- They know all their colors.
- They saw their first live show at Busch Gardens. It was a Sesame Street holiday show and they loved it!
- They both received their first spankings in December. Those spankings were not their last.
- They added loads of words to their repertoire that include but are not limited to: squirrel, bubbles, Ernie, Buzz, Co-Co, fork, spoon, yucky, moon, yellow, pink, orange, please, etc.
- We took them on their first mini-vacation with our friends Stephen and Brooke to Massanutten. It was so much fun!
- Reese became obsessed with squirrels and looks for them everywhere, still. It's awesome.
- Both kids love to stick their fingers in their noses and yell, "Yuck!" We all think it is funny; you may not.
- The kids took their first trip to the River House for Thanksgiving which is a big deal for us!
- We left the singular world of Sesame Street and had a brief obsession with Blues Clues. We entered the world of Finding Nemo and Toy Story.
- Hayden gets shockingly emotional during various scenes of these movies. When Nemo is getting fish-napped, he panics. We keep telling him that Nemo has to "get taken" in order for the title to come into fruition. He still panics. Every. Single. Time. In Toy Story 2, Woody can't find his hat in the beginning, and it stresses Hayden out. He claps when they clap; he yells when they fall; he chants "Shark Bait Brew-ha-ha" to the best of his ability. It's awesome.
- Reese finally started getting little girl toys instead of gender neutral. She got a tea set and some bracelets for Christmas from family members, and she loves them! It's really cute.
Here are a couple of my favorite pictures from my blogging hiatus.
What has been your favorite age for you children?
