtime last Thursday (3/7) but I don't think she really meant to, and she didn't notice that she did anything. I wasn't planning on potty training her until after the baby came this summer, but we'll let her enjoy sitting as long as she wants.
She loves bows and shoes. If i'm looking on facebook and she sees those pictures she'll say, "shoe" "bow". It cracks me up.

The girls are starting to get along better and play together. Saturday morning, I think they played together in MCs bedroom for around an hour and I heard no fighting or arguing!

MC also loves babies and will carry one around with  her when she thinks about it. I know she'll be a good big sister.

Here are the girls last Friday morning before school. I'm glad I managed to get this picture at home, because MC apparently cried the entire time. She hates new situations, and getting out of her comfort zone, so i'm not surprised at all that she cried during pictures.
We had a family movie night last Friday and after a failed attempt of getting a movie at Redbox, and then renting one on the ipad, which we later figured out won't transfer over to a computer, so the three of us sat around the ipad watching "Wreck It Ralph" Friday night.
I really thought "Wreck It Ralph" was not going to be an age appropriate movie for G, but I really loved it! It's one that we will likely have to add to our movie collection!

I love these girls so much and I love seeing them grow and change! They are such blessings to my life!
