Sibling Love

Sibling update:

Rowan has Camille sleeping over tonight. Oscar is so sad and crying in his bed.  He misses her, even with her upstairs in the attic.  Through his quiet sobs he says "Rowan gave me half of her BFF necklace...and I LOST IT!!!!  And if she gets another one...now she'll give it to her girlfriends"  - my heart broke seeing how sad he was and how much he loves her.

My question : why do they fight like a cat and dog right now!!!??

Wally is CHALLENGING!  3 is such a tough age around here.  I look at pictures of when he was two and just wish I could go back in time.  To be reminded of the sweet little boy that is now disguised as a screaming, demanding, and STUBBORN 3 year old.  He refused to open his mouth at the dentist.  He won't paint or do other activities at The teachers at ECFE.  It makes me sad.

But then he'll lean into my lap at lunchtime and say "You're my best friend." -all better.

Oscar is a smarty-pants - does math facts faster than me and is reading.  He has a really good friend named Rory, and is sports crazy.

Rowan has a new-found love for reading!  Walking into dance class, I had to lead the way because she had her head in a Judy Moody book.  She has a boy who has a crush on her and she likes him too.  Andrew Sailstad.  They were in preschool together as 3 year olds.  Andrew only lives a block down the street from the yellow house. It's so fun to hear the girls talk about who likes who, and what they play on the playground and who wants to kiss who.  KISS!? Oh my.  They girls broke into dance while the pizzas cooked.  They started to sing LMFAO's "Sexy an I know it".  Camille says, "do you know what sexy means?"  Rowan, "yeah, one of a kind"  Camille "yeah, and attractive!"  Yikes
