Sock Hand and Silly Girls


William and I have laughed several times as we have gone in to Adeline's room to get her out of her bed and she has taken her sock off of her foot and put it on her hand. I think she uses it as a glove or something. It has become sort of a habit with her, if she is not wearing her shoes, her sock ends up on her hand. Then she will stroke her face with her sock hand. She is quite a character.

Adeline's vocabulary has been expanding. She has started repeating words and trying to say new words with our prompting. One of the funnest words she says is "meat balls". Mostly because of the way that she says is -- her lips poke way out. I love getting to hear her finally talk. I feel like I am getting to know her personality better.

Yesterday, Maylen, our very verbal child, was sitting at the table eating some fried tortilla strips that William had accidentally over-cooked, and she said, "Daddy, these chips don't taste correct." We cannot help but laugh when she says things that sound so proper.

It is little moments like these that make life so fun and sweet with these kiddos!
