We completely forgot to post last week. The days just go by so quickly. I can hardly even remember what we've done the last two weeks. I guess I'll just mention a few things that the girls are doing as they grow and learn. Sylvia seems to really enjoy her school. She is the most popular 'gringa' in her class. Her teacher, Milca, and the teacher's aide, Jessica, have been very helpful in helping her with her Spanish and Sylvia helps everyone else with their English. She is doing very well with both languages. After she gets out of school each day we take her somewhere to enjoy some time together as a family. Last week we went to the library, swimming at Aaralyn's, and the neighborhood basketball court to shoot some hoops. And of course, she likes to ride her Dora Tricycle around the yard. She hardly ever rides the bike we got her for Christmas. I guess it's still just too big for her and to hard to maneuver. She helped us do the dishes one day last week. She actually did quite a good job. Benjamin make sure of that and was right next to her the whole time.
Vivian loves to walk. And she's getting very good at it. She'll sometimes swing her arms back and forth a couple of times when she walks. She says 'ba ba ba' as a general term for just about everything and 'oof oof' when she sees a dog. She likes to play with her big sister who often gets too rough with her. I've noticed that she will imitate what Sylvia does. Now we're in trouble.
She also likes to explore different places as you can see from the picture of her in the kitchen cupboard. We sure love our two girls.
