This has been an exciting week for everyone! Claire used the potty for the first time this week (she will probably be upset with me when she is a teenager for sharing this picture). She peed in it on Father's day (what a treat!) and did a poopy today. What a big girl. Only 2 years and 4 months old. Jack is still uninterested>
Last Saturday we decided to run through the sprinklers together. At first, they both didn't like it, but by the end the kept saying, "again" and "one more time."
I am amazed every day by what they can do. I have to write it down because I won't believe it in 20 years. AT this age, Jack knows all of his letters and what each one says (A says aaa, B says Buh etc.). He knows how to count to 20 in English and Spanish. He can even do simple addition and subtraction! Claire knows how to count in English and Spanish as well. She knows most of her letters but not all of them yet. She has a vast vocabulary - she knows animals that I don't even know! She can tell the difference between an ostrich and an emu. She knows the difference between a jaguar, a cougar, a tiger, a lion and just a regular cat. She also can sing lots of songs (not just one or two words -- but EVERY word). She knows 'Twinkle, twinkle", the ABC song, "Old MacDonald," "Where is thumbman," "the Wheels on the bus," "Happy Birthday," "This old man, he played one..." "hickory dickory dock," "Row row row your boat." It is really unbelievable. They turn 2 years and 5 months tomorrow. They amaze me every day!!!
Here are several pictures from their adventures this week. We also went to the library and the bookstore for the first time. We went to the farmer's market for the first time. We visited the park, the grocery store, several restaurants...the twins have had a packed week!
