8 days away from the big 2-0!

I mean 20 months! HOLY SMOKES...the time has flown by in some ways, and in other ways time has gone by very slowly for me. My girls are growing like weeds right before my eyes. In the past few months they have progressed so much. They are really talking a TON now. Ms. Anna, their teacher said they aren't talking that much to her. BUT, she did tell me, last Thursday Sarah told her NO, when she asked her to do something. She said she almost fell over laughing as this tiny little non-talking child spurted out NO to her when she asked her to put her ball away! I almost fell over laughing. That is definitely my daughter for you! They change on a daily basis and i'm really starting to enjoy them more. The best part though, is sitting back watching them have these little conversations between themselves now. I could sit on the couch for hours and watch them interact. It's amazing how much they talk to each other. It's a conversation i can almost understand, but yet, not completely!

They are still very shy little girls. As a matter of fact, today, a teacher at Hannah's school came running up to me to check them out and tell me she has 27 year old identical boys. She then asked the age difference between Hannah and the twins(29 months) and she told me she had a singleton and then had the twins SIXTEEN MONTHS later! WHOA! Talking about the first year being a blur. Mine was too, but goodness, i couldn't imagine 16 months apart. And i thought i had it bad! :) HA HA!

Anyway, the girls are really becoming such big girls. They use their spoons and forks really well. They use two to three word sentences. They understand almost everything i say. They are also so caring toward each other and Hannah. NOW, DO NOT get me wrong, they have tons of moments(fighting, biting and slapping). However, when one falls and starts crying the other will run up to the hurt one & help her up and give her a kiss. It's soo cute.

One very weird part of watching the twins is how the switch roles, sometimes on a daily basis. One day, one of the girls will hang with Hannah, then next day the other will be Hannah's BFF. Of course, when Hannah is gone they are also very different. They play together, make little hiding places together, and chase after each other. It's so cute.

I think watching Hannah has really made them progress much faster. They love to play dress up with her and sometimes they even play by themselves. They love taking Hannah's clothes and putting them on. They love wearing dress up shoes and they love it when Hannah puts her play make up on them and fixes their hair. Can you tell our house is full of girls or what?
