These past few months have been full of tiny adventures, and now that William is eating solid foods like a champ, we have started venturing out a lot more and going all sorts of places. We got to the zoo a lot and right now Jane your favorite is feeding the giraffes. William, I carry you on my back and you are just happy to look around and have a good view. We also like going to the nature store and trading in treasures to collect point to buy cool stuff later. We haven't purchased anything yet, but I have a feeling you will end up with some pretty sweet prizes with the amount of points you are accumulating. We have also started going on lots of hikes in the woods, and Jane you are getting so good at navigating the trails gaining confidence with steep hills, climbing rocks, and being the leader on the path. We have been playing lots of games (board games, car games, mind games, and silly games). Jane, your mind is exploding and it's so fun to see you problem solving and figuring things out. You are so curious about life and always have more questions and ask us to explain things. Lately we have been going through a hymn or worship song in the morning with very complicated words and you want me to explain each hard word and tell you what they are about. We often dance in the mornings to our "good morning" playlist, and my favorite is when we catch a glorious sunrise coming in through the breakfast nook windows. I have made a habit of closing my eyes, facing the sun with the music blaring, and dancing. I'm so excited to teach you to savor those small moments with God and let beauty and goodness fill your hearts
Music we are listening to: The specific playlists I have made for each time of the day. I have a feeling that when people remember me, one of the phrases that will come to mind is "I have playlist for that". I'm so excited about sharing so much music with you and building the soundtrack of your childhoods. Jane....you are getting way too smart at giving commands to Alexa, and one of these days a pallet of cookies is going to show up on our doorstep because you told Alexa to do it when we weren't looking. William is loving all of it, and dances to the beat along with music. He does this really funny pop with his chest and really seems to be a born dancer.
