Growing Up and Fun Friday!

Ethan and Gracyn are really growing up.  Last night in the bath I told them not to wrestle and Gracyn said "Where is the sign that says no wrestling?"  Seriously??  Lol!  Last night they both put on their pajamas all by themselves.  Then, this morning while I was getting dressed they went down to the living room to play.  I came down a couple minutes later and found them making themselves and their little sister breakfast.  They had gotten bowls out of the dishwasher, the cereal out of the pantry, poured cereal in the bowls and were attempting to pry the refrigerator open to get the milk.  Finally, Gracyn had an accident today and needed to change her pants.  She took her wet pants off, took them to the laundry room, and went upstairs and got herself clean underwear, socks, and pants that actually went with her outfit.  They are definitely not babies anymore!

Today was a really good day!  We went to the aquarium with friends this morning and I got a membership so we can go all year.  Yay!  Ethan and Gracyn loved the new exhibit with the tunnel under the tank with the ladder to climb up and look in.  Avery was really good and happily rode in her stroller most of the time.  She did get to get out and look at some fish and climb around a little bit.

After lunch and naps we got to play outside.  It was another beautiful January day and the temperature was in the 50s.  We took the big tent out and played in it and told stories.  Also, Ethan and Gracyn rollerbladed while Avery explored.  I really enjoy getting to play with my kids!  While rollerblading all 3 spontaneously held hands and went around the driveway for awhile.  It was so sweet!  I am happy that they all play together so well (most of the time :-).
