Life Lately - Almost Holiday Season!

I'm seriously so delinquent in posting and I don't even have a good excuse.   Perhaps that's because there really has been a lot of nothing lately.  Now, don't get me wrong there is always something going on....but really it hasn't been anything mind blowing.  Grace and I are getting in to a really good pattern (can you BELIEVE she's 26 months in a few days....I surely can't) and it's amazing to see her grow each day.

That being said, we did have her conferences at school last weekend.  Really, they didn't say a whole lot - she's really right on target for everything.  The things she's REALY good at though (and exceeds her classmates) includes using a spoon, knowing colors, and ability to write/color.  Also, they said she's so quiet during the day.  I laughed, because each day after daycare, she won't stop talking the whole way home. I'm sure it's her just being comfortable.  A few months ago she'd scream each day I'd bring her to daycare.  Now, she walks right in, comes back to give me a kiss, and then goes to play. She's doing so well and really getting a pattern down.   Today, after a few hours of playing at home, I asked her if she wanted to go to the gym. She said yes, and then said "bye-bye" to Dad....and walked downstairs.  She certainly is comfortable there and likes the hour that she get out of the house and is able to just play. 

Still a picky eater.  Still learning more and more words every day, and still the learner by observing.  During ECFE class, she never partakes in circle time...instead just watches.  Though, she came home, and sang an entire song learned from there. She's definitely a learned by observing.  The teachers said this will come in useful as she's older, as she will be more careful in what she does and learn by others making mistakes:)  I love it.

Anyway - just so behind in this so I thought I'd give a small update.  Josh is well, Lila is still driving me crazy, and I'm still so thankful for the chance to be home with my precious girl and help take care of the everyday nuisances so Josh doesn't have to.
