Wow, time flies!

Our little monkey now



Just a couple of our summer activities: Swimming and Biking!

Hi Everyone! So, it's been an increadibly long time (like 10 months) since I've updated this blog....what can I say....life is BUSY! We have a little walking, talking, toddler all of a sudden. Here is a recent email I sent as an update to my parents in Scotland to give you an idea of where things are at now.....

Chloe is having a super fun time, and the big development this week is that she learned how to say "yes"! After a few weeks of the answer to every question being "no", it's a relief. Now, when you ask her a question, she can give an exuberant "yes" or "no". You can also reason with her much more, and she understands that she needs to do something in order to get what she wants (i.e. get dressed in order to go to the park). She is getting to be lots of fun and super interactive. She loves to colour at her little table, "bath" her baby, "wipe" her baby, and sit her baby at the table to watch her colour! This fall, Chloe and I are joining a playgroup, and she and Sean are signing up for music and movement lessons.

Oh, the other really cute thing this week is that she can say some animal sounds. She knows the sounds for horse, cow and monkey. Soooo cute. We went to a festival this weekend where there were some horses, and she LOVED them. She got to pet one of them and it was the highlight of her day.

Anyways, I will try to keep the updates more frequent from now on!
