A Preview to Senior Portraits...

Contrary to Owen, Ava was all in the mood to pose for pictures and do whatever I asked her to. She is certainly Miss Personality! She is really growing up. Soon we will be starting preschool and I can't hardly believe it. We are working on having Ava do more things for herself. We try not to use sippy cups and she is showering pretty much all by herself (she just recently figured out the water temperature adjustment), even combing her hair. She is doing great and seems to love the idea of being more "grown up". She is so willing to help with any chores I ask her to do from unloading the dishwasher to putting away laundry items. She loves to take care of Owen and is quite successful in changing his mood if he starts to fuss. He just loves her to death! She struggles with sharing her toys with Owen as he can get ahold of almost anything now. Usually if she is prompted, she will give him back what she takes away. If the truth was to be told, she loves having him around. I've left them playing together in the playroom and come back to find them both in the closet together and she is talking to him just like he is going to converse back with her. I know she can't hardly wait for the day when he can really participate in her games. Posted by Picasa
