Talia and Kayli went to a birthday party at Justice on Sunday. It was a “Rock Star” theme party and they did their hair, make-up and nails and got the headsets and pink fingerless gloves. They had a great time.
We have a roller in the house
Falyn rolled all the way across the living room and under her jumperoo today. She is now the expert roller and can roll pretty much anywhere she wants to go. She has been getting up on her hands and knees know too and has done a sort of army type crawl to move forward a few times. I’m afraid she is going to be crawling in the next month or so. Way too early in my opinion. I tell her she is too young to be trying to crawl, but she doesn’t listen.
Happy Sixth Birthday Aidan!
It’s hard to believe he is now 6 years old. He is such a sweetie-pie. (Except when fighting with the twins.) He is very analytic – his favorite toys are his bionicals. He likes to read. His favorite books are Captain Underpants. His favorite tv show is Spongebob Squarepants. His favorite thing to do outside is ride his bike. His favorite color is still blue.
