We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange this weekend and the kids kept busy all morning playing with the "new" stuff! I may often say, "Avi played with Hudson!" This first picture depicts what is really happening! Ha! They are playing "side by side" (which is normal play for Infants and Toddlers) and is often referred to as "parallel play." They seem to be enjoying experimenting with the airplanes.
Here's a picture of Avilene watching Sophie jump off the blue balance beam. Sophie kept saying, "Watch me Avi, watch me Avi, watch me Avi." And here's proof that Avi was watching!! She also watched Reid jump off the igloo onto the mattress. :) In a few months it will be Avi jumping and another baby watching her and waiting for their turn to jump!!
Ryan, Baby Nora's Dad, was watching Avi walk around this morning and was impressed how well she is doing. Avi usually arrives after he has dropped off Nora and Nora's Mommy picks her up in the afternoon. So Ryan hadn't watched Avi walking around for a few weeks. When Avi wakes up from her nap I will get her out of her crib, give her big loves (which she's usually ok with - sometimes!), and put her on the floor. She flies down the hall and I rarely have to walk slow following her!! Some children can't hardly stand up when they first wake up!! Ha!
