All is well here in the Water household. We are trying to get ready for our big trip to Europe which is in 5 more days. Sophie is packed and most of Avery's things. Now just Jeremy and I need to get our things situated. Wish us luck flying overseas with 2 young kids. This is Avery's first European Adventure and he is almost 9 months, he will actually turn 9 months in Spain and I will turn 35 and Jeremy 33. I guess it could be considered a bithday trip! Avery is doing well, he has his 2 bottom teeth and 4 top teeth. I could be wrong but I have a feeling that he is getting another one up there. He hasn't been eating as well, is drooling again, and crabbier than usual, or so it seems.
He is enjoying the new foods he has tried including mexican rice, refried beans, guacamole, pancakes, pear slices, yogurt, and his new favorite whipped cream!
He moves everwhere and is totally different than his sister was at his age. He is into EVERYTHING! Maybe it's the boy in him but he goes after anything in his reach. Outlets, cords, dog dishes, he's not too picky. We really have to make sure there are no tiny toys on the floor. Not an easy task when big sister Sophie has craft stuff EVERYWHERE.
Sophie is getting ready for her final days of preschool. They had caterpillars that just turned into butterflies and they will soon let them go. Also, a tadpole that they are waiting on to turn into a frog. Her last day is May 21st and will be celebrated by a class picnic at a local park.
She was such a sweetie today. Playing nicely with her toys when I can't play with her, listening to directions, and being a great big sis! Today she said, "I love my brother, I am so happy to have a brother. Also, "You are the best mom. No one else has a mom like you!" Talk about making me feel good. I asked her why I was the best mom and she replies, "Because you let me have candy all the time." Not quite true but I'll take it. She then said, "Because you always like me no matter what." Why can't they be like this everyday? Life would be that much sweeter!

Ha ha! Seems my discussion about "unconditional love" with Soph the other week paid off! Great to see you are getting the kudos you deserve from Sophie. You are so patient with them and it seems like you really know how to cope as well. I can't imagine quelling some of those situations but you always seem to! Nice job "mommio";P
That is SO sweet of Sophie. Take it and run with it..Those are the moments you want to savor, ya know. Too cute! :) But, watch that candy intake-just kidding!
