Gornstein Girl Wrestling, Music and Swimming

It was quite a busy Thursday! Mommy didn't take Clara and Emma for a walk this morning. Clara and Emma both kept pointing at the tunnel, so it made an appearance today. Mommy thought it was very funny. Mommy would look through the tunnel and play peek a boo with Clara and Emma. Both Clara and Emma took turns pushing the tunnel on the outside too. After the tunnel, the ladies thought it was time for wrestlemania, as Emma pounced on Clara and the two of them just kept giggling. After a nap, Cheri arrived to change them and give them lunch while Mommy ran some errands. Clara and Emma attended music today and enjoyed it. Emma shrieked with joy, again throughout the class. She loved the maracas and the tent and was unsure about the fish- she seems to like the stuffed fish when it comes out but gets upset when it gives her a kiss. Clara sat in the middle of the circle and right near the guitar. She loved the reading of Brown Bear and bubbles. After music, Clara and Emma had a nap before Mommy and Cheri took them to the pool in Greenburgh to meet up with Caroline and Eli. It was quite a pool- with lots of shade and a playground in the middle of the pool. Clara and Emma love to swim and seem fearless of the water- especially as they want to crawl off even though it is too deep for them. They enjoyed a quick dinner and a bath before bed. Clara refused to be fed by Cheri or Mommy but instead preferred to sit next to Mommy and feed herself her bottle. Since she is on a faster nipple, she always finishes about 5 minutes before Emma. Tonight, she thought it would be nice to kiss Emma before reading her books and standing up by the chair.
