Growing up...

This week I have learned that my baby girls are not babies anymore. They are not those same cute little girls I brought home from the hospital. They are still cute and yes they are still little girls, but they are quickly turning into toddlers. They are always moving and always doing anything and everything. Sam and I have learned that they are really starting to mimic us in everything we do. They see us folding towels, so they fold towels. They see us unloading the dishwasher, so they think they need to unload the dishwasher. It's not exactly helpful, but I know it will be one day. One of the girls new favorite things to do right now is play with their baby dolls. One day I showed them how to wrap the baby in the blanket and now they try to swaddle their babies like mommy does. They take the time to lay the blanket (or dishtowel they get out of the drawer) then the lay the baby down and try and wrap her up. It is the cutest thing. Morgan will even pat the babies back on her shoulder when she get the baby wrapped up. So cute!

The other day I decided to get a couple newborn diapers out that I had saved for them to play with. I showed them how to put the diaper on the baby and they of course picked it right up. As you can see, Elmo is now wearing diapers.
The girls are also enjoying playing with some of the new toys they got for Christmas. They got a little vacuum and lawn mower that they enjoy pushing around the house. As well, as a toy ironing board with an iron and squirt bottle. They are getting good at it too! Madilyn and Morgan also got a nice collection of Fisher Price Little People. The doll house with the people and the barn with a bunch of animals. We're working on learning the different farm animals right now.
