Shay
That's right, Shay is the star of the show this week because she is now 11 months old! I was expecting her to be walking by now since she learned how to crawl so early, but she seems fine blazing the trail on all fours. She seems to care less about learning to balance and take steps since she is so fast crawling, but I know she will get there when she wants. She does kneel quite often as she is playing with things or reaching up for snacks, of which her favorite right now is graham crackers. We are trying to find more variety of food she can eat with her 6 teeth, but she started being picky in the last month. She is still growing and is happy so I think we are alright and we are more in love with her every day which her happy smiles and giggles.
Claire
I'm glad we broke that fork stealing habit, but she is still fascinated with "helping" in the kitchen when I'm putting away dishes and cooking. She found a new place to store her blocks in the kitchen, but only the 2x2 blocks because the others are different. At least she can sort...She still loves her sleep and will sleep in unless Shay ruins it by being too loud. There are times when they sleep in a lot, but that only seems to be the days that I have work and dad is in charge! She is getting really good at her tantrums after half a year of being 2, but seems to get over them pretty quickly. She is pretty good at trying new foods but has her favorites like sandwiches, chicken nuggets, and milk. The best part about her is when she is happy to see us and yells "mommy" and comes to hug me when I get home. She doesn't seem anxious to be apart, but is very happy to see her mom or dad when pick her up from the gym.
Working
This applies to both Chris and myself because we are getting into a system of working at watching the kids when we don't work so they other can. I sub on days he is off and it is working out pretty good for us so we can have a good cushion of money when we move to California. As much as we wish we would have known to apply for scholarships before being accepted, we will have to make it through the first two semesters without. We are applying for a Navy HPSP scholarship that we might get and have help starting in December, if not we plan on doing it on our own and being good about paying back the debt. I just hope I can continue to work some how like subbing or at a daycare where I can bring the girls with me.
