Munching and Taking Turns







This past week brought lots of activity from Claire and Chloe. The weather was quite cold so we didn't venture out much. They have lots of things to keep them busy. Here they are seen playing with their "old" activity saucer which is used only occasionally now, to keep them safe and out of trouble for a very short time when needed.


Below there are a couple of still shots of the girls munching at lunchtime as well as a little movie that I couldn't resist adding to the blog. Claire was acting a little shy with the camera, but they were enjoying their carrot wheels, a toddler finger food. The carrot wheels and apple wheels keep them occupied for an amazingly long time.






















As Christmas approaches, the almost one year old babies, are seeing their first sparkling lights, hearing Christmas music, hearing stories about Christmas and playing with their own nativity set that Mommy and Daddy got for them. What a neat way to learn about the birth of Jesus and what it means to us. Here you can see the pretty little tree that is in their home but safely out of their reach.
One of their books is a book called Silent Night. The book plays the song and has little lights that blink around Baby Jesus' head as the music plays. The next two movies show the dynamics of learning to take turns. They couldn't possibly get the concept yet, but in time they will.
