Adorable

It has been a while since we have posted recent pictures of the girls.  Today they cooperated for just a few minutes for me to get a couple of shots.  This is the only one where neither of them is blurry nor has a goofy expression.

In my eyes, they have grownup a lot recently.  The things they know amazes me.  Bentley can say one two word sentences.  She stands up on the piano bench, by the window, and says “Ba-bye Daddy”.  I’m not sure that is what she actually means, however, because her pronunciation of Daddy, doggy, and Bentley all sound the same.  She is working hard to say more words, but like the other example several of them sound the same and I can’t always tell what she means.  Bria is as talkative as always, but is always wanting to know about animals, numbers, time, and anything else that may cross her mind.  She started figuring out some addition all on her own earlier today.  The days of the week are always something is she is asking about too.  Bria knows that certain things happen on certain days, and is always figuring out what day it is based on what happened yesterday or what will happen tomorrow.

I’m sure it is not unusual for little sisters to follow around their big sister and to copy everything they do.  Bentley is no exception.  Bria has never liked to play by herself too much, so I I could never just send her to her play room in the basement to play.  Now that Bentley can go up and down extremely well and stays out of most things that she shouldn’t be into, Bria will ask Bentley to go down and play.  They can spend quite a bit of time together down there. That has made it at least a little bit easier for me to get things done around the house.  Bria does still appreciate it if an adult is down there with them.

It sure is fun watching them change and build a friendship with one another.
