Sunday Monday Tuesday!

So much for posting last night! Oh well, whatever, the kid's asleep, I'm waiting on something for work, I has time right now.

Update on Saturday: He grew .5-.75 inches! Woo Hoo!

Sunday: We woke up (early) and played downstairs on the new bed for awhile. Daddy worked late, so we headed over to Grandma's to keep the house quiet. We came in our Packer gear to cheer them on. We enjoyed their new xmas tree, and lots of snuggling time. We stayed up extra late waiting for Daddy to stop by, then he crashed for his nap.

Grandma took extra good care feeding us, making Peanut french toast, me eggs, and everyone turkey bacon. Peanut demolished it all eagerly. Plus I was extra lucky with a twin yolk egg scramble!

We discovered that Peanut, with his new height, was now trying to go up steps one foot alternating on the steps. Awesomesauce! At bathtime, I taught him to float/lay on his back in the tub for a fun new way to play in the bathtub. He thought it was fun to turn his head and slurp up bathwater. Sighs.

Monday: We donned our new Batman shirt and cape, and attacked the day! We had chickpea nuggets and mango picnic, then we headed out into the cold to Walgreens to take his passport picture. While we waited for them to be processed, we headed to Target and picked up some new Thomas toothpaste and Daddy's Xmas present. Hmmm... I really should have Peanut make a present for him too. Then he started experimenting jumping off the couch. But the real big thing on Monday was that it was  'New Bed Day.' Went to bed a bit late at 945, fell asleep around 11:00. Woke up at 330, and frequently was awake and playing between then and 600. Then up for the day at 800. Sighs. But about what I expected.

Napping awkwardly by the door

Tuesday: So, clearly we're all overtired. But we plan on going to city hall one way or another, so we head to Storytime. Yeah, that worked out horribly, we ran for the hills after two stories. Part of the problem was that he really wanted to go over to the train tracks across the way. But umm... no. Sorry. Cold and icy/snow. So instead we head in to finish up his passport. I alternate letting him run up and down the hallway, and ducking in with him to see if we're needed for signitures and DL handing overage. Then the boys had pizza and I had chicken, and we put him down for his first bed nap. Boi went to work, and I went up... once or twice to check on him. When I was sure he was asleep about an hour after putting him down, I peeked in and he fell asleep kneeling on the ground, his head in his hands on the bed. So I shoved the door past his feet (he was by the door) and put him back in the bed successfully.

When he woke up he was UBER cranky. I tried giving him a teething toy, and he went to town on it. So I dunno? He's likely just overtired, but that's something to watch out for. He ONLY wanted crackers with peanut butter spread on them. Picky guy. Not even yummy berries. He kept asking to go outside, to the point of insanity, so I took him over to grandma's for a short while, then headed over to daddy's work to have a 'lunch break' with him.

Went home for more... yeah... peanut butter and crackers. Though I convinced him to have a pouch too. We keep pouches on hand since they're pure vitamins when he's being cranky about healthy eating. I didn't want him going to bed late, so we just filled the sink with water and splashed our hands and face wet and clean. A few stories (including City Bus and The Little Train) in bed, and I tucked him in. Only went up once to resettle him and he was out in < 30 minutes. Woo hoo! So hopefully he sleeps better throughout the night now that everything isn't quite as new and exciting. I fully expect him to wake up once and maybe play a little, but hopefully not for 2.5 hours.

This >>> is just a picture of the curly hair he has on the back of his head. The center back of his head has always had different hair. Fuzzyier, lighter, curly. The rest of it is fairly thick but straight and not frizzy at all. So will they fight the rest of his life, or will straight give in to curls, or vice versa?

TUNE IN FOR THE NEXT 90 YEARS OF PEANUT BLOGGING, MWAA HAA HAA!!!

Oh, and here's Peanut jumping off the couch.
