This week I have felt AMAZING, and am taking full advantage of it. I have been cooking and baking up a storm and spending lots of time with the girls and friends. I always forget how little gets done when you don't feel good. The past 12 weeks passed very, very, slowly as I was exhausted and nauseous through it all. However, I am starting to see blue sky and this week has flown by. I haven't had a nap since Sunday...and it's Friday, woot-woot (that may have something to do with Miya only having one nap all week :( )
Miya...what is going on with Miya. She has stayed out of mischief for a while now. She still LOVES reading books, which we do for at least an hour every day (most days it's closer to two). She is getting excited for baby #3. I don't think she totally comprehends the situation yet as she thinks she has a baby in her tummy too. A highlight of her week (actually last week) was been eating sweet corn. Corn is her favorite to begin with, she asks for it at every meal. So when we had sweetcorn last week she was very excited. I told her she had to eat everything on her plate before she could have sweetcorn. Well, it was gone within 5 min (a record for miss pokey eater) and she then devoured 2 entire ears of sweet corn. We have never had such a quiet meal. So of course we did it again later in the week...aah peaceful meal!!
Jayden...Jades is starting to say words. Yeah!! She can say daddy, iya (miya), horsey, ah-vir (oliver), amen, and endi (wendi). She says these words very clearly, however she only says them when SHE wants to. I think we have a very strong-willed child here. We have been struggling with naps with her too, so I have started to nix the morning nap. She's not quite ready to have just one nap a day so every couple of days she'll take two shorter naps. She LOVES Miya and following her around doing whatever she's doing. This often leads to screaming since she doesn't understand the concept of sharing yet. Jayden also enjoys the beach. She is known for eating shovel-fulls of sand (no exaggeration) which we see in the diapers for the next week. Her favorite is playing with buckets full of water; she puts her head in them (to drink the very clean water of course) and sitting in them. She also enjoys getting full of sand and then sitting on whoever is in a chair. Not a fun game for the one in the chair.
The girls just seem to keep growing. I'm so thankful to be able to enjoy it!

Do you see the mischievous look in Jayden's eyes?
