It was an OK day today, Brendan had a lousy morning, an OK afternoon, and a really nice evening. Trevor was exceptionally good for me all day, although I did shower him with lots of attention. He absolutely cracks me up every day.

He is a very good eater, we haven’t found anything he doesn’t like yet. He seems very interested in self feeding too, and now he really likes to have his puffs with each meal. At least a couple of them actually make it in to his mouth each time.

Trevor presents the Captain Calamari Puppet Show for your entertainment:

Brendan needed all fresh tape on his face today. I hate to do it because taking off the old tape leaves his poor cheek red like a fire engine. His skin is so sensitive to it.

He was so happy to kick in the bath water that he was launching water 10ft across the living room. With a look of sheer concentration on his face, he would slam both heels down in perfect timing and launch a wave of water out of the tub. So we had to put a poncho on the tub!

As long as he could still see his feet, he was still loving the splashes.

He won’t go to sleep tonight, so he is sitting in his bucket swing right now trying to grab the purple rhino down. Each day, he gets more and more aware of his surroundings and his ability to manipulate things.

Tomorrow is our first no-nurse, no-gramma day with the boys. I am hoping we all get some good rest tonight, it is going to be a challenge!
