Sissy was queen for a day when we stopped by Burger King on our way to Spokane for Thanksgiving.
Nyla is waving hi in this family picture. Sis was digging those fries and ketchup. Notice the little flyer in the window there. Ya, that was a little ad for Twilight, "New Moon" paraphinalia (not sure how to spell that). I got those little hamburgers and I admit that we chose to go to Burger King all together because they were offering Twilight coupons and collector cards when you got those burgers. Not the greatest burger in the world, but they are kid friendly. :)
Here Sis is giving me a "head butt" as we like to call it. Its so cute when she does it! You just have to be careful when she's still giving head butts and you aren't paying attention! She'll whack ya!
Liz is already holding a crayon and any writing utensil she can get her hands on like an adult! She is also our resident artist. Thank goodness for magic erasers! She is already drawing fulls scale murals on the walls! I've had to take the magic eraser to the hallway walls and doors a few times already. My mom said she started drawing and doing little things like Sis does as well as me, when she was very small. She has the patience and ability to do very small motor skills already. She has taken one of my spools of thread and stuck the writing tip of a pen in the spoke type top of the thread. It would fall out and she'd do it over and over again.
Its funny how different and alike the girls are. Nyla never touched the walls with a crayon or pen. She's just now doing small motor skills. But she has loved her books since she was really little and she picked up on sign language and word reconition very quickly. Sis is just now recognizing signs and is able to point out "nose", "mouth" and "eye". They both started walking at 10 mos! And they both love to climb!
I just love both my girls! Nyla is so independent and funny. Lizzy is so lovey and caring. How fast they grow!
