The scream

Two days ago several things to report. Cali always wakes up and asks for Mac. After we got up, Cali, Mac and I played on the bed. I had to carry Mac down the steps, so Cali was left to come down by herself. On the way down, I dropped Mac's "Butch" stuffed animal. I couldn't pick it up, so I left it on the steps and took Mac to the den. A couple minutes later, Cali arrived in the den and handed Mac's stuffed animal to him. She's always looking after him. I didn't even ask her to pick it up!

That same day, Cali was eating pizza at Costco. I was cutting it up into pieces and had left one of the pieces on the fork. Cali took the fork and shoveled the pizza to her mouth. We ate the rest of the meal with the fork.

One the way home, Mac fell asleep. I was so excited because it was Cali's naptime too and I thought, for once, they would be sleeping at the same time. As I was taking them out of the car, Cali looked at Mac and said "shhhh!" as she often does when he is asleep. She did this three or four times and then all of a sudden she let out the loudest scream ever. Of course this woke Mac up and he was awake the whole time Cali was napping...She thought it was the funniest thing, so after the second scream, I left her in the car all by herself while I went inside with Mac. When I came back out and opened the car door, she greeted me with a nice scream hello...She thinks she's so funny.

Mac has found his feet. It's fun to watch him play with them. He also can stand in the exersaucer now. He hates the little green monster toy on it. He tries to eat it and gets really mad. He always ends up crying.

Last night Cali ate a ton. She finished off a full tub of blueberries and still said "more, more."

Cali has been getting up around 5:30 which needs to stop. Between Mac getting up around 4 -5 times and Cali waking at 5:30am, I feel like a zombie most days.

We are going to Connie's house tonight for dinner with Lily, Connie, Lee, and Marilyn. It should be fun as long as we can keep Cali contained :). She's busy and into everything.

Another one of Cali's favorite foods: salmon!
