Monday...Monday...

It's Monday. Last week we went to dinner with Dad & Patty. We had a nice time visiting and eating, yum Famous Daves. Makenna was quite shy as she usually is when she meets someone she doesn't remember.

We had a nice weekend, taking it sloooow. Friday it started with Dosssssss and then we headed to campus for some much needed gelato. We decided to get some at The Creperie, Blackberry & Pineapple, realllly good. Saturday we ventured to the Cake Artist Studio for....cake. Three mini cakes, a turtle brownie (oh my word! they are dangerous), and some cookies later...we left with our spoils. We headed over to Homerdepot in search of a Sorbet Peonie, which they didn't have. Afterwards we went home b/c Makenna was feeling a little under the weather. Sunday I went to Prairie Gardens in search of the elusive peonie (they didn't have it either!). So instead I bought some annuals of many colors and wandered through the many greenhouses, I've still not been in all of them (and I was there for an hour). Twenty dollars later I left with a flat of plants.

Makenna is doing well and is growing everyday. We are currently learning animals and the sounds they make. She has cow and moo down (yeah we live in the midwest). We are working on duck and frog. After meals we do numbers and colors (they are on her place mat). She just likes to point at the numbers while you say (and not the right ones at that). We are still working on the potty, sometimes she asks to sit on it but the reoccurring theme seems to be a lack of "business", lol. We have two books we read while she is perched, the monkey book and the bathe one baby book.

Bundle up kids, it's cold out there!
