SJ's latest cute saying:
When I went on my recent trip to Louisville, I brought back injera (Ethiopian bread from a restaurant there) and cooked up some lentil stew for dinner when I got home. Yesterday, Daddy went on a business trip, we told SJ he was going. Her response, "Yay! Daddy bring Opia food for SJ!" Apparantly anyone travelling must return with injera, you've been warned.
Must brag:
SJ, who did not speak a word of English 5 months ago, can now recognize some written letters and can sound out most letters. Her highly verbal brother has come in handy!
Update on whining about motherhood:
We have gotten our little guy back within decent limits of behavior. I've taken steps to be more firm, not allow negotiation and to spend lots more 1 on 1 time with B. He will always be a challenge to me, but it's definitely more fun being his mom when we're not fighting all day! B also started karate classes. In just 2 classes, I can already see an improvement in listening and maturity.

How super cute about bringing the food back--and Yay for SJ for learnig the language so quickly--I am sure this is a huge help to mommy!!! She sounds a lot like her big brother--super smart! Glad to read mommy is doing better too!
How was your trip? SJ is so cute and I love that she loves her Opia food. B is going to take over the world one day...he is that smart. Plus, he could continue wearing a cape and that suites him well. :)
I hope we can get together in November cuz I am already missin ya. October is crazy busy (for you and I both).
Glad to hear everything is coming together for the family. I love that SJ looks forward to food- so do my boys!
