- grunt laughing when tickled under her neck, then instantly getting the hiccups
- craning her neck at an almost-180-degree turn to see the T.V. if she's on your lap facing you
- doing baby crunches if she's in a semi-reclined position... the girl does NOT like to be unable to see what's going on
- waking up as happy as a clam and giving me the best smiles/coos when I sneak up on her
- stopping literally in the middle of nursing to unlatch and smile at me because we've made eye contact
Speaking of Daddy, he brought home the cutest surprises two days ago. Take a look at these crayon smocks... a friend of one of his agents makes them, and he even picked out the fabric for each of them (ballerinas for her, cars for him). Best surprises ever!
We got home from preschool today, and Emerson immediately found hers hanging on the chalk/marker easel, put it on, dramatically walked to the couch, and proceeded to take her little notepad out of the pocket and begin drawing. All while cutting condescending glances at me out of the corner of her eye. No idea what all of that meant, but it was hilarious nonetheless.
Jax's new pastime? Conversing in full sentences and carrying on normal adult conversations. It's funny how when you live with a little person every day, you don't notice the progression, but being away from him for a week opened our eyes. Ah, the boy loves questions. He likes to fill any quiet time with them, especially when we are in the car. The car used to be somewhat of an escape from home when I needed to just 'get away,' but now that he's completely verbal, it can best be described as a torture wagon. The boy literally doesn't stop talking. "Mommy, where are we going?" "Mommy, what are we haffing for lunch?" "Mommy, Baby Hane's so cuuuuuute!" "Mommy, Sissy's so sil-wee." "Mommy, preschool's so fun with Miss Ah-ma & Miss Yessie." Jeesh, after a while my eyes glaze over. Also, his 2nd set of molars are finishing coming in, and that's made him more whiny than usual. Yea for me!
