So, last Monday Monica took Brooke to dance class. Brooke's loose tooth was getting REALLY loose. They got to dance a few minutes early, and Brooke asked if she could try to pull her tooth out, and then pulled it out! Right there in the parking lot! Brooke was SUPER excited about it, and of course the tooth fairy came. She got a gold dollar coin, and a tooth pillow she can put future teeth in when she looses them. The once next to the one that came out is getting pretty loose too, so it might be coming out soon!
We got some double step stools a bit ago, and the girls pulled them out and were playing... some dancing game on one. They were having so much fun. Winry loved getting danced all around by Brooke. They'd swap positions too, but I feel like they definitely had the best time when Brooke danced Winry around.
We got some snow last week, but not much. We headed out the next morning to play, and it's good we did because by the end of work the lawn was mostly cleared. The girls ganged up on me in a snowball fight, which is typical.
We did a bunch of sledding around the law. The girls took turns pulling each other around. I had to crawl behind and push the sled when Winry was pulling, which was pretty rough, but the girls had a great time!
We made spring rolls one night sometime in the past two weeks, and the girls helped out. After getting the mixture all together it was time to fill and roll the spring rolls. Brooke and Winry even made them all on their own!
Grayson has enjoyed sitting in this seat. It's a new fun thing to do, and we put things on the tray and he works on learning to pick them up.
I took the girls out to swing in the back yard. Notice the lack of snow? Things warmed up... some... It was still decently cold. Grayson came out with us too so that Monica would work on dinner. We all had a good time, and everyone stayed nice and warm.
Last Sunday Winry worked on her make up for church. She put a little eye shadow on, and put some on the back of her hands too. She really likes doing make up.
Sometimes I like to put Grayson in the carrier. He really likes to be in there, and it's a lot easier to hold him in there for long periods of time.
Monica helped the girls build a fort this past week. They really liked it, though chairs changing positions around the table since then has somehow been a large and never ending problem. I'm not sure how they keep getting re-moved into the "wrong" spot, but the girls always want the padded chairs.
When Monica took Brooke to dance class (and her tooth came out) Winry wanted to go out and chalk the driveway. I was worried about Grayson getting cold out there, so I put him in the bear suit! Then we all had a good time.
The girls ate lunch at their picnic table they got for Christmas. The weather was pretty nice a few days this past week, so it was a great time to head outside!
Winry has been putting her Fox jacket/stuffed animal to bed in Grayson's bassinette/our bed non-stop for the last week or two. I'm not sure he's left our room since... a long time.
One morning when Winry woke up her hair looked like this. She must have had a very exciting night sliding her head on her pillow! That's a poof and a half!
Winry drew this picture recently. I really like how she draws her people. I'm pretty sure she said this was "Winry and Mommy."
With the little seat out for Grayson the girls have re-discovered their love for the seat. They're great at doing buckles, but less so at getting them undone...
Jelly has been sleeping in Brooke's bed a bunch recently. She's moved up to sleeping next to Brooke's pillow, to Brooke's delight. Brooke loves when Jelly is in her bed. Maybe sometime Jelly will start to sleep their all night. Brooke would love that so much.
Today we went over to see the temple. It is, of course, still closed, so we just sat on the other side of the street. However, it was SOO windy, so we didn't stay for very long. Here's everyone enjoying the view!
Monica and Brooke did a water color "class" together. Monica has started watching an instagram that posts a weekly water color class and follows along. This last week was an elephant, and Brooke really liked it and wanted to do one too. Today Monica did another one, and Brooke painted one too! Look how great that is! Natural artist.
