Quick Take

Well... this is embarrassing... neither Monica nor I really took pictures this past week.  This will end up being a pretty short post I guess.  I'll try to fill in with any extra stories I think of while I go.

Brooke has been loving helping in the kitchen.  On Monday she even made my lunch!  She made grilled cheese for everyone!

Tuesday I had a day work trip down to Colorado Springs.  I went down to test some parts and we got through all my stuff in like 3 hours and moved on to some other tests.  I know I often put in a picture from tests, but I honestly never even thought about it on this trip... The trip went well, and I'm sure I'll be down again sometime, so maybe I'll remember to take some pictures next time.

The girls always love to have an interesting way to head down the stairs.  This past week Winry slid all the way down.  It reminded me of when I was a kid.  When I'd go to Tyler Farrell's house we always used to sled down his stairs in sleeping bags.  They slid down real nice.  We'd grab futons and cushions and whatever padding we could find under the stairs to pile up at the bottom because the stair case ended at a T in a hallway, so it was straight down the stairs and into the wall.  We had SO much fun!  I'm not sure how his parents didn't mind us slamming into the wall off and on all day, but I'm glad they were chill about it because it was a TON of fun!  Anyway, I fought my first impulse and did NOT tell the girls about sledding down the stairs in a sleeping bag, as there was only one way that would lead... and I'm not as cool as the Farrell's parents quite yet...

I've been doing Pokemon Smile with the girls, and Brooke finished up catching all 151 pokemon this past week!  She got this cool hat to celebrate, and she got to decorate a picture of her in it (She added that Wigglytuff).  We've still continued to use it while brushing, though recatching pokemon doesn't seem to do anything.

Grayson has been a hungry chomp!  He's been loving eating solids.  He always joins us for dinner, sometimes having the same stuff as us, usually having his own thing.  He's adapting well to solids, and has definitely found things he likes a lot more than butternut squash.

Somehow one of these little chairs we have has found it's way onto the coffee table, and Jelly loves to sit on it.  I think it's really funny, because it's basically her size.  It just looks a little funny to me whenever she sits up there.

And with that, I wrap up this post.  It was a bit short, but still great (I hope)!  Have a great week ahead!
