Day 112 / 84 To Go: Our Growing Girls...

Posted by: Cris

Our little girls are growing up. Everyday, the conversations they have with me and the thoughts they express and the types of things they play make me realize they are 3 going on 13. I think back at how quickly Alex & Lyndsey went from 3 to 13 and realize that day will be here before I know it. I've looked back at how Nova looked even right before Emilie left for deployment just 3.5 months ago and she looks like she's gone from baby to little girl.
The girls sit and play complex pretend scenarios with components that I could never believe they'd ever be able to comprehend when they were little bitty babies.
Worst of all, they are both pretty much on the border of doing away with their afternoon nap. This week has been a battle and only 1 day this week did both of them take a nap. Juneau could basically do away with her nap on all but the busiest days at this point probably...which makes me tired because often the only time I get to hit a project is while they are both sleeping :)
But, no matter how grown up she is becoming, Nova still lives for pretending she is a little princess...complete with her very own throne:
