December 1, 2008Breoni is just loving Gymnastics. She can tell you that she goes to gymnastics on Mondays. I also have a great time going to gymnastics. Soon Breoni will move into the class for 3 year olds (where mommy can't come with her) and I will start going with Kyrie!
December 5, 2008
Breoni is such a big helper. She wants to do everything I do with Kyrie. She helps with feeding (as you can see here!), holding, dressing, bath time and even diapering.
December 6, 2008It was a very warm December day so while Kyrie was napping Breoni, Jerry and I went out and played in the hot tub. Breoni calls it her 'warm swimming pool'. She is getting very brave in the hot tub. She can touch bottom every where now and walks all around. She jumps off the sides. She especially loves throwing things into the bubbles and watching them swirl around.
A little info about January here.... since I never took any pictures and didn't realize that I didn't talk about it until just now... We signed Breoni up for swim lessons. Just Breoni and I would go. She was struggling some so Jerry and Kyrie started coming with us. And, Breoni was still a bit scared... which I think is my fault since I took her down the 'big' slide before lessons started when we had just gone over to the Rec. Center to play and the first time we did great. She wanted to go again. The second time we came out of the slide a little side ways and she ended up going underwater. And, her whole outlook on the water changed. So, we are slowly working her back into being confident in the water. Kyrie, on the other hand, loves the water. She looks a little surprised after going underwater but continues on like no big deal. We didn't sign up for the second session of lesson due to my surgery, but will sign up again! We really want the girls to be confident in the water since Lake Powell is a major vacation place for us!
December 10, 2008Breoni LOVES her books. She 'pretends' to be reading all the time. She has memorized several of the books that we read at bed time. She can 'read' all the pages "I LOVE YOU THROUGH AND THROUGH" and there are several books where if you pause, she will fill in the next word (at least!), sometimes she can fill in a sentence or two! It makes be incredibly happy that she loves her books! Here is a really cute video of her 'pretend' reading in the bath tub.
December 14, 2008We finally got a snow storm big enough to make a Snow Man. I don't know who was more excited about making him... Jerry or Breoni. (I think Jerry!!!) But, regardless, I think we created a first rate SnowMan!
