Breakfast Buddies

 I guess one of the good things about Spring Break is that we had plenty of time to hang out in the morning.  Emily usually gets a granola bar in the van on her drive to day care when we're in school, but for the past week, one might say she's been enjoying a breakfast buffet every day.  First, it's a bowl of cereal, then a waffle with peanut butter AND jelly.  Then she sometimes throws in a granola bar or yogurt.  She's usually pretty good about eating most of it, so I can't complain.
One morning, she said "Mommy, go get the camera and take our picture.  Say 'cheese' Jay!"  I love that her language is coming along so quickly, and it feels like she talks "more adult" every day.  Her vocabulary was already pretty good, but now she makes longer and more complex sentences and it's a lot easier to figure out what she wants.  I think it helps make all of us less frustrated.
So Emmy said "Say cheese Jay!  Why you not saying cheese Jay?"  Then a few minutes later Jason grabbed an envelope off the table and waved it around.  Emily screeched "No Jay, we don't play with the mail!"  It's a good look at what my summer is going to look like.
