Candy Land Queen!

Hello all!  I hope everyone had a fantastic week.  We did wonderfully this week.  We've had a lot of fun, especially Brooke with her all new Candy Land!  I think this week was pretty dominated by Candy Land and dancing.  Winry has become quite the dancing pro (2 videos there)!  I love having such wonderful and fun girls!  Never a dull moment, even when I could really use one... ;)


The girls really love bath time, and Winry definitely likes the water more than Brooke did when she was little.  Like, Winry REALLY likes water!  Yeah, she kept dunking her face into her bath water!  She only choked once, and we tried to keep that as her last time too.

Winry sure is growing up a lot too!  I know she turned 1 last week, so I should be realizing that, but... I don't.  This past week we left the pantry open and Winry grabbed out a snack holder and just started chowing down on wheat thins!  What a sneak!  Her hand's even still stuck in there.


Monica took the girls grocery shopping and they got to sit together driving the car for the first time!  They both really loved it, until snack time.  Winry couldn't eat her banana on her own, so she had to come sit up by Monica and get helped, but for a while Brooke had a co-pilot!


That night when I was getting Winry ready for bed she started to clap her feet together!  After that it was story time!  We've started reading a story with Winry and Brooke before Winry goes to bed.  Winry is really starting to love stories!


Brooke and Winry continue to drive around on the car together.  I think Winry did fall off on a sharp turn once this last week, but for the most part it's all good fun.  That said, when I looked at the pictures I had Winry looks to be having a blast, but Brooke seems... I guess I'll say cautious.


On Friday I was working from home in the afternoon because it was snowing quite a lot and I wanted to not be in traffic, and while I was working Jelly crammed herself into Monica's clothes pile.  You might have to look close to find her!


Today Jelly decided to take a nap on the marker tray for Brooke's white board!  What a crazy cat.  She'll just sleep anywhere she can fit herself.


Going through Monica's pictures I found this real cute one of Winry.  I honestly have no clue what's going on, or what she's eating, but I still liked it!  Maybe Monica will add more details. (Brooke was eating an apple and decided to give Winry a couple slices. She'd never had apple slices before, but she did really well with them and loved them!)


This past week we also went swimming, but sadly forgot our waterproof camera, so we didn't get any pictures.  Everyone had a great time, though they were working on the slide a bunch and Brooke really wanted to go on it.  Also, right as we were getting ready to leave the lifeguards came by and said "everyone out, poop in the pool."  Rough day...

Come Follow Me is going really great for us, and I feel like Brooke is doing really well with it.  Today we had our recap lesson with her and she did awesome.  She remembered some stuff from primary today, and had great answers when we were asking her questions.  I'm so grateful for this new program.  It is definitely helping our family learn and study better than we did in the past!

I think that's all I've got for this week.  I hope everyone has a wonderful week!
