Aubrey. She looks so little! I like looking at this picture to see that Aubrey also went through the awkward toddler hair phase. I'm never quite sure what to do with Cora's while it grows out.
Cora. This is Cora's "say cheese" face. She is very willing, but it doesn't quite capture her real smile.
Sisters:
And... I was just glad that these pictures were taken at 9:02 am and we (mostly) made it to church on time. Steven had a 7 am meeting, so I was on my own. The girls stayed up way late with friends and getting us all out the door on time was a struggle. They both squished their fingers in the closet door and Cora had a blow-out in the tub. Of course.
And speaking of growing up, along with that independence has come the 18 month-old attitude. I also have the wiggliest kids around and I'm dreading the flight alone with them to Utah this weekend.
At 18 months old Cora:
- Has mostly transitioned to one nap. Still takes 2 some days and she is great at putting herself to sleep. She sleeps 10-11 hours at night and about 2 in the day.
- Starting to fight me on her vegetables. She likes to throw her food on the ground and say, "I drop it" but I've caught on to that one...
- I'll try not to be a proud parent on this one, but her language abilities are really impressive. She is starting to put two word sentences together. I guess it helps that she has a sister who is always talking :)
- She is getting pretty tired of sitting through all of Aubrey's lessons, so I signed her up for her own gymnastics class starting in July. We did a trial class and she was beaming from ear to ear that it was finally her turn.
- She is a sweet, loving little girl. Always coming up and giving me kisses, and saying, "love you."
We love our Cora! Can't believe she is now closer to two than one.
