one week left..

until tom is back! yay! i could really use a nap.

can't remember if i've mentioned it or not, but collin has decided that he likes the kids' little table better than his high chair. this week, it has almost been like pulling teeth trying to get that kid to sit down & eat. he tried to pull an "ivy" the other night. it had been a really busy day for us (dr. office, collin's school, post office, voting, grocery shopping, therapy, and playing at enrichment night). i had given him ample opportunities to eat after he got home from school. anyway, he didn't eat much. so, at bedtime after we sang songs & read a small board book or two, collin said "eat snack". i took him to the kitchen and then he just really wanted to play w/his toys in the living room. i put him back in his room, and the next morning, he had a HUGE breakfast! ivy always did this when she was little(still does sometimes), saying she was hungry--conveniently right at bedtime. most of the time, it was just so she could stay up later.

andrew's getting his 3rd molar. not so fun. he also tried to pull a fast one on me last night. i usually get him out of his crib in the morning, after he turns on his mobile music. well, a couple minutes after i put him down last night, he turned on his mobile music! boy..they learn young to manipulate! he went back down w/a stuffed animal and he didn't try turning on the music again until this morning. he has also learned how to climb to the top of the couch. great.
