This has actually been a fairly quiet week. No sickness. No disasters. Doodles is–amazingly–sleeping through the night soundly, generally going to bed between 7 and 7:30 p.m. and waking up between 5:30 and 6:30 a.m. Of course, I still wake up many times just to go in and check on him to make sure he’s still breathing (we’re going away for a weekend and I’m worried that it’s going to disrupt his schedule). He’s taking two naps a day–in his crib–of one to two hours. He’s sitting fairly well unassisted, but we still have to pile pillows around him because toward the end of the day, he topples a lot. He’s easily distracted, which is a good thing, because when he starts to get riled up, we can just point him toward something else. He’s biting a lot, and with that second bottom tooth starting to emerge, it’s quite painful. Between that and the pinching, he’s become quite the deadly child. He’s also become quite the little babble monkey, saying “ba ba ba ba” and “ahgoo” all the time. He wakes up so nicely in the morning–on the monitor we hear, “ba ba ba, oooo, ba ba, ooo, na na na, ahgoo!” But things have been going quite smoothly. Of course, Adam’s a different story these days. He’s not sleeping through the night (between papers and spring training, there’s lots on his mind). He is sitting quite well unassisted (haven’t seen him tumble in a while) but he’s easily distracted, and that isn’t so much a plus for a B-student in his final days of classes. Luckily, Adam’s biting and pinching isn’t so bad, which is a relief because he already has all his teeth. Adam’s babbling has gotten a bit out of hand, especially when I’m trying to get work done (which he’s doing right now–he’s muttering some nonsense about the conference he’s going to tomorrow when he knows I’m trying to hurry to finish blogging). And there’s nothing nice about the way Adam wakes up. But he doesn’t spit up (much) and he’s mastered the bathroom (including putting the seat back down), so I guess I can’t complain too<\/i> much.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
