So Far Behind

See, I knew this would happen. It's been 3 weeks since I've posted! I need to go back and check my emails, Facebook, and dig deep into the failing memory to get caught up. In the meantime, I wanted to make sure I put something out here. Let me at least try to get the past week down in history.

So, yesterday, JJ had one of the worst blowout diapers I've ever seen in his 10 months. His diapers have been smelling a little sour since Saturday (nice, right?), so I figured he had a little bug. He didn't poop at all on Monday, and he made up for it, let me tell you. He woke up and had his bottle, and then we got out of bed and I put him in his exersaucer so I could get his things together to go to his aunt's house for the day. Well, I came around the corner with an outfit to change him into, and I looked down, and it looked like pureed baby food on the bottom of the exersaucer. It took me a few seconds, and then it dawned on me what happened... Austin was standing there, and I looked at him and said "Do you see what happened here??" He has a weak stomach when it comes to these things, so he was immediately grossed out. Especially since JJ's feet were smearing, slipping and sliding in it.... blech. Needless to say, he got rinsed off and bathed, and so did the exersaucer.

When things settled and they left for the day, I went to make myself some coffee. We have a Keurig coffee maker, which uses K-cups. Austin had used the last one! Let me tell you, something took over my body, because I took the used one out of the machine and CHUCKED it against the wall. I called him in a fit, and bitched him out for using the last one. He called me back about 5-10 minutes later, and told me to come outside and wait in the driveway. Do you know he went to McDonald's and brought me back a coffee AND breakfast made just the way I like it? All was forgiven.

JJ is pulling himself up on everything now with ease, and is starting to let go with one hand to pick things up, reach out to grab things, etc. Before I know it, he'll be taking his first steps!

Oh, I heard him get mad for the first time last night. It was quite funny. He pulled himself up on the chair that his booster seat is strapped to. He loves to chew on the buckle, and it wasn't quite long enough to reach his mouth. So he was "yelling" at it! Oh my, does it really start this early?
