The babies are obsessed with Hello kitty. They got hello kitty sippy cups and say “ditty ditty” and point to her. They also wave from their high chairs at the cups sitting on the counter.

MJ went up to find a “boy” on the hall floor made out of a soccer jersey shorts, socks, toothbrushes for arms and a legs and a Lego storage box for a head. I’m beaming at Charlie’s cleverness.
