All is good here, Angelique continues to amaze us with how much she has learned, and how much she has changed in just 4 months! She talks more clearly all the time, and is starting to put more words together to make sentences with nouns and verbs - and she does really well with please and thankyou!
The current fave activities are play-doh, having tea parties, and singing - lots of singing! Yay! A also likes Dora and The Wiggles on tv, plus of course taking care of her 'babies'.
We've started a couple of activities on weekday mornings - a playgroup on Tuesdays and swimming lessons on Thursdays - both are going great! A has taken to the water like, well - a fish! The level she started in is called 'sea turtles', reserved for 3 year olds to get them comfortable in the water - well she is now the only one in her class who will put her face in and even her whole head under the water - so I guess she's comfortable! :-) She jumps off the side and goes down the slide with no assistance, which is amazing to see!
And the playgroup is going well too - we were a little worried that Angelique would have 'babyhouse flashback' as that's what the room looks like, even to us! But it seems to be a bit easier each week, and I've managed to leave the group for a little bit longer each time - it'll be good for both of us to have a break from each other for a couple of hours! There are 9 kids there plus the teacher - they do crafts, sing songs and have a snack - looks like fun to me!
We're starting to cut back on Angelique's afternoon naps, in an effort to get her to bed a little earlier in the evenings - it's hit-and-miss so far but we'll get there!
Better run - hope this finds you well and happy!
Take care,
Angelique, Nic and Paul
