Brownies :(

Brownies!!  I just want to bake 1 pan of brownies!!  Is it too much to ask for?  We woke up yesterday to no power and it didn't return until 830am this morning.  Brutal cuts this week, a minimum of 16 hours a day.  Amazing what we can adapt to though, quiet days and long dark evenings are just a way of life now.  As long as it comes on often enough to charge the computers and phones it is hardly a problem... except for the brownie cravings that come periodically!!!  Oh, and it would be nice to have some warm water for a shower every now and again.

 I was hoping for early potty training but Theo couldn't be less interested.  He did get a terrible case of diaper rash this week though so we did as much diaper free time as possible.  Poor cat is still Theo's best friend.


 
We are also working on building new relationships.  No worries because as you can see Theo LOVES 'Maame' and half the time we have to peel Kaia off her lap for baths and meals.  Soon I will take a video of how excited Theo is when they get up in the morning.

Kaia and Pray are also the best of friends and can barely do anything without each other these days.  Pray is very athletic and it is rubbing off on her... He will run laps around the house and now she goes with him.  Initially she would be 1/2 a lap behind him after just one lap but now she can almost keep up for one or two.  She also spends a lot more time on her balance bike.

  1. I SAW A SOLAR OVEN BEING MADE ON THE INTERNET WITH CARDBOARD BOXES AND BLACK PAINT.
    SOLAR TECHNOLOGY WOULD BE GREAT THERE YOU'D THINK.
    POOR THEO WITH HIS DIAPER RASH,AT LEAST THE WEATHER ALLOWS HIM TO GO AROUND WITHOUT ONE.
    I HAVE TO ASK................WHY ARE KAIA AND PRAY IN BLUE WATER?THE SOAP OR BATH SALTS?
    SO KAIA IS RIDING THE BALANCE BIKE NOW............GOOD FOR YOU DEAR!!!!!

  2. Ha ha. The water isn't blue. They are actually in a small baby tub that is sitting inside of the proper tub... the baby tub is blue. May look into that solar oven. Don't know that it is that warm here though.
