Addison's days are full with preschool and dance class, both of which are going pretty well. Her biggest challenge is following directions and listening, but she's definitely made progress. She loves her teachers and all her friends at school, and we now have her in the habit of sharing her thoughts at the dinner table. We all take turns saying what the positives of our day were and Addison gets right into the conversation recapping her day. We're really happy we made the decision to get her into preschool and will continue with 3 days a week next school year. It's also been a nice introduction for us as far as what to expect out of the curriculum in the district. Isla is getting cuter by the minute. She's talking a lot and developing a funny sense of humor. She calls Addison "Iya" (meaning Isla) so we're working on that small detail with her. The girls are starting to play really well together and kind of become inseparable. They always want to be together, which is a good thing at this point. I doubt it will stay this way for long!
There have been some pre-Halloween festivities, including a Nature Center night-time trail walk (so fun!) and Addison's "Fall Party" at school. Addison is Captain Hook and Isla is Tinkerbell. Have I mentioned they are obsessed with Peter Pan? Not sure where they've actually seen it, but we have the soundtrack and they love the songs. Monday we'll go trick-or-treating around the neighborhood with Natalie and Gus, and Ba and Nana too. I will definitely get some pictures! In the meantime, here are a few that Judith (Nana) has taken from dance. DJ and I are going to class with them on Wednesday morning and we can't wait! The little curly blond cutie in the pictures is Claire - Addison's BEST buddy.
