August 2015

1.  Charlotte drops her afternoon nap... The week Burk is born.

2.  We got a sandbox and love it.

3.  Watching "honey birds" drink from our feeder.

4.  "Zert " Jack's favorite meal course

5.  Charlotte loves looking at books and can entertain herself for an hour flipping pages and "reading" to her teddy.

6.  Jack's favorite toy is his kitty.  Charlotte's is her teddy w/her kitty a close second.

7.  We struggle with sharing.

8.  Eating "little cones" outside and saving $ from going to Braum's multiple times a week.

9.  Jack loving to give kisses to baby Burk... And holding baby too!

10.  When we ask Charlotte what she thinks of Burk, "I don't know."

11.  It took us until now to see how valuable a routine can be.  We are winning with our new nighttime routine that starts at 7:00.  Bath, brush teeth, PJs, drink, potty, read a book, and go to bed.  You have to do ALL the things.  That, plus no naps, equals instant sleep.

12.  Jack likes putting money in his "penny bank."

13. A random dark tabby cat shows up in our backyard.  She has so much tolerance for small children.  From letting them put water on her to picking her up and carrying her.  We have named her "Katarina Kitty Cat" (Daniel Tiger) and we are not feeding her.
