Starting September

Claire

Our girl is doing so much more talking than I'm used to and it is really fun to be understanding what she wants. Then there are some other things that we have to listen to her over and over again with to try and understand what she is meaning and still she has to show us. Luckily, I understand a lot because she wants me to acknowledge that I understand what she is showing me before moving onto the next interesting thing. We enjoyed great weather early this week but it has started to heat up this weekend and on Friday, she wanted to wear a coat for some strange reason and Shay followed in her footsteps. It was funny seeing her in my huge hoodie and makes me laugh the games she comes up with for herself and Shay. She has her collection of dogs that she doesn't like to share, but with most things I have her play with her sister instead of letting them fight by telling her  to show Shay how to do things.

Shay

Like I mentions, she loves to do everything her sister does and one was climbing in their new lion toy box to hide, even though it started as Claire hiding from Shay. Shay likes taking the stuff Claire usually hides in there out and then when Claire finds out she will put it all back in. Playing together doesn't always turn out good because a lot of the times they have differing opinions on what should be happening and we have to stop their fighting by taking away the box or toys they are fighting over. When we are outside they have a lot of fun fight over those toys too but a lot of times they go around the corner or in the dirt areas to play together. I'm glad they have each other even though they seem to not like it at least half the time!

Crafting

I did another thing! I was bored and kept thinking how fun it would be for the girls to have a playhouse to play with and I had a bunch of extra fabric from when I used to work in a fabric store and could never sell. So I measured, cut, and sewed this really simple design for an over the kitchen table hut and cut the door out as a finishing touch. Claire was really excited when I put it up and showed her what it was for and we take it down at night so our robo vacuum doesn't catch the edges. She likes when we re put it up in the morning and let her have hiding parties with her dogs and tigers. I wish there were cushions because sometimes she wants us to come in there with her and the floor isn't exactly comfortable.
