Hump Day...

The kids continue to be themselves, and at times, it almost seems as if they're teaming up on us! Isaiah is still needy, for obvious reasons, and I think Makenna plays into that. She's been wanting to sit in one of the dining chairs at the table with us, like a big girl, so we've been watching her closely. Since then, we've started Isaiah in the high chair, Makenna's old high chair to be exact, and with that, she wanted to be in it as well. I brought back Makenna's other high chair from Grandma's house, and even though she looks as if she's too big for it, she still wants to sit in it (especially if Isaiah's in his chair).

Not only that, whenever Isaiah starts to fuss, Makenna will add to the chaos with her bit of fussiness. Of course she only gets that way if we let Isaiah get to us. If we're calm, then Makenna's tactics don't usually work. But if we're frazzled in any way, shape, or form by the baby, then Makenna knows to swoop in for the kill! The saying "there's strength in numbers" fits the bill nowadays, so mommy and I need to stay on our toes!

It's like Christmas for Makenna with her new blocks...
