Counting and silly songs!

Arianna has mastered counting to 5! She sat in the back seat of the car and kept counting her toes...her cute little voice says: one...two...free...fo...Fi...Nine! She just keeps repeating it and repeating it! So adorable!

Matthew counts to 3. His new thing is climbing on the stepstool (or the couch) - he counts to 3 and then jumps off! Typical boy!

They both love doing Ring around the Rosie, Itsy Bitsy Spider, Pat-a-cake and If your're Happy and You know it! We have to do each song one time and they do the hand motions!

I feel this past week they have grown SO much! I'm so happy...but yet so sad! My babies are growing up!

Tonight Ari had her first "major" meltdown! I put her up to bed and she was squeezing my neck yelling "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy" as she was crying. I laid her in her bed after giving her a big hug and kiss and she kept screaming for me. After about 10 minutes I went up to get her (I know I shouldn't have but it was breaking my heart). So I brought her downstairs, gave her more milk, changed her diaper and let her play for 10 more minutes. I told her it's time for night night and she said: No Mommy and started screaming and crying Mommy again. I told her I love her and Mommy will be here in the morning when she wakes up. That didn't help because she continued to scream for me for 35 more minutes - then she finally passed out! Broke my heart!
