Family Update

Gumba-ba has changed so much in the last month. He won't stay on his back, gets up on his knees and rocks, and is becoming quite the sitter! He just turned five months old, I think we have a gifted child on our hands! This past week he's even started to balance on one hand and reach for objects with the other, it won't be long until he crawls. Unfortunately, big brother's world will shrink when he does.

Gumba is doing well. Is completely adjusted to being in a big boy bed. Thankfully he stays in his room until we get him up from bedtime or naptime. He usually opens his door when he wakes (still 5am or so) but plays until we're up. Also, he'll stay in time out...don't ask me how we got so lucky. Must be all the Super Nanny I watched really did pay off.

Right now we're having really terrible weather. We've had freezing rain since Sunday night. The roads are REALLY bad. Luckily most people have the sense to stay home and no one has gotten hurt yet. I decided to not go to work, so by the end of it, I'll have had nine days off! Who can complain about that?!?! Happy Thanksgiving!

My Eldest Thinks He's Smarter Then Me

Right now I'm sitting outside my son's door "encouraging" him to take his afternoon (only) nap. I guess he doesn't think he needs one...except for I know he does, and more importantly, I need him to take one. So, here we are, a battle of wills raging in our house.
