Wyatt and his new growth chart. He's not actually trying to pose, he was in the middle of telling me, "All DONE." I get about 2 tries these days to get the shot, otherwise he starts rolling his eyes and trying to run off. Since when did he become a teenager?
Finally! We have REAL smiles. Poor little stinker slept all day today though, I think she got a bit of the cold that Wyatt had. He was only sick for about 2 days, and it didn't affect his sleep, so hopefully she'll follow suit. I think the chiropractor visits have been helping though, she does seem more settled as of late, and makes a lot of cooing sounds - just seems happier. Josh and I have always believed that the temperment of a baby had a lot to do with the temperment of the parents - if you're stressed out and anxious, your kid is going to feel it and react accordingly. If you relax and roll with the punches, your kid might be a little more chill. Obviously this is not always the case, but we're both wondering if that's why Paige was seeming so tense - because we both are. Between the lack of sleep, adjusting to 2 kids, Wyatt's ridiculous tantrums ("NO! I need to pee in the bath!"), Josh's fire department testing and issues at work...it's been a stressful 2 months and maybe she's feeling it. So our resolution is to start drinking*. Josh is a happy drunk and I fall asleep after 3 - I can't see any flaws in this logic. I plan to start tomorrow at 9am.*Disclaimer: Not a real resolution. Save your CFS calls for the parents of the kid who whipped his junk out at the playground and peed all over the playstructure. Seriously kid? You suck.
