Another few days have passed since I wrote you and it seems like I have a lot to tell you! These past few days have been so fun - you have learned how to clap and you think you are pretty cool. You clap and I say "YAY" and you laugh. You are also making new faces with your tongue. It is so cute - it is like you have rediscovered that it is there again. Too fun!!
Wednesday was pretty normal - home from Mary's, nap, eat, bath, play and ready for bed. Unfortunately, you did wake up at 4:00 am and wouldn't go back to sleep. You had a bottle then you were all squirmy, wormy in our bed.
Thursday - I was so annoyed with you baby but I had to laugh too. We went out to dinner because your daddy was craving Rojas. You sat with me and did so good eating beans and rice. Then, you started getting fussy & I figured you were full. Nope, you were not full - you just didn't want me to feed you anymore. You sat with your daddy & dug into the food on his plate - corns, beans and cheese. You are such a big boy that you need to do everything on your own. I think it is great you are so independent but it is much cleaner if you would let me do it :)
Friday - you went over Great Gramma's but I stayed over there with you & through off your routine. I did a call downstairs and as soon as I came up, you were fussy pants. We played for a bit and talked to Gramma then came home a took a nappy. We had a party with Daddy's side of the family and there was a little girl there that was about 3 weeks older than you. You were SO FUNNY. She crawled over to see you and you just screamed at her - in a happy way. You kept doing it over and over. You reached for her face and she reached for your face. You didn't even try to eat her - just smiled and screamed at her.
Saturday - we were all in sad shape buddy! We had a party to go to but we had to cancel. Your dad hurt his arm - he can barely move it. I felt like I had the flu - all of my muscles were just so fatigued. You were OK all day but at 11:00 pm, you woke up and would not go back to sleep. We gave you some Tylenol and Orajel and you felt better - until 3:00. At 3, another dose & still no sleep. I brought you downstairs to rock you - still no sleep. I gave you a bottle and put Sponge Bob on TV - still no sleep. I had you on the Love Sac while I was laying on the couch and I could hear you clapping. It was so cute!! Finally, you slept from 5-7:15. Man, buddy, I was EXHAUSTED. Daddy came down at 7:15 and I gave custody of you to him and I slept for 5 HOURS :) When I woke up, I couldn't believe that you didn't take a morning nap. You were up from 7:15 to 11! Right now, you are still taking a nap and I hope that we can get those darn teeth to come through. I hate it when you are miserable.
We have a big week this week buddy! We need to take your Halloween photos and then we are off to DENVER! It is our first trip by ourselves. We are going to see Auntie Kim and Auntie Val. Well, like I joked with Great Gramma - I am just Elijah's designated chaperone :) If you could fly on your own, I don't think I would be a required visitor ! haha.
