Milestones

Phoebe cut her own hair last night while I thought she was in bed.  :)  It's only a matter of time with things like this.  Now, if I can manage to keep the girls from cutting EACH OTHERS' hair, that would be great!  And, the haircut isn't as noticeable as her older sister's self-cut several months ago.  So, for that I'm grateful!

Lily has lost four teeth - all on the bottom.  She keeps wiggling the top ones, but those little stinkers are pretty stubborn.  She only has 7 more days of school and then she'll be a big 2nd grader!  She's a funny one - likes to start books on whatever chapter suits her fancy and then reads up a storm.

Lily's working on learning to ride a bike.  She rides with training wheels right now, but soon, I know it, she's going to be able to ride without them!  She is much more careful and cautious than her younger siblings.  But this is the summer for her to learn to do it!!!

Titus is learning new words here and there, but he likes to make up his own language/sound effects for things and talk in that.  For example, trucks are Rarrrs!  He's also decided that even though he can't talk much, he will learn his letters with Phoebe!  LOL - I just can't stop them!  I can ask him what sound a letter makes and if it's M, O, A, H, and sometimes S, he will tell me!  Hahahaha - such a funny boy!  He loves to play in the dirt or sand - one of the few things that can keep his attention longer than 1 minute.  Otherwise, he will walk around with a violin and sing his heart out!  But his first love (other than his dog - which nothing can top) is BALL!  Anyone who has ever even said hello to Titus knows he loves balls.  He can shoot a basket from three feet away.  He practices his batting stance and his catching stance.  He can't catch AT ALL, but he can throw with near perfect aim.  He is such a stinker and quite the smarty pants!

Love all three of them - they sure do all keep me on my toes!!!
