Hello Everybodee! (insert grover voice). I've been reading way to much sesame street magaize. LOL
October has been a very busy month!!! We've been picking out costumes, decorating the house, picking pumpkins and enjoying the fall when the sun is out. Hannah and Heather are excited for Halloween! Heather says "happy hala eeeeeen!!!" when we come down the stairs and see's all the decorations. She is really scared of the spooky stuff but fine with the nice stuff. We will carve our pumpkins tomorrow night. It should be fun! Well, I have tons of pictures for this month.
Oh I should give an update on the girls since this is how I remember everything they do. Heather is starting to talk a lot. She repeats words right back to you, sometimes not so clearly but she is really trying hard. She says two words together now too, occasionally 3 like "no my hand" when Hannah tries to hold her hand or something. She is soooo much more communicative, and life is getting easier with it. We tell her to try to tell us with her words when she is having a frustrating moment. Both Hannah and Heather play together pretty well. Heather likes to wrestle Hannah and they both enjoy that quite a bit. It is especially funny when Heather tries to do it in the bathtub. They giggle so much. Hannah is doing wonderfully with potty trianing at night. We wake her up now just before we go to bed and take her to the potty. It really eliminates accidents. On nights when we can't get her up to pee, she stays dry most of the time too. We are so proud of her!!! She doesn't really need reminders anymore to go to the potty, which was a huge struggle for us. Now she goes on her own when she needs to go. We only have her go when we are going out where there won't be a potty or a long drive. I guess Heather is picking up on the potty thing too because she peed on the potty this month!!! She asked to sit on the potty before a bath one night and after a few minutes went!! We were all surprised! She hasn't gone since and I am not pushing her in anyway. I let her sit on the potty if she wants and that is about it.
