Against the Law

Jace was laying on the floor this afternoon and Avaree was reading to him. Apparently Jace was messing with her and she didn't like it.
Avaree: Jace, you're not supposed to scratch Big Sister, I'm trying to read to you. Don't hit me. [whining now] You're pulling my hair.  [A few minutes later....] That's it, I'm not reading to you anymore. You slapped me, pulled my hair, scratched me, and pulled my hair again. That's against the law!

Show off!

This video is from Sunday morning. I love how he kept looking to make sure we were watching him!

Jace's New Thing

I've finally been able to get a few videos of Jace doing his new thing. He does this ALL the time now! Usually every time he sees my phone, he stops and wants to get the phone.

Kindergarten Picture

Avaree's school pictures just came in. I think they turned out pretty good (for school pictures), although her hair looked better when I dropped her off that morning! She's growing up so fast!

The Rockettes

We were at Nemours a couple of weeks ago for Avaree's allergy appointment and two of The Rockettes came for a visit. Avaree was so excited at first and couldn't wait to go see them, but when it was her turn, she was shy and wanted no part in it! She wouldn't take her picture with them. A photographer for the newspaper was there and took a picture of Avaree hiding under my shirt. Of course, that made the front page of the Metro section (see it here)! There is also a video on there and you can see us in the background. She had no idea who The Rockettes were so when we got in the car, I found some videos on youtube on my iPhone so she could see. She said "Is that their leg over their head?!?"

Feet!

Jace found his feet today and he loves them!

 

Playdate with Cousin Matt

GranDawn and Aunt Stephanie brought Matt over to visit Jace and Avaree a few days ago. Matt is 5 weeks older and Jace is bigger than him! It's so fun to watch them together. At 5 months and 4 months, they are already fighting over toys. Every time Jace got a block, Matt had to get it from him and if he couldn't, he would get upset. It was so funny!
