Well I’d say the honeymoon with Jack’s cast–if there ever was one–is over. This morning he started waking up around 4:30 crying like there was no tomorrow. I have a theory it’s because he generally moves around a lot and doesn’t like being restrained by the cast. What is an annoyance while he’s fully awake [...]
Not exactly the bon bons and soaps I was hoping for when I signed up for this mothering gig: Jack left me two little bon bons in his crib this morn, and I used a lot of soap getting him and his bed clean.
I really hate to discourage my children when they try to help me clean up, no matter how sloppily they do it. But I really have to draw the line at Jack eating his own spit-up.
Last night at supper Max left his (used) napkin on the table. After a minute or two Jack picked it up and held it loosely to his nose and blew! He did this 3 or 4 more times…it was so funny. That little kid cracks me up (when he’s not making me pull my hair [...]
Can’t believe I missed the opportunity to describe the boys’ before-the-birth behavior the way cjane did:
“I felt The Chief kicking inside of me as if he controlling the gas, brake and clutch pedals to his imaginary in-utereo Porsche.”
Max says, “Jack, you and that hollerin’ need to be quiet!”
No infinity and begon!
Jack has started rocking his bouncy seat. He rocks his hips and gets those toys swinging!!! It makes such a racket I was worried the first time I heard him but didn’t see him. Silly boy!
I’ve been going through my calendar and saw some things I’m pretty sure I haven’t blogged.
Jack really smiled at me August 4th…he was 2 months old.
Sometime in late September Max started getting out of his bed after his nap/night and coming downstairs by himself. For almost 3 years I’ve been the one putting an end [...]
I’ve been trying to work on Jack lately…he mostly looks right. But this last week he’s had his left hand in his mouth several times.
Max has used ‘probably’ in a sentence about three times now…the last time he said something about ‘probably we can eat Daddy’s cake’…he’s really worried about that cake Ted got for [...]
Jack’s screaming his head off in spite of the fact that I just lovingly wrapped him up and put him in his bed.
Max says ‘I can’t believe it!’
I said ‘I can’t believe it either!’
Max said ‘I can’t believe it either, too!’
Last night we were playing hide and go seek with Max. Ted said ‘Where’s Max?’ [...]
