Twins - 20 months old
Before long we will be celebrating Joshua and Saray's 2nd birthdays...I am not sure really how that is even possible, but its true and I am trying to wrap my mind around it.
We're embracing the talking stage with open arms; I love that we're able to communicate more clearly with each other. Saray's vocabulary amazes me, she says a minimum of 100 words and is starting to put together two word sentences. She often talks for Joshua, saying things like "Josh, cracker." or "Josh, all done." She is always looking out for Josh. She wants him to have what she is currently having, even if it's means that his pajamas need to come off too.
Joshua is content to let Saray do most of the talking, so most of the time he just goes along with what she is saying or asking for. There are times though where he will pipe up and speak for himself, like asking for juice, milk or raisins, etc. They are so connected but at the same time they desire their own independence and with that comes a little frustration on all our parts.
We have been spending every nice moment outside (we really haven't had very many nice days yet); the kids absolutely love the park and playing outside in our own big backyard. Saray asks for the park nearly every day, and if we happen to drive by a park without stopping to play, she lets me know that she is very unhappy with me. We're so ready for warmer days...we bought season passes to the outdoor water park again this year, can't wait for the kids to experience the water park all over again.
Well, I better go, Saray is up from her nap and is letting me know by screaming (why oh why can't she just wake up happy....)..
Until later....enjoy the previous post with all the outdoor pictures from April.
