I totally skipped February

Well - I said at the beginning of this blog there was a good chance I would not keep up. And it's happened. I've been meaning to write - I really have. Time has just sped past me and I've not kept up. So...let's catch up.  

Naomi is now 8 months. She is trying so hard to crawl. She has perfected backwards locomotion which only manages to completely frustrate her since she moves further away from the items she wants as opposed to closer to them.  It's rather cute honestly.  She's also standing frequently - with support of course. And likes to "walk" while you hold her hands. I tell you, this girl wants to move.  She just hasn't figured out the coordination to get herself going.  But man  - doesn't she look cute trying?

Audrey is loving all things girly. My "only wants to wear shorts and pants" 3 year old has turned into my "only wants to wear skirts and dresses" 4 year old.  Can't tell you the excitement I have at the prospect of cute sundresses on her this summer!!  She also loves her dance class - and can now show you position 1 and 2 as well as an arabesque.  I can't wait for her dance recital in May.  

Audrey has also been dealing with wanting mommy a lot lately.  She's cried at school for me several times.  We've done special mommy/Audrey days and spent good time together lately. We've spoken to her teacher and it seems many other 4 year olds have been going through this.  Makes me feel better that it's somewhat developmental.  I've also given her one of my necklaces to wear to school to help her not miss me too much. That and a new Hello Kitty doll has been helping.  

The girls had Dr. Seuss dress-up this last week in honor of the good doctor's birthday.  I made (yes, actually attempted a craft - don't fall over in shock!) shirts for them to wear. They looked adorable.  

More to come soon - I promise.  I won't let March get by me the way February did.  Watch for fun landscaping, warm weather and the color green in the coming weeks!
