E8: Update

I know Mae and I haven't been writing much lately, but that's because Mommy was super busy for the whole month of June and she's the only one who knows the username and password for this blog. She wanted to tell us at first, so we could log in on our own, but decided against it because she doesn't want us posting when she's not around.

But now Mommy is home a lot. It's great. She's going to be around for a whole month. Yesterday was the first day of it. The morning was so much fun. She played with both of us a lot and we took a stroller ride to the grocery store.

One thing I don't like right now is everyone thinking we are boys, just because our hair is short. It's not our fault; we haven't had a lot of time to grow it out yet. We still wear pink and purple and yellows that are very pretty, but everyday people ask if we're boys. Mommy says it'll stop when we're older.

Mae started eating cereal, too this week, which is good, because it means she sleeps through the night better. Now she wakes up at midnight for only a few minutes, rather than 3 a.m. for a long time. I'm getting better sleep because of it. She still doesn't sleep enough, though. Like yesterday she was really tired and angry for two hours before she finally took at nap with Mommy on the couch while I laid down on the floor. If she'd taken a nap earlier in the afternoon with me like she was supposed to we would have gotten to go on an adventure with Mommy to clean out Grandma and Grandpa's van. Instead we just hung around the house, listening to her be angry.

I tried talking to her about it this morning in the crib before Mommy woke up, but she didn't want to listen. I tried again when we were out in the living room, but she said not to talk about it in front of Mommy. I don't know what to do about her.

This weekend is two important birthdays, our country and Great-Grandma's 80th. Mommy keeps telling us we're going to find out what sparklers are. They sound exciting, but she's already said we can't touch them, which makes me rather cross, but I still can't wait to find out what they are.

Today Mommy is going to show us how to blow bubbles. I'm very excited about this, because both Mommy and Daddy smiled when she mentioned them. But right now we're all still mellow. Daddy is sleeping before he begins his day of working from home and the dogs are still sleeping and Mommy is sitting on the couch next to me. I think Mae is starting to get hungry, but otherwise, this looks like it's going to be another very good day.
