Rainy Days and Bathtubs

Last month we decided that Maya would go to half days the first 2 weeks of June in an effort to help her slowly wean off of a school schedule and help start the moving transition. Of course it's been raining for what seems to be weeks on end and this morning Maya declared that she would rather stay at school until 5! So...so much for our plan of tapering.

Yesterday afternoon I worked on some grading and Danny took Maya to go pick up Fin. They made a bit of a stop to take a look at the river and splash in the puddles...not to mention burn off a bit of energy.

Lots of fashion for puddle stomping!

Finley had her own kind of splashing to do...in the bathtub. She has grown up so much in the past couple of weeks. Her language has exploded and she is often speaking in full sentences these days. Some of her favorites include: "Mommy/Daddy wake up!", "I need help, please", "I want that" and "MAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAA"!

She has also gotten a bit of a fro going. She went from being our bald baby to being a chia pet really.

Here she is perfecting the "slow burn take" in the bathtub.

What?


No way, Jose!

Well....maybe....

GOT YA!!!

Starting on June 14th both girls will go down to care on Tuesday/Thursday full days at the Co-op until mid-July. We will see how it all works. Hopefully we will start our big moving adventure about the same time.
