Was awesome!!!!! Atticus and I (probably Mazie too) were thrilled to have Piper home all week. We were also overjoyed at the sunny, warm days we enjoyed. Piper and Atticus spent much of the break in their Jake and Emily alter egos playing "Jake and Emily get hurt" and " Jake and Emily save the day". I love watching them play together, they really are best friends which makes the challenge of having 2 so close together when they were little well worth it. Along with enjoying biking, hiking, and the park we got together with friends and even had a couple of grill outs and 1 fire in our in progress firepit, although, I unfortunately was out for that one, sick in bed with a nasty bug. Mazie continues to keep us alert, she still cannot get enough climbing. She has learned to pull out our dining room chairs to climb onto the table and now has started to talk. Mainly she says "want that" and points to everything, actually mainly food. Then, when she realizes she cannot have it (i.e dried noodles, uncooked lentils) she throws herself on the floor for a kicking tantrum (seems a little early for this, but whatever, she is number 3 guess she learned quick). She is a sweet little dancer though, and always will to bust a move with some spins. She is really keen on pointing out dogs, elmo and Piper. She loves to call for Piper. On a very sweet Mazie note, Atticus fell down the other day and was crying and Mazie brought over his beloved doggy. So sweet.
This week we are back to reality, Atticus has a sore throat, Piper is back in school and Chris is back to meetings and work. So sad, but summer is only 10 weeks away!!!!!!!
