Claire
As much as I want her to start talking in real sentences, I really don't want her to grow up because she is very cute most days. She has tantrums when things don't work like she wants them to, but most the time she is learning and playing really well. We've been practicing matching colors together and organizing things like her big Legos, and she is so smart! There are a few times she picks on her sister because she is smaller and doesn't want to share what she is playing with and she tries to hide that she is being mean. I know better, of course. Her favorite foods are our homemade pizzas, chicken nuggets, bacon, and graham crackers, so I've been trying to think of ways to get a better diet for her.
Shay
Still taking at least two naps a day and is a happy adventurous girl the rest of the day with the toys, books, dirty laundry, or any food that has fallen on the floor. She was sick a couple days during the last of the week and woke up in puke 3 mornings in a row, but was fine during the day. Then during the weekend she had diarrhea and a running nose and was extra tired and cuddly. We spend a good half an hour cuddling after one of her naps on Saturday before daddy and Claire got home from the aquarium.
Chris
We went out on a date with Chris's friend and new girlfriend on Saturday for dinner, desert, and a game night. Spending time with friends is pretty important for us right now, since we don't have much time left around this area. We've found it in our budget to go out for a fun night and had a lot of fun playing Codenames and teaching our friends how to play. I miss having game nights and a good couple as friends to have game nights with since its a fun home activity for a date. Then of course was the aquarium with Claire, but there is a whole section for that on its own.
Aquarium
We are calling this Chris and Claire's first daddy-daughter date because they went all alone to meet up with her aunt and uncle and see the fishes. Claire was very excited because she got to wear her backpack with the leash and we kept asking her if she wanted to go see fishys and she would say "ya!" I heard that she got pretty crazy running around after enjoying the sharks and touching areas but it was better than the last time we went and she gave up and laid down on the floor. It was also night for Chris to spend time with his brother to celebrate his birthday, again, while we are still in this area and can.
