At the end of this week, the girls and I will have been in school for a month! Hard to believe.....but here's whats new:
1. Catalina is a reader and working on her first 100 site words (which she almost has). That girl could not be happier. She eats a turkey and cheese sandwich everyday for lunch. She has made new friends and seems to be coming out of her shell. She has confidence!
2. Ava wants to go to school everyday. Today she took an hour nap on the mat while class went on around her. She has "the gift."
3. The girls are still swimming once a week in a semi-private lesson. Ava just passed her last survival swim class and now will be working on stroke development. Ava is a fish and incredibly comfortable in the water. She easily keeps up with Cat and her friends in the pool.
4. We started gymnastics again after taking the summer off. I signed the girls up at a "real" gym and their first class was tonight. Catalina could not wipe the smile off her face. She is working out on real equipment and keeping up with the 9 and 10 year olds. Her coach is on the ASU Gymnastics Team. Ava had a blast in her class with the 3's. That girl can really follow directions when she is motivated!
5. I am working four days a week and enjoying Wednesdays with Ava May. Last week we got our nails and toes done and went to Build a Bear and made a dog. Ava named her Sherry Shirley and dressed her in purple. She took her to show and tell!
6. Todd is working hard! He is looking for a weekend to take the girls camping! Yee haw! (I'm out! No sleeping in a tent for me!)
I promise to get out the camera to shoot pictures this weekend. We are now counting down the weeks until we go see Papa and Mimi in Florida!
