"It's not only children who grow. Parents do too. As much as we watch to see what our children do with their lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours. I can't tell my children to reach for the sun. All I can do is reach for it, myself." ~ Joyce Maynard
It has been far too long since we have seen Aunt Joan, Nicole & Kiersten. Dylan & I made plans to go hang out with the ladies for a day. Kiersten is now crawling around everywhere, pulling herself up on just about anything she can get her hands on, and cruising along everything. Before you know it, she'll be taking her first steps on her own.
Dylan was a little shy at first but was playing & talking up a storm in no time. I'm glad they got to hear all of his crazy language these days. His sentences are coming together quickly. Some times a few words might be misplaced however, he talks A LOT! He must take after his Mommy, lol. He is still obsessed with letters and is quick to tell you all about them. I just can't believe how sponge-like his brain is. It seems like he picks up everything the minute he hears it. After we got home that night, he pointed to a picture in a book and told me it was a "back-hoe." I never heard him use that word before so I asked him how he learned about that "truck" and he told me Aunt Joan told him, lol. Giant Sponge!!!
We had a great day and definitely have to set some more play dates up now that Winter is finally on it's way out and Spring is around the corner!!
