Communicating what they want...

The girls vocabulary is expanding from just being able to identify certain items to telling us what they want (and when they want it)! They have both been saying "Up" for a while now, but just recently they started using other commands as well. Here are some of their new ones:

• Down
• On
• Off
• Open
• Bite (when they want a bite of whatever it is that we are eating)
  
• Hot (they even tell me when they are getting too hot!)
  
• Eat (they use this as a command to let me know they are hungry, and sometimes they even tell me what they want. For example, "Eat Banana".)

The best part of it all is that the whining is our house has gone down significantly now that they are able to talk and tell us what they want. It makes things so much easier!

Kylee has started saying "I Love You", which sounds more like "I Lub Yooou"! It's so sweet. She is also able to go down two consecutive stairs without holding on to anything!!

Kaylyn love's to "talk" on the phone. She is constantly chatting away to who knows who. Apparently whoever she talks to makes her mad from time to time because she has a tendency to start yelling at them and giving them a piece of her mind! :)

Last night Kaylyn climbed in her baby doll stroller and Kylee took that opportunity to take her sister for a ride. It was a riot! They had such a great time and laughed hysterically when they would crash and fall over. They even took turns as to who got to push and who got to ride. What will these two think of next?? (or do I even want to know??)

Dance class continues to go well, and the girls love it! Every week they get that much better! It's a nice break for me as well to get out of the house and socialize with adults. They both are desperately trying to learn how to Jump, and spend quite a bit of time trying to do so but haven't yet mastered it yet. They have both perfected their twirls and are pretty good at Shuffles as well! They love to stomp around in their tap shoes. They would do it all day if I let them.
