Happy 19-months to ME!

Hi there! The latest and greatest in our lives is tending to the horses, Molly and Sugar, out at Grandpa and Grandma's house. We request daily to go visit them and though we haven't quite yet gotten to the point where we let them eat out of our hands, we are very content to drop hay, carrots, or apples into their stall.
Getting to the horses involves hiking down and up a rather large hill for our little legs but in addition to the fresh air it is a great energy burner!

Another favorite outdoor activity has been berry picking! We both love eating raspberries right from the bush however only one of us will eat them out of the container at home (and it is not you, Eleanor).

Our desire to play together has really increased this month which also means the disagreements have increased at times too. One of our favorite games to play with each other is "boo". Whether we jump up from behind something or pop out from around the corner, we elicit countless giggles from each other. "Share" is a word heard non-stop in our household (and so is "sorry"). Ironically we have a system worked out pretty well: Eleanor typically demands whatever Madelaine has even if it is the same or very similar to what she currently has, and to resolve the issue Madelaine typically has no problem switching and going on her merry way which leads to...all smiles!

Hugs, ME
