Adrianna and Bree are the sweetest of sisters. For the most part, they get along wonderfully. Bree loves to play with “Na-Na”. Adrianna’s confidence in her reading skills has grown by leaps and bounds this year. She loves to read to Bree. And I love to watch their sisterly bond grow every day. These girls […]

Alter Egos
Just got back from the grocery store, accompanied by Beggy Beggarton and Screamy McScreamsalot on this cold and blustery day. Can I be done for the day now? At least one of them will be taking a nap soon. For now, I have them watching a Tinkerbell movie while I recuperate.
Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star
We still give Bree a bottle and rock together in our gliding chair at bedtime. I know, she is probably a little old for a bottle. But it is a nice routine that we both enjoy. What can I say; she is still my baby. After she finishes her milk, we have a new addition […]
Superbowl
Usually when I watch a show on tv, I mute or fast-forward the commercials. But when I watch the Super Bowl, I mute or fast-forward the game and watch the commercials. We actually did watch the last part of the game, with the sound on. Bree was getting into it too. She kept saying, “Oh, […]
Dinner Time Silliness
The girls had a lot of fun at dinner tonight, roaring like dinosaurs and singing the stegosaurus song. Bree was really full of energy and smiles tonight. I love my silly, sweet, beautiful girls!
Sorting Shapes – Yay!
While Adrianna was doing some of her school work, I was sitting on the floor with Bree, helping her put the shapes in the shape sorter. It took some time (and frustration) on Bree’s part to figure it out at first. When she started to do it on her own, I was cheering her on […]
Butterfly Pavilion & Colorado Symphony
This week was a busy week for us with two homeschool field trips. Butterfly Pavilion The first trip was with our Options group to the Butterfly Pavilion on Tuesday. This trip started with a 45 minute “class” about the different types of invertebrates, which included some live invertebrates that the kids were able to observe […]
May I Suggest Middle Earth?
I am uploading a video of Bree to Youtube and I love one of their suggested tags – “Bree (Middle Earth)”. (Part of the reason Greg chose the name “Bree”, along with that particular spelling, is because it is from LOTR. He liked that the name was “literary”. Bree is the town that the hobbits […]

Height: 36 inches – 91st percentile Weight: 29.8 pounds – 80th percentile Head Circumference: 19.5 inches – 91st percentile So she continues to be a tall girl. Her weight has gone up from the 50th percentile to 80th since her last checkup. I guess she’s getting enough […]
Duet
I am so glad we bought our keyboard. Not only do I get enjoyment out of it but so do both of the girls. Together. I love watching them play “duets” together. Adrianna has been attending Children’s Music Academy once every week. It is a class for 4-6 year olds and they teach music in […]
