There's more than one way to play at her kitchen.  This is Maisie, "in my highchaiw."

new friends

It's fun to watch these two start to interact and play together.  New friends in the making, brother + sister.  Now that Duke is interacting, Maisie is a lot more interested in him. Right now they like playing together in the pack-n-play...for a few minutes, that is! And Maisie likes to bring Duke's cup to him...and steal his cup to drink.  She likes to hand him food off his highchair tray...and eat his food off his highchair tray.  She likes to bring him toys to play with...and, you guessed it, steal toys from him.

One of my favorite things right now is that Maisie thinks Duke likes everything of hers. So if he touches her arm when she is holding her dolly, she says, "Duke wikes my dahwy. He wants my dahwy." But this has kind of turned into any and everything...so, just the other day it was, "Duke wikes my poopy diapuh. He wants my poopy diapuh."  Uh, no, Maisie, I don't think so. 

"silly face!"

Tucking into some ice cream at our favorite joint.  Those little toddler legs just crack us up!  The girl is wearing 3-6 month size shorts this summer.  For real.
