The Itsy-bitsy Spider...

I tell you what... me, Ryan AND especially Ben will be glad when all those toofies come in. There's a pattern; teething, growth spurt, teething, growth spurt, teething... get the picture? He just finished a happy-Benny growth spurt and everything was sunshine and lollipops and pig outs and lots of sleep, and now- the molars. Ech... poor kid has been miserable today. And to boot has a HORRRRRRRIIIIIIBBBBBBLLLLLEEEE rash on his bum and poor little boy balls. :( He snuggled a long time with me tonight and I sang "Go to Sleep My Baby" and lots of primary songs to him... he almost fell asleep. I love when he wants to snuggle with me, so I take full advantage of that! He's sleeping like a champ now.He says "nose" now-only with out the "se" on the end. He says don't, no-no, shhh, and I'm pretty sure it's "poop" he says now too. Twice when he's had a poopy diaper he's said something VERY similar to the word... so I think that's what it means! Leave it to my kid to learn to say poop! He's able to feed himself with a spoon or fork, so to get him to eat his veggies I give him a bowl of (baby food) veggies and let him go to town. We remove clothing, and he eats them, has fun and makes a mess- most importantly he gets what he needs! He's all green and goobery and cute here.Not much else happening. Oh, there's a ginormous spider out on the deck right now. Kind of cool and gross all at the same time.I'm really, really ready for Labor Day to be here. I am a little worn out with work. Our friend Jennifer got home from Mongolia today. Or she's supposed to anyway, haven't heard the latest. Ashley and I are hoping to go visit next week possibly. Love to you all.
