All about the "big kids"

The girls.  Where do I even begin?

Adalyn continues to learn more words every day.  Her new favorite phrase is "go away."  Over the weekend, she was antagonizing my grandma's dog.  And when the dog would come near her she would then say "go away."  The only place we think she learned it from is the few times that our cat, Desi, comes near us when we're busy and we say "Desi, go away."  It's actually kinda scary what they pick up on!  Addi will mimick almost anything you say.  Or she'll at least attempt to! 

Alivia has become mom and dad's little helper.  She loves helping put all the toys away, she tries to help change Addi's diaper, and she always has to throw the diapers in the trash for us.  She's somewhat like a little puppy, and we love her for it!!  If we say jump, she jumps.  If we say run, she'll run.  If we ask her to show us where her feet, eyes, hands, knees, or whatever are, she'll show us.  This is completely opposite of Adalyn who won't do anything on demand.  Addi will only do things on her own terms...if you ask her to do something, you can almost guarantee that she won't......

Except!  There's always an exception, right?  The girls are now fascinated with giving each other high fives and kisses.  If we just simply say "high fives" or "kisses" they both seek each other out.  I have to try to catch it on video.  It's so adorable.  Watching them try to line up their hands or their lips is priceless.  It takes a little effort.  We're just waiting for the time that one of them smacks the other in the face while trying to give a high five!

I've been called out on my lack of posting belly pictures with this pregnancy (you know who you are!!).  So I figured I'd share the one that was taken yesterday at exactly 30 weeks.
