Learning to use the DVD Player



Why can they never smile at the same time???

So as an update, Avery is walking everywhere now. We think it was about a week and a half ago that she switched from crawling to walking as her primary mode of transportation. She also still puts everything in her mouth, and she is an eating machine. Audrey is talking so much. She uses English mostly, but she's quite good with Spanish as well (though if I try to say something to her in Spanish, she says "no, Mommy speak English." ... apparently Iain is the only approved parent for speaking Spanish). We're making slow progress on the potty training, and her new favorite thing to wear is a pink and white plaid dress that she calls her "Cinderella" dress. They are playing much more together these days, which is so thrilling for me to watch.

A couple of days ago, Audrey was picking out bathing suits for her and Avery to wear to the beach (they each have about 10 bathing suits, thanks to Aunt Bud). Audrey picked out a bikini for Avery (the only one in the drawer) and then said "I wear top and bottom bathing suit like Avery and Mommy." So I told her it was called a "bikini" and she said "I wear a zuchini". I was cracking up inside, and told her it was a bikini. She repeated bikini, but over the course of the afternoon, each time she said what she wanted (including when Iain got home), she called it a zuchini. Hilarious!
