Week 51 – Day 5

It is an “up all night” night again. Since we have not yet found a nurse that can cover Saturday nights, we had our usual Mon-Tues day nurse, Jenn, here today to use up the hours we have available. It is really nice to have Brendan cared for so that we can do errands, housework, and other little projects we are trying to finish. Bill can go visit his dad without worrying about the chaos at home. Jenn makes Brendan work hard so he is sound asleep now!

It was a busy day and I have tons of pics and videos! First, a video from yesterday that I forgot! Trevor loves the suction machine as much as Brendan does. This video starts with Trevor’s hilarious hands on hips pose. Then what makes me laugh is Brendan in the background so amused at watching Trevor!

Trevor knew he had a lot to do, so he started the day with a tall mug of coffee

The boys liked sharing a bath so much yesterday that we did the same thing today. They had a ton of bubbles this time and soaked for a long time!

There were feet everywhere and they played with all of them. It is easy to tell them apart. Carrot-soaked orange Trevor toes vs dusky blue Brendan feet.

Trevor’s obvious excitement in this picture is because it was Walmart day. It was his first real ride in his big boy carseat. Little did he know that Walmart today would be better than an amusement park. So much Halloween stuff to see!

We marveled at the teeny preemie Halloween outfits. Last Halloween, Trevor would have been swimming in this little outfit. Now it looks impossibly small!

Trevor was mesmerized by this spinning-eye inflatable. We had to pass by several times.

Trevor’s sheer amazement at this dancing and singing monster just makes me giggle. He wanted to dance to the song, but he could not overcome his awe! If it wasn’t so stupid expensive, I would have bought it. Instead, we had to play this video about 40 times for him tonight.

When we got home, we had a couple of visitors. Some of the boys’ most loyal blog readers were in town from Colorado and had to come squeeze them in person. Thanks very much Mike, Donna, and Denise for the birthday gift and the incentive for the big people to get out!

After all that chaos, Trevor is ready to kick back and watch some Yo Gabba Gabba! He actually fell asleep in his lunch again, he was so worn out from the morning excitement and skipping his nap.

To top off the busy day, the boys video chatted with their favorite girl cousins. Ashley was kind enough to sing several rounds of Purple People Eater and Kayla did the llama routine and made silly faces. It was good to see you girls!

Finally, Trevor has a little acting to share. He doesn’t deserve the Oscar like his brother, but his little “I am hungry and I am out of avocado” fit is pretty funny.
Listen carefully at the end, Gramma!
