Shorts

Michael got new glasses.


PapPap came for a visit. We all enjoyed having him. He doesn't flinch about getting on the floor with the boys, playing in the dirt, dancing and hopping about for our nightly dance party, and has goofy voices and magic tricks aplenty.

Kindred and I were playing with Play-Doh. He was struggling with the lid of one of the containers. Finally he gave up and tossed it to me, saying, "Deal with this, Mom."


Elias has started nursing more frequently and sleeping less easily and eating more pick-ily. It's a mystery.

A few nights ago, it was 4:30am, and Kindred had been up for almost 2 hours. Just not sleepy. Elias opened his eyes and noticed we were across the room chatting and he wanted to join the party. He sat with us on Kindred's bed, and eventually Kindred suggested, "Lie next to me, Elias!" They both snuggled down into the pillow, giggling, sticking their bums up in the air, bouncing on the mattress. They were gleeful brothers in the darkness.

Thanks for the shorts. Michael looks very different. His Dad had ones just like that when he was in high school, funny isn't it? Love, Carol

yea, he totally looks like my grandfather circa 1972, but michael is totally capable of pulling that off.

Nice new specs, Michael! And I'm glad to hear that we're not the only family who sanctions a dance party right before bed... Kinda counter-intuitive, but it works for us! Do the boys ever share a bed? My friend with 4 boys, age 7 and under is a huge fan of the sibling bed arrangement. Perhaps Elias is about to spring forth with some new skill. It's said that kids often "regress" a bit before making a leap in another area.
