Avery and Aileen - isms

Avery

"majammies" = pajamas

Thinks that when mommy shuffles cards, the sound of the cards makes a "stinker" noise.  "Mom, put the cards into two piles and stinker them down." = a.k.a. shuffle them

tries to blow raspberries on his mom's tummy when she isn't expecting it



Aileen

stacks 2-3 blocks on her own

often whispers to herself when playing

beautiful long eyelashes and soft, natural baby curls in her hair

tiny little toes

prefers to be barefoot and is still not used to the idea of any kind of shoes or socks

constantly curious - finds joy in experiencing things using all of her senses

quiet, gentle, but can be playful when she warms up to you

still grabs her sleeve cuff while sucking her thumb as if she is giving herself a hug

tries to imitate her parents by tickling herself after we tickle her ribs

gets so excited to see Clint when he arrives home and walks into the door after being gone all day at work - she will squeal and quickly crawl across the room to greet him
