Meredith

Meredith and I are getting into our new groove without Whitney home with us, we sure do miss her!  Poor thing has been sick for a few weeks, just wont leave her alone really....we are both tired of the coughing!

She is loving riding her scooter, cutting with scissors and reading her books.  Since we decided not to have her go to preschool this year I have really been upping the amount of time I work with her academics.  She really is a smart cookie when she wants to work with me.... :)

She knows all of her letters and numbers to 10.  Does really well with counting one to one and is really getting the hang on rhyming....she had me worried there for a bit with the rhyming words!

She also spent a lot of time recently at my Grandpas house because my mom and I were having a garage sale.  She LOVED being with the dogs and taking them for walks.  Those doggies have never had so much attention.

Meredith also started gymnastics this fall.  We usually take classes at the blue ash ymca because it is a lot cheaper than a lot of the other places around here but they stopped offering classes there.  We ended up at the Lebanon (Countryside) YMCA.  It is a beautiful facility and her teacher Mrs. Erin is wonderful.  This is her first class where I sit on the bleachers behind a glass wall while she does her thing.  I was worried that it would not be a good thing for her but she has done great....baby steps:)

She's a goofy, cuddle loving little girl that I enjoy spending my days entertaining...or maybe she entertains me?!
