For both girls, the United States is a nebulous concept. They keep asking “a la Estados Unidos?” even though we’re in the Estados Unidos.
Monica loves Dora Dora stories. In Spanish.
Kelly’s time in chair must be carefully chosen. Otherwise, she just sits and laughs. Which is really cute, but not very effective.
Monica runs around the house yelling “Lapido, Lapido” to Kelly.
For the first time in our 4 years of living in our house, our dinning room is constantly getting used. Breakfast, lunch, dinner all take place there. Not only do we channel our inner Ward and June Cleaver, but it’s a highly effective way to make sure we all get time to eat. Kenzie likes to sit next to Kelly.
We go through a carton of eggs every 2 days.
At the end of the day, our house is actually pretty clean. I expected it to look like a bomb went off. The girls usually only pick 2 or 3 toys to play with and stick with them for the day.
Kelly thinks all the playsets in our neighboors’ yards are parks where we can play.
Our driveway is called a street.
what does Lapido mean?

Lapido is her speech impaired version of Rapido with means fast!
