Cookin'

Wm enjoyed his relaxing weekend. I did make him work on his cursive, practice his violin, and do Khan Academy - but he got plenty of down time too! Last night, he helped me make chicken and dumplings for dinner. He chopped up all the veggies (thank you, Mimi's garden for the delish green beans!), the chicken, and dropped in the dumplings. While I was setting the table, I said, "you're going to eat this, right?" Wm laughed and laughed like I had told a hilarious joke and went, "NO!" And he did not. So, instead, he made his own little plate that had plain chicken, carrots, blueberries, and crackers. He ate it all up, so I call it a win! And Steve and I enjoyed his chicken and dumplings! If Wm ever decides to eat actual food, he will, at least, know how to cook it!

We are sharing the family laptop now that Wm's is dead. I told him it's fine if he wants to keep it in his room since neither Steve nor I use it often. Wm said, "I'd rather keep it downstairs. I feel disconnected from the family when I'm in my room all the time." Yay!!! 

Also, here is Schroeder cutely napping in his little bed in the sun. I couldn't get any closer or I'd wake him up and if I zoomed in any more, it would've been super grainy. But, you get the gist. There is nothing like a cat snoozing in the sun to make me feel cozy!!
