Wuffa Time

Mr. Stannix had his first day of school yesterday. The little girl ordered up "Wuffas" for breakfast, so we had chocolate chip waffles topped with banana slices. A great back to school breakfast. It even got a thumbs up from Camilla!

Whenever we make waffles on a Saturday or Sunday morning I always send her to tell Daddy that breakfast is ready and she'll run off yelling, "Daddyyyy, Wuffas time. Waffus time Daddy!" It's the cutest darn thing. She has recently learned how to say "You're welcome" except it's "You're welpin'". Also, the cutest thing. After dinner last night she said to me, "Thanksa dinner Hun". So glad she appreciates my cooking. 

After breakfast, Daddy ran (literally) to catch the bus for his first day back. We weren't far behind with the babe in wrap and Camilla in the stroller. Mr. Hyrum had his 4 month shots today. He is over 16lbs, in the 50th percentile for weight, and in the 97th percentile for height (how did that even happen?!). Looks like we might have a tall, lean guy on our hands.

The kiddos hung out in the kitchen with me while I made dinner. Camilla was showing Hyrum how to be gentle and not hit her. Poor guy needs to learn some motor control before any of that information can sink in! They were both squealing and giggling. Music to my ears. I love watching them both play together!

After I put Hyrum to sleep, Camilla and I made chocolate chip cookies. I let her sit on the couch with a glass of milk and dip them while she finished up her show. She looked at me and said, "Look mum! My cookie's swimmin'!" I told her to save it and eat it quickly, so she did and proceeded to shove it into her mouth. When she finished dipping I asked her to drink her milk. She filled up her little mouth with milk and then made a fishy face at me. I sternly told her to please swallow it into her belly. Her eyes smiled at me. I told her again to swallow it IN to her belly. She sort of shrugged, then spat the milk ON to her belly. It's moments like that where laughter is most needed. What else could I do? I love the funny ways she interprets what I say sometimes.
