Avery
We read a story, pray and sing bedtime songs each night with
Avery. When asked what bedtime song he
wanted, several nights in a row he requested “Jingle Bell ROCK!” (with a rocker
style fist pump).
Avery asked, “How does Santa go around to the houses if the
earth is spinning?”
At preschool drop off, Avery was so excited to see his
teacher walking into the building. He
ran across the parking lot and approached her with an excited “Hello!” Then, he held out his hand and escorted her
into the school.
Avery seems to enjoy playing with Aileen’s toys almost as
much as his own. His little sister was
given a doll that recites a “Play and Learn” lyric tune. Given the fact that the doll’s voice sounds a
bit muffled, Avery mistaken it to say “Play and Nart”, so he calls it her Nart
doll.
Since being given a Star Wars play light saber for
Christmas, Avery has asked to watch Star Wars movies. We caught him “fighting” Darth Vader with all
his might in front of the TV.
Aileen
She happily coos and ahhs when we put her in her bedtime
footie jammies. She loves wearing them.
Aileen prefers not to wear socks. She pulls them off, one at a time to chew on
the toes each time we try to put them on.
The nursery workers at church comment on how happy Aileen
is. She contently crawls around, and
even occasionally stops to look up and giggle at one of the workers.
Aileen is not supposed to be in Avery’s room unsupervised
because of the many small toys that could be hazardous. However, that doesn’t stop Avery from trying
to lure her down the hallway back to his lair by beckoning her with the use of
her musical toys in his room.
Little Miss was given a winter coat that is white and furry
with Dalmatian black spots. We call it
her “Hollywood ” coat.
