Week Seventy-Six

After being spoiled by vacation, Zeeke is having trouble letting us go again. We're back to teary drop-offs at daycare and usually have to hand Zeeke directly to his teacher Kiki so that she can hold him as we leave. His sleep patterns have changed as well. He's waking up earlier and more often, sometimes coughing, sometimes just in tears.

On the positive side, Zeeke's class at daycare has been working on an alphabet project, making letters that look like animals (A for Alligator, D for Dinosaur, etc.) and Zeeke just loves them. While he's eating meals, he stares at the letters, smiling, pointing them out and making us tell him what they are over and over again.

Also, Zeeke spoke his first sentence (or maybe proto-sentence) this week. While they were playing together, Steve started meowing, then Zeeke smiled and said, "Dada a cat!"

Saturday, after music class, Steve & Zeeke went to visit Karen at the library, then came home for a visit with Grandmom and Pop Pop.

Sunday, we went to park and did some shopping, then had a play date with Leah, Jason & Zack.
