Ow ow ow-ow-ow!

. . . is the sound macaroni and cheese makes as it is being squished in Billy’s fingers! (At least that is the sound effect Billy made for them.)

Aunt Wendi came to visit this week.  The boys have adored having her and her skills here — her story reading skills, her train track building skills, her hugs when they get disciplined . . .  Let me correct myself, RICKY has adored having her here.  RUSTY has enjoyed taking naps with her.  BILLY has finally stopped ignoring her, but is still slow to do more than smile in her direction!

Yesterday morning, Billy caught a glimpse of Wendi heading into the shower while he was still in his crib.  He hadn’t accepted Aunt Wendi’s presense yet and was a little confused.  He started calling, “Sizzy, Sizzy, Sizzy.”  I had to explain over and over that it was not Aunt Suzy, but Aunt Wendi.  When she came out of the bathroom and he got a good look at her, I think he finally believed me!  (Hey, Aunt Suzy, I think you need to visit more often!)
