After two weeks in Wisconsin, Mitchell is home! While the break was nice and well-timed with me starting a new job, the trip to Denver, nights spent painting the basement, etc....the house was just TOO quiet! He had a WONDERFUL time with my mom and David, my grandpa (who visited at the same time) and my sister and Mark (who are ENGAGED! More on that later!). We are slowly transitioning back to life as normal. :)
My Dad decided to give Mitchell's daily bath a boost and turn on the whirlpool jets. He absolutely loved it...and now that he knows where the knob is, I have a feeling he'll have many more whirlpool baths! Maybe that makes him twice as clean?
Oh, Maverick was in there too when Grampy turned on the jets. He wasn't so fond!
Yes, Mitchell now refers to my dad as Grampy. Or sometimes Grampy Bo-bo. Long story. :)
Now that he has spent so much time with my Mom, I can start to hear Mitchell saying things that I know he picked up from her. For example, she says "ya" instead of "you" a lot. Like, "Let me help ya." He has been saying it over and over for the past few days. We'll see how long it lasts :)
On the plus side, Mitchell seems more interested in Maverick than ever after being away from him for 2 weeks. He is constantly finding toys he thinks Maverick would like and brining them to him. I'm guessing it's a short-lived phase, but I'll take it!
Two out of three smiles isn't bad.

Jacob is out of town all week, we're looking forward to some Daddy time this weekend!
