"Cookoo Me"


This video is a little old now, but Elise still loves to identify the Sesame Street characters on her diapers.  We can't get enough of hearing her version of "Cookie Monster."

Better late than never?

At the beginning of the week, Lydia preferred to be up in someone's arms when around the dogs.  By the end of the week, she was petting the dogs and giving them commands.

Katelyn was very excited to have found a monarch caterpillar.

We actually found two - but one stayed in NY as it had already formed its chrysalis when it was time for us to return home.  We brought the other one home with us to watch its transformation.
