32 Weeks

We stayed home all day today in our pajamas. We didn't even go on a walk. You're sick for the first time and I wanted you to rest as much as possible today and I didn't want to risk exposing you to something else while your immune system was already hard at work. It makes me sad to see you feeling yucky. Your teeth situation isn't helping your mood either. We'll see how you feel tomorrow before calling Dr. J. Not sure I want you exposed to the germs at the doctor's office right now either.

Go Sooners!

And about those teeth... Is it possible that this first batch is already crooked? Those two bottoms are poking up and it looks to me like you'll definitely have an orthodontist in your
future.


Freddie, I'm sorry. I am *that* mama. I told someone, other than your father who hears it almost every time I change your diaper, how cute your poops were. I just couldn't help myself. It may have something to do with the fact that I am so very excited that your system has completely adjusted to solid foods and we are back to making diaper washing easier.


You have been running your fingers along the velcro tabs of your diapers for a while. You'll wiggle those little fingers a it around the edges of the tabs to get that nice velcro crackle sound. Yesterday you gave it a yank and opened your diaper. My eyes got as big as saucers and I quickly tightened it back up. You yanked it again and giggled as I giggled. Oh no. I am in for it.


You squinch up your nose and smile now. I love, love, love seeing that.


What is really funny is when you hear the front door open about 5.30 each evening and you stop whatever you're doing and just watch and wait for your Daddy to walk into the living room. You immediately break out into laughter and start bouncing up and down. I know it turns him to mush, Mr. Spaghetti.

Can you see my teeth? Click to enlarge.
We're working on a better picture still.

You like to stand up and hold on to the ottoman and "work" with your toys. You are getting to the point where you will let go of it and use both your hands to play with things on top and sometimes you will even let go and pivot around to hold on to something else.


It won't be long before we'll hear pitter patter through the house and I know you'll be squealing and scrunching up that nose and leaving us in the dust.
