A little imp has taken over!
Oct 19th
Well Nathan has decided that a nap is NOT on his itinerary for the day! He’s been running around like a crazy little field mouse, laughing for no reason and having a big ole time. Which reminds me somewhat of a mischevious little imp. Like there really IS a reason for this laughter… he’s about to get into something and boy, it’s going to be BIG. He already messed with the settings on our receiver (for our surround sound, DVR, and DVD player) and it took me a few minutes to figure out exactly what he did to render it SOUNDLESS. His toys are scattered around all over the place. I’ve stepped on one of those giant Lego’s already, and let me tell you, that shit HURTS.
And, Nathan is running around at full speed, intermittently covering me with his sweet hugs and kisses then running away with his head tilted back, and I can’t help but think it’s because he’s running so fast THAT HIS HEAD CAN’T KEEP UP WITH HIS BODY. Just a few minutes ago, I had him in my lap while I was on the computer, but he started bouncing so hard on me that I almost peed on myself. We were listening to this song by 10 Years (if you click on the link, give it a few seconds and it will play automatically), and he was started bouncing up and down like a jackhammer while trying to sing along. Which, admittedly, was freakin’ adorable to hear him attempt to sing along to something, even if my bladder was frantically protesting THE ENTIRE TIME.
I think I am the one who needs a nap! And I am sitting here wondering WHO THE HELL SNUCK SUGAR INTO HIS CHEERIOS? Because this kid is seriously hyper today.
Feeding Mama
Oct 16th
A couple days ago, I was eating some chocolate-covered chex mix. Nathan toddled over to me so that he could have some, too. I gave him a little bite, and then I held out my hand with some chex mix in my palm so he could feed himself more. And then he did the cutest thing… instead of feeding himself, Nathan fed me! He gingerly picked one piece at a time out of my palm and brought it to his mouth like he was going to eat it. But instead of eating it, he grinned and then put the food into my mouth. That was officially the first time my little boy fed me!
Enjoying the fall weather
Oct 12th
Since the weather has finally cooled down substantially, I wanted to get some more outdoor pictures of Nathan in one of his super cute outfits that he is on the cusp of outgrowing. It’s a size 18-month, and one of the last outfits of that size that he has that he can still fit in. He’ll be too big for it in a couple of weeks, so I wanted to get some pictures before I pack it away forever. (While shedding a tear or two… I sometimes get a bit sentimental when he outgrows his clothes.)
