M.I.S.E.R.A.B.L.E

In a word, that describes Spence. His two front teeth are slowly making their way in. I mean slowly. They must be close, because he is an irritable little man. Lots of screaming and crying and generally being fussy. He also wants to be held all the time - by me. It's sweet, but (and I'm sure I'll regret saying this in the future), a bit tiring (to clarify, he wants to be held, but then uses his full strength to push against me or he bites or pinches my shoulders and arms...so, it's not cuddling with a sweet sweet baby).

Hoping that these teeth come in soon. The bottom teeth took a good two weeks (probably three) before Spence calmed back down. I really hope the next teeth aren't as tough. I'm assuming that the next teeth will be easier because other teeth will have paved the way. If this assumption turns out to be false, molars are going to be a blast!

Spencer Time

A few recent pictures of Spencer. He is growing like crazy and picking up all sorts of new skills like grabbing toys on the playmat, grabbing blankets or clothes and shoving them in his mouth, and his new favorite pastime, putting his feet in his mouth (with or without socks!).     Learning all the tricks on his first flight. We lucked out and got an extra seat for his carseat (ok, I lucked out, but still...)  Sleepy times with Grandma    Enjoying a new toy!   Such a big boy

Growing up

By
Jack and Spence "graduated" from their respective preschool programs in the last couple of weeks. While the road along the way wasn't always the smoothest, the outcome couldn't be better. At Spencer's 2s club event, the kids demonstrated all the new skills they had learned in the gym. Lots of forward rolls, big jumps on the trampoline, and amazing core strength. The kids then enjoyed their favorite book of the year: mean soup. Afterward each child received an award. Spencer followed Jack's footsteps on this part by refusing to go up to accept the award. Regardless, we were so proud of Spence. He loved having his independence, being involved in a class, making new friends, and just having fun. Next year Spence starts preschool at the Y. Jack's tender care graduation was last friday. The event was held in the Little Theater at the Y. Jack was so excited to be on the stage. The class sang several songs ending with what has to be the anthem of kids 3...
