4 Months and 4 Days

Has it really only been 4 months since these girls came home? We have come so far. They have grown so much. Mama has had so little sleep. I wonder where we will be when we reach one year home. They have gone through so many adjustments since they came home. They have a ways to go, but their progress is amazing.
The changes aren't ending though as we are in the process of deciding on/qualifying for preschool for Leeza. Then we will be working a few months later on preschool for Sasha. I will know by March 16th if Leeza gets into the prescool that I want her to go to. It has special programs to help her learn english. If she gets in, she will go there for 2 hours a day. They will pick her up at daycare and return her to day care.
They got the baskets when they first came home, but I have had them put away for a while. Leeza is too big to sit in it, but shesure did try. Sasha's little legs still fit just fine. The rest of her body didn't, but she still had fun. She is so cute!!It is time like these that I realize how little they still are. They seem so big when they are jumping on you.They like their table and are using it for snack time as well as coloring and reading. This picture took some setting up to do. I wanted to get a good picture of their Big/ Little sister t shirts. They probably won't wear anything like these in another year. Sasha is already a little fashion diva and has to have just the right shade of pink pants on to match her top. Leeza is much more laid back and her only wish is for pockets on all of her clothes.

Updates for the week:
I Got It. This is the girls new favorite sentence. They both say this repeatedly. They want to open the door by themselves, dress themselves, bring something to the table etc. They scream out I got it to call dibs on who gets to do it.
They are doing fairly good at picking up. Sasha is still easily distracted, but the room gets relatively picked up in about 10 minutes.
They help me set the table now by carrying things from the refrig or counter to the table.
Sasha's is using many 3 or 4 word sentences now. Leeza is using a few, but she is starting to try to do more. I think Sasha knows her colors as we were reading a book and she could tell me what color about half of the items were. She also know the number 3. For some reason, if you show her 1 or 2 of an item, she doesn't know what it is, but show her 3 and she knows there are 3! Leeza seems to know purple and pink. Considering most of her clothes are purple or pink, I guess I am not surprised.
I got some Curious George the monkey DVDs. THe girls love them. Sasha goes crazy when the theme song plays. They run from one side of the room to the other and then they drop down and pretend to be dogs. I am not sure why they act like dogs for a monkey video, but they seem to have a great time doing it. I however am getting sick of the DVDs as they want to watch them constantly. I guess they are better than Barney so I am not going to complain.
