Any day that starts with ham face should be a good day.
“Watch what happens when I pull the alligator by the tail..”
“Rats! He got away!”
Trevor brought home a new ball from the grocery store today and Brendan was excited.
Trevor had a busy morning and took a good nap but he woke up a bit cranky!
“I am just going to pout over here and play with my truck”
There, all better.
I took Trevor outside before dinner and walked him around to get the crabby out. He walked all by himself all the way to the stop sign on the corner and back to the house. Then he was hungry!!
After dinner, he had his very first haircut. It isn’t like there was any real big cutting to do. He just had these strange super long wispy patches of baby hairs here and there that needed trimming.
“Just a LITTLE off the top, please!”
All done, he sat still and did a great job letting me mess with his head. I just had to give him the water squirt bottle.
Brendan thinks that watching Yo Gabba Gabba means you also need to eat Yo Gabba Gabba.
Today was sort and clean the toys day again. Everything came out of all the toyboxes and bins and jugs and the dog hair, milk spills and other miscellaneous stickiness was cleaned up. I boxed up a bunch of toys to put away so that they will be “new” again later. We made sure everything had its pieces and put it all away. The boys were very “helpful”.
I made Brendan work on his kneeling. He rewarded me by climbing up to the rail of his crib and kneeling all by himself tonight. We are going to have to lower his mattress very soon!
Soon Brendan will be chasing Trevor around! He better enjoy his alone time while it lasts.
After a bit of a rocky start this morning, Brendan had a great day. He seems to be feeling a lot better. He is so silly in fact that he is still awake an hour and a half past bedtime, laughing and sitting up and jumping in bed and tormenting his Daddy.
I put him in his high chair for lunch with Trevor. I put a big pile of puffs on both trays and Brendan flung most of his on the floor. Then he ATE one! He put it in his mouth himself and kept it there until it dissolved.
He was much happier eating the jar though.
“What’s in these things anyway?”
He also ate several bites of green beans, reluctantly.
Trevor is practicing his teenager pose
He has to beat Daddy’s high score
The moment I finally got both babies asleep for their naps, the skies opened and we got this hail storm with huge crashes of thunder. They made me jump, but the boys slept right through it!
There was pea sized hail hammering the roof and collecting on the patio.
This is what they were missing
Wow! Just as I typed that, there was a flash of lightning and loud crash of thunder again. It looks like another round of the storm is about to start now!
Brendan had to go to Daddy boot camp this afternoon
Trevor helped me cook dinner again. Tonight I gave him a little ball of sticky pizza dough.
“What am I supposed to do with this?”
“Remove. Immediately.”
Because he didn’t like the dough (Brendan didn’t either, big surprise!), I filled his high chair tray with water for him to play in until his dinner was ready. I think maybe Trevor needs some playmates of the non-furry variety! Getting in to the dog food must have affected him! Silly baby!
Speaking of silly, Brendan is the silliest baby I have ever met. I was showing him videos of babies laughing and talking. He was laughing so hard he almost had a tear roll out. It is hard to tell in the video just how hard he is laughing, he is shaking!
I showed him the video of himself jumping in bed and talking and he was copying himself. It was too cute! I hope with all of the crazy we had today that the boys will sleep well!
