A Rainy Day in April

Before April gets completely away from us, I wanted to share some video of the girls. In addition to many rainy days, there were a fair number of days that both girls were very cranky or sick. When I was ready to pull my hair out I would always try to crank the music and engage them in some sort of play. They have always responded well to music and in either case, it makes their fussing less noticeable. The video below was on one of those days.

There were many hours of riding and pushing the cars back and forth through the house last month. Surprisingly, Lila Grace can even push Savannah when they weren't dancing to the music. The cars were supposed to turn into an outside toy but we are having too much fun with them indoors. Adeline loves their music and is often found sitting by one clapping her hands to the tunes.

Finally, Lila Grace just took up jumping which surpasses Savannah's abilities at the same age. She is much more physically able and willing than I ever expected at this point and time. She is fearless and scarily strong. I can't believe she can get both feet off of the ground.
