The boys

The boys on the couch. Cute eh?
Uncle B came over to play Wii with daddy. J had a good time watching.

My little man likes to jump

J is feeling better today. It turns out he was cutting the other top tooth yesterday. He`s been very happy today, pretty much back to normal I`d say…

He loves to bang things, and to jump. This movie is a perfect example…keep watching to the end to see what J`s answer to daddy`s question is.

The little J man

The little J man had us worried again. He has a cold, and just sounds wheezy. We took him to the Doctor, she was concerned, and sent us to see a pediatrician at the hostpital. We had to wait for him in Emerg. The poor boy was so tired, he had slept very poorly since 3am, and wasn’t interested in eating. He was not happy with the blood tests, urine test and chest xray. Still nothing really resulted from those tests. Still, the pediatrician wanted to keep him overnight. We came home the next day with puffers for him. We’ll be seing the pediatrician for follow upin about a month.

A Breakthrough today

Ok, this is a really bad one. We had a breakthrough today! Actually Oma discovered it. J’s top tooth broke through!! Hahaha. I know. HILL-AR-IOUS. Daddy had checked last night and nothing was there. I noticed at lunch that a few times when he bit down he cried, so I think that’s when it actually came through. In a way I’m so sad, I love that 2 tooth grin! Anyways. R is also due to loose more teeth any day, she has some really wiggly ones.

Bribery….

Yes, I admit I bribe R sometimes.. Today I had to take 2 tired children to the grocery store. The only way I could convince R to come was to off to buy her some sushi for lunch. Isn’t she cute with her chopsticks?

It was the best of times, and it was the worst of times

Ah. The good news and the bad news. Let`s start with the good news. We are all back from Mexico, and fairly healthy. It was H-O-T. That`s the summary. Anyways. Safe travels, and good times. R started a camp today, put on by the local swim club. She was a little nervous, but the good news was she came out with a huge smile, and “Mummy, I had a great time!!” That was wonderful to hear. I made her have a nap, with the hour time change and late bed time yesterday (plus an 8:30 start time!) and while getting her to quiet down was NASTY, when she woke she was sin such a good mood, and we had a lovely cuddle session. Also, this evening I so very much enjoyed feeding a baby J his bottle, rocking him gently. He smelled so good, fresh from a bath, smelling like Aveeno…mmm yummy. He was trying to fight sleep, so I got to watch his eyes drift close, then open, then cross slowly as they drifted shut again. Good times… Grandpa also came over for supper. I actually managed to get to the local market and cook a full dinner! The first corn on the cob of the season! J enjoyed gnawing on the cob.

And the bad you ask? Well, today was the first day that daddy started back to work after his parental leave…yes, he’s been home with us since the little J-man joined our family. It was sad. We have had such good times together, and just lovely being together as a family…It was sad to see it come to an end, but I realize that we were so very privileged to be able to take that time together…

I will try to post pictures from Mexico soon.
