The girls

I started this typed this 2 days ago and never posted it. Amazing how much can change in 2 days! HA!
I feel like after all my vacation posts that I should devote a little time to the two lovely ladies in my life!

Presley has been doing so good. I will say the last 4 months she has been the best she has ever been. For the most part she is good with Piper, she eats good, she even goes to bed good (she is usually always asleep by 8:30!) She can be SO polite and helpful, it's almost weird sometimes! HA!
She is still great in school and they love her. We had our first 'incident report' from preschool today and it wasn't even anything good! LOL! She has a scratch near her right eye but she didn't know how she got it or if someone else did it to her.  Of course, in the last 3 nights we have had 3 fits. Nothing like they were before but your typical 'stop staring at me!' comments, then we laugh at her and then she cries b/c we laughed at her and we 'aren't nice'.....blah, blah. The eye rolling and snotty attitude has made more of an appearance in the last 3 days (I might blame Piper the Elf!)

Piper in the last 2 weeks has changed. Before Thanksgiving she got a cold, she stopped eating (fruit is really the only food she'll eat these days), she hates her baths (it is the weirdest and saddest thing! She shakes and screams the minute her feet are in, you can't get her to sit down, it's like she is in pain!) She is now teething 3-5 different teeth, she sleeps good once you get her to bed! She now has her appetite back! Guess she is finally over her cold and teething and back to her normal self! Still hates the bath though.
She still doesn't really say 'words', but that is similar to the way Presley was too. She loves reading books, the same ones over and over again! And this girl is clumsy! She tries to do more than she can really do like lifting heavy things or running faster than she can, she has bumped her head more times in the last 6 months than Presley probably has her whole life!  I started thinking about how much we baby her. I'm just not as excited to get to the next milestone with her. She is still rear facing in her car seat, we are still giving her a nighttime bottle -don't judge- (of milk), during the day she drinks out of a sippy cup, we just haven't really even tried to get rid of it at bedtime! She is going to grow up,whether we like it or not....now we just need to accept that! HA!
