Grandmama rearranged the living room furniture. converted the end of the couch to a slid and climb on the couch to slid down the arm onto a padded area in the corner. Daddy says "who knew" because we can do this for an hour with little supervision. Mommy was a little upset because her plant had to give up the prime spot so we can have fun.
We are starting to sleep through the night. I have dreams that we run out of food, so I wake up crying. But Mommy and Grandmama calm me down and put me back to sleep. Mommy says I even talk in my sleep "apples" "cheese" "more please" "thank you". She says it's hard for her to let me sleep in the big bed because I'm always talking.
I have almost all my teeth now. I think I'm missing only two on each side. Ysabella has a lot of teeth still missing. Mommy is teaching us to brush our teeth. Some days we take up to 20 minutes, just walking around the living room brushing back and forth and up and down. It's a lot of fun. But Ysabella has the pretty lime green tooth brush and I have the dark blue one and sometimes I want the lime green one. But then I get in trouble.
Ysabella has
a lot of hair. Her head is covered in hair. It's all curly and soft. I don't have a lot of hair yet. We watch Mommy brush her hair in the morning and when she leaves for work, we grab the brush and brush our hair too. Sometimes Ysabella brushes my hair for me, but Grandmama takes the brush away saying "brush, not hit". We are learning how to feed ourselves. Grandmama gives us a lot of fruit. We also like cheese toast. Yesterday Grandmama gave us chicken legs (Mommy said to say drumettes). We like chicken legs. I carry mine all over the house. And when Ysabella got tired of carrying hers, I carried it too.
Grandmama took our pacifiers away on August 14. We haven't missed them. Mommy says if we weren't so crazy she'd move us off the bottle and into small cups. But we end up pouring water all over the furniture instead of in our mouths.
I know you see a lot of boxes in the background. Grandmama says for me to say we are not moving. We like boxes and play in them all the time. Grandmama even fixed them with duck tape so they last longer. It's the best day when Mommy brings home a new box. Daddy says a box, some plastic, and some paper are all we need to entertain ourselves. We even make our own confetti.
