Despite the lack of posts lately, life is chugging along over here. Sorry for the lack of pictures lately; our camera broke. We'll be getting another one in the next month or so...
In the meantime, here's the latest:
-- Lily starts kindergarten on July 21st! She'll be at a small charter school with only 14 kids in each classroom. Plus she knows quite a few kids there so that will help make the transition easier on her.
-- It's still a little up in the air where Vivian will be going for preschool...it really depends on the hours for Mom's job/classes.
-- The girls recently enjoyed the beach--or rather, the pool at the condo! We didn't get in very much beach-time in since Viv got sunscreen in her eye (and then rubbed her sandy hands in her eye), and Lily did not care for the waves (just like last year). Viv also turns pink really quickly (despite SPF 50), unlike Lily, who turns golden brown.
-- Viv loves wearing her hair in 2 ponytails! It looks VERY cute! Pictures coming soon...
-- Both girls recently got "big girl beds" (twin size...bye bye toddler beds).
-- Viv's getting very good at riding her tricycle, whereas poor Lily can still barely can peddle. But she can jump really forward really, really far with those long skinny legs of hers.
-- Lily is also reading a little, and is EXTREMELY verbal. As in a constant running commentary all day long. And, she likes to tell people, "Mommy says I have the gift of gab!" Vivian has finally started asserting herself and exclaiming, "EXCUSE ME! I'M TRYING TO TALK, LILY!"
-- Right now the girls are both attending Lily's preschool for the summer; I've warned the teacher that the girls are "rather passionate" with each other. Translation: they will spend 50% of the time playing very well together, and the rest of the time scraping and screaming. Oh well, what else do you expect from sisters who are 18 months apart?
Stay tuned for more...
This is before Lily's latest haircut.
And, this is Viv's latest hairstyle.
