It's been a rough couple of days for us. I know I said before that Mom thought I was going through a growth spurt, but now she REALLY thinks I am. The last few days I've been eating like a monster at least every two hours (even at night time) and I've been incredibly tired, but very unwilling to sleep. Luckily, I think the worst of it is over. I had a more normal night of sleep last night (and Mom showered me with kisses in the morning because she was able to get four-hour stretch of sleep!).
We've just been doing the usual things around here. I don't think Mom and I have left the house since Monday....except to take Baxter out. It's been rainy here anyway. There is something I do everyday, though, that I absolutely love....cooking with Mom!
Every once in a while when Mom makes dinner I'm taking a nap. But usually I'm wide awake and happy. Mom puts me in my bouncy seat on the counter and I just watch her cook dinner. I love it! Mom talks to me the whole time. I think she's trying to teach me what she is doing. I just smile and talk back to her. It's one of my most favorite times of the day.
P.S. Here I am in my bouncy seat about a month ago. See, I've grown!
Dear Austin,
ReplyDeleteI thought I told you in my last post to slow down on the growing! I know that you have no real control over it - but I want to relish this time while you are litte.
I have a new helper her name is Lek,it means little in Thai. She is wonderful and I am going to see a lot of Thailand because she is here helping me.
I have a bad cold right now, a really nasty cough and I am in bed taking the day off - I wish you were here to snuggle with. It is amazing how much I love you with each passing day. I pray for your mom and dad, I love them too. You are one lucky guy to have them as parents.
Get some sleep. Love, Nana
