(We are having trouble with getting pictures from the camera to the blog, but I have let that be an excuse for not blogging for to long. So, i will just have to blog non-picture stuff for now...)
Adelle is now 18 months old. Here are a few things about her right now:
-She loves nursery. Even though she just came 'of age' she has been going for awhile. Her leaders can't tell me enough about how great she is.
-Still she is such a girl!! She loves dolls, purses, necklaces, bracelets, kitchen toys, dressing up, and pink!
-Her favorite animal is horse. 'nough said.
-She is somewhat potty training herself. This has not been an idea that I planted. She likes to sit on the potty, and usually does her business there too if given the opportunity. For now we are still in diapers, I don't think she is totally ready for true potty training, however I am not about to squash her interest. If she wants to go on the potty, fine by me.
-She is really starting to talk. Every day or two I hear a new word. In addition, she talks clearly. Even strangers can tell what she is saying. So cute.
-She loves books! Adelle would be content to sit and look at books for hours and hours. This is an interest that I wholeheartedly support.
-Adelle is out of the crib. I knew she was ready when we moved to utah, but I wanted to hold on to what we could to create some consistency for her. And to find another toddler bed. But then I had the idea to just take the side of the crib off, creating a day-bed. We did that a couple of weeks ago and it has worked like a charm. She loves her bed. She transitioned out of the crib just as well as Caleb did. Ahhh, what great kids I have.
Dear Blog
Dear Blog,
We have had a lot going on. Sorry I havn't been around since Thanksgiving(!?!). It must be the unusual winter weather that has been keeping me away. You see we havn't had any snow to speak of yet. And we are well into February. No snow for Devin's mid-December graduation. No snow for Christmas in Utah. No snow for New Years in Idaho. No January snow. And you guessed it, no February snow yet either. What is with that?
At least we didn't have snow for when we moved down to Utah. Loading and unloading the 16-foot moving truck was tricky enough without the snow. Yes, you read that right. WE MOVED TO UTAH. Right in the midst of moving we also sold our home of 4 1/2 years. Whew.
We have settled into our sweet find of an apartment here in Cottonwood Heights. The kids actually have space to play in their room if they want to. I don't have to haul my laundry through the kitchen (why do apartments put the washer and dryer in the kitchen anyway?) We have family close by. And we are also walking distance from the library. Caleb and Adelle already love story time at the library.
Devin is working hard at finding a job. It pretty much takes up all of his time;)
That is what we have been up to. Doesn't sound like much, but it has kept me very very busy!
Until next time, Emily Jean
