August 11: Just a quick update on some of Andrew’s sweet activities. In the last few days, he’s been saying, “I love you” much more than normal. When Bryan came home from work yesterday, he raced over to him, leapt into his arms, and said, “Oh Daddy, I LOVE you. I missed you!” And this morning, feeling full of happiness about our Saturday morning togetherness, he ran from me to Bryan, saying “I love you, Mommy.” “I love you, Daddy.” It’s music to our ears:)
This morning, Andrew and I got up early and made a loaf of banana bread together. Andrew dumped all the ingredients in, he helped stir, and he even pulled apart the egg shell (“It fell in, Mommy. Slimy.”). He also had fun tasting a lot of the batter (“I yike it, Mommy. Sugar. Yummy.”) We’ve baked together quite a bit, but I think he’s getting to a point where he really gets the process and enjoys knowing that we worked together to make our breakfast together.
Pictures of the last week are in the gallery.
