So, I haven't posted any updates in a while because our camera is broken, and it isn't as much fun when I don't have pics to share. I included one of my favorite Andie Art pieces from this month.
Brian is preparing for the Austin City Limits Music Festival this coming weekend. I just returned from a weekend get-a-way. No, I didn't go with anyone. I enjoyed having some quite time, reading a few books, and window shopping.
Andrea started showing interest in the potty again. We did have temporary success back in February, but she changed her mind. She actually did #2 on the 14th of September. Hopefully, when her last two molars finally make their way through, she will really get serious.
Last week Andie & I went to the public library for a puppet show. In one of the skits a lion would randomly roar, and every time it did, Andie would say, "That's funny." I am planning on it being a weekly activity for us. It also allows me to check out books, which is great since I love to read.
Andie's language development is speeding right along. Brian and I are thrilled to get an insight into her imaginary play since we now have a running commentary to understand what she is thinking.
The first week of September, her favorite thing to ask was, "What are you doing here?" She would ask her animals, toys, and us all the time.
She can count from 1-10. Plus, we are working on letter and number recognition. She has B, E, N, Q, R, S, T, U, X, 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8 down.
Another one of her new favorite things to do is to look at the National Geographic Kids web page. She loves to hear the noises the animals make and to watch the videos. The polar bear, brown grizzly bear, and dolphins are the ones she requests the most. The grizzly is trying to catch a fish, but keeps missing them,a and cracks her up.
