another post from Sunshine (Super Duper)

London is reaching, grabbing, and pulling at things. She has been very aware of her hands. She has now discovered her feet. She slumps down in her high chair so she can see her feet. She watches people as they enter and exit a room. She makes sure she is included in conversations, by joining in with coos, squeals, and sounds.

Post from Sunshine

What a helper! I was cleaning the air return in the upstairs hallway tonight and made a big mess of dust and grime on the carpet. Willow of course asked me what I was doing. I told her and then said I would need to vacuum the mess later. I then got busy with London. While I was with London I heard this banging up the stairs and in the hallway. I looked out and Willow had gone downstairs and brought up her little toy vaccum to "clean up" the mess. She said, "I'll get it for you, Mommy." She "vacuumed" my mess and then said, "Excuse me Mommy (I was standing in London's doorway). "I need to clean London's room." So she "vacuumed" it too. I sure hope this willingness to help around the house continues when she's a teenager.

A few Willow stories

It's amazing how quick children grow and learn. Willow doesn't miss a thing!

Story 1: The other day Sunshine and Willow where driving home from preschool. (Willow goes to the preschool where Sunshine teaches.) Anyway, Willow says, "I want to go there." It takes Sunshine a second or two to figure out Willow is talking about Steak and Shake. Sunshine asks, "What are we going to get there?" Willow says, "A shake milk." I think we have been there once with her, but she didn't forget we got a "shake milk."

Story 2: Willow and I were driving home from Gigi and Poppy's house yesterday. I was drinking coffee and Willow wanted some. It finally got cool enough for her to drink, so I handed her the cup. She took a sip and said, "Yuummm! Good!" After a few sips I asked for my coffee back. Willow said, "Nope, it's my coffee now!" WHAT A SASSY LITTLE GIRL!

All London (our child, not the city)

I thought I would put some pictures of London on the blog!
She is so cute!!!!! Sucking on her fingers is how she goes to sleep.

Self Potraits

Willow has become somewhat of a pro at using the digital camera. Here she has taken some pictures of herself!
