two weeks = too long

at least once a day stella asks, "daddy in new york?"
sadly the answer is "no" (and has been for 8 days).   
jason is in africa for two weeks.  all evidence indicates that two weeks is 12 days too long.  my  "we're doing fine" is getting less convincing, the laundry is piling up, appointments are missed (i'm thankful for understanding friends), stella isn't sleeping well, and anton smothers the iPad with kisses during each facetime session.

here's what we've been up to while he's away....
playdate with neighbors

perfecting his "i want that toothbrush" scream

watching for "ucks" (trucks)

fish in the tiger enclosure at the bronx zoo

suffering from four teeth coming in

african drummers in the park


practicing sharing

AFRICA! I am so envious. Also, Stellas hair in pigtails is quite possibly the cutest thing I have ever seen in my entire life.

Your two weeks makes me tired, but very proud.. You're all three troopers.
