*all my by self!


2 new feats:

Vera can now put on her own coats and sweatshirts - every 3 out of 5 tries :)  The first time was a few days ago - she came out of her room having put on her coat, boots, hat and hot pink feather boa.  I wish I had a picture of her beaming face: SO.PROUD.

Also she climbed out of her crib a couple hours ago!  I'm so glad for the excuse to put her in a big girl bed... which I'm hoping will ironically help her to stay in her own bed all night.  I'm thinking when she wakes up we can kneel by her bedside until she sleeps again??  

I can put my coat on all my by self too!

You both are so cute! I am excited to hear about the big girl bed transition... we haven't started that process here. Hope you all are doing well. We miss you tons! - Beth, Cody & Greta

Ha! I love it. Good job you two. Your both coming along just fine. :) I like the little bit of your tree I could see too.

PS-so happy I made the blog!

Two things:
First, Levi climbs out of the bed as soon as he wakes, I mean the minute he wakes up, but that may be because he was never in a crib...now that I've been a big downer onto the second thing!
Second, I saw a book with Vera's name in it, so fun! Dr. Suess' ABCs.

Way to go Anne and Vera:) Hee,hee. Seriously, though, V is so good at learning how to put on and take off clothes. She was putting on her own socks when she was like 3 months old! Sam and Amelia still show no interest. I told Tara that their Auntie is going to have to teach them how while we are visiting..Echo is a a clothes putter oner too. See you in like 30 mins:) Jen
