I know. We're late. But we were very busy this weekend so we have an excuse. Auntie Jen came to visit and had a wonderful time playing with us (although we all know she didn't come for the adults in the house.)

"See" now means we have to show Makenna our bowl or plate when we are finished eating. Does she think we're lying when we say we're all done? And it's quite disturbing to her when we are all done but there is still food on our plates. The two word phrases get more frequent every day. "Dada see" when she wants to find out where he is or "doggie cookie" when she thinks they need some attention. She completely amazed us this week when she found two of her sippy cups, brought them to me and said "two."

Benjy completed his first full week of school. It will be a very hard semester for all of us. He has a TON of work and is with Makenna 3 days a week by himself which doesn't allow for much study time. The house is a disaster and I think we're out of clean clothes. I'm sure we'll figure it out. Either that, or we'll go shopping a lot for new clothes. We interview a babysitter on Thursday to come one or two afternoons a week to watch Makenna so he can work.

That's about it here. Hope you all are doing well.
