A Week of Appointments

 Claire

Almost every day after picking her up from school we drive by the park and they want to go and play so we did that a few times. I was cold but they made some friends and got some energy out before we had to go home. They went to the dentist before school this Wednesday and were complimented on how well they listened when the nurses were cleaning and brushing their teeth. They both liked getting new toothbrushes, toothpaste, and floss after being good girls. Today was the primary program and I had a perfect front-row view of Claire's singing which mostly involves her copying the director and waving her arms. I wonder if she thinks that's a good calling because I did it in Farmington right before we moved and she remembers me doing it. I hope music is important to them and they will join me in singing in the choir in the future.

Shay

She came to my appointments this week and showed how well-behaved she is by listening so well and sitting quietly. I love that she doesn't try to make Claire jealous that she goes places with me and always thinks about getting something for her sister when we go shopping. We had an extra long baby appointment and she made a tower for Rapunzel and then when she knocked that over on accident we built a huge castle because she gets to go live at home at the end of the movie. This week we started working on her ability to say her name because she usually pronounces it 'Tay' so we were teaching her the 'sh' sound because during the primary program, she has to introduce herself. It was very separate when she said 'Sh-ay', but I'm sure she will get better as we continue to work on it. I think it was pretty cute and I had some other people notice how adorable my children are!
