December 29, 2009

Three bonus pictures taken while I was out tonight:

Kate gets a treatment.

Suki watches tv while Grace positions one dog to ride another, twice.

What funny girls.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Suki really, really wants to be able to jump from this table like Grace can. David and I help her get more comfortable by letting her hold a single finger very low while she jumps and she practices jumping on her own into a beanbag chair. She truly -can- do it but she doesn't believe she can do it.


Today Grace climbed up and held her hand and they jumped off together -- they had a few truly simultaneous jumps and then these uneven attempts you see here.

She'll get there on her own someday.

Kate looks warily at the mask from her nebulized albuterol treatment.

I suspect my girls don't mind the treatment because it helps them breathe so much easier.

Suki takes her turn plus I finally got a shot of her adorable squint-and-point gesture she's perfected this month.


Cutting out shapes to make ornaments.




Kate loves to help her sisters.

Kate tries to glue, Suki threads some yarn through the hole at the top of the ornament, Grace continues snipping her shapes.



Then we made some fun masks.




We practiced saying words in Mandarin -- these girls love a flash card.

Then we colored a snowman and a snowy scene.

Kate used markers for a little while, then tried to draw on the walls with them and eat them.


Grace is getting better at connecting the dots all the time.

Sweet sisters.

Grace surprised me at how good she was at spotting the differences in these pictures. What a fun Kai Lan day.
