On My Own

He LAUGHED!!!!

Oh my goodness, it was so unexpected! This morning I had Port propped up on my legs facing me and I poked him gently on the shoulders and said "gobble, gobble!" and he laughed! It was the cutest thing I think I've ever heard! (aside from Kiddo's first laugh of course ;) ) I got him to do it a couple of times, but haven't been successful since this morning.

We had an interesting weekend. Sunday night Hubby went camping a few hours away and so it was just me and the boys for the evening. I was actually surprised at how well it went. I decided not to do baths because I just couldn't figure out how to do it. Dinner was a lovely affair - I asked Kiddo what he wanted (told him he could have anything - I honestly thought he'd choose pizza) and he said this:

By request, avocado, bananas, raisins, string cheese, apples and mashed potatoes. lol! He asked for mushrooms too, but he's never actually had them and when I pulled them out of the fridge he decided against it. I sauteed them for me instead, fixed a quick frozen shrimp pasta meal I had and we enjoyed a yummy dinner together.

I managed to get Port down for the night at 10 and then Kiddo shortly thereafter. Port slept until 6:30!!! That's 8 1/2 hours folks! I couldn't believe it! Now before everyone gets all mad at me and stuff - he's only done that the one time. Most nights it's about 5 hours. I'll take it though. :)

Anyway, it was a nice evening and then a pretty normal weekday on Monday. It didn't feel like much of a holiday to me, but oh well. At least Hubby got a nice day out of it.

So tell me, what the heck is this??!? AH HA HA HA HA!!! My poor child has a tail!! That last little tuft of hair refuses to fall out! He cracks me up.

Here is Kiddo "kickin' it old school" while playing video games. ;)

He looks just like my dad in that picture (in the face, not the clothes!).

And now for my new favorite photograph...

Love it!
Until,
