Mommy's Shopping Buddy

...somebody got new (big boy) shorts! And to celebrate, we do a little dance...

(on another note - it is getting increasingly difficult to get full-face, smiling pictures that are clear. Oh the joys of a quickly moving child;) )

Favorite Pastime

R's favorite thing to do as of late is to put one of his swaddling blankets over his head, give a deep giggle and walk around the house with his arms out (thank goodness for this last part or he would be more black and blue than he already is!). 

It is honestly the funniest thing to watch as, when the blanket-over-the-head game was tested by me/others, it was agreed upon that he cannot see anything. He has done an amazingly great job of not bumping into things and seems to have a sixth sense about where all the furniture/walls/windows are in our house.

Morning Weigh-In

I'm happy to report that we now have THREE milk drinkers in the Sandwich household. This has, along with a suggested "carb load", contributed to the jump back into the 50-75% weight category. Oh to be long and lean. 

And honestly, I'm impressed I even got these two photos. I will have to work on being both faster and stealthier with regards to picture-taking. The child knows his electronics and doesn't take kindly to being given a non-battery operated replacement.

Another recent discovery is that R's favorite shape is a heart and he will both point any/all hearts out to you and then immediately point to his chest to show you where his heart is. I LOVE it every time this happens (and you would be surprised how many hearts one can find during the course of a day).

It was awfully quiet...

Thankfully he was sitting on the chair, rather than the usual "look how fast I can move my feet when I'm dancing so close to the edge". 

On another note, you will notice that those are his "Spring/Fall transitional PJs"...warmish nights seem like such a distant memory when you've had the bipolar weather we've had the past week. I guess it falls along the lines of "don't put the boots away until June because you know that will just jinx everything".

Oh boy, I'm all about the "air quotes" today...T-minus nine days until we learn whether bump #2 is a boy or a girl. So exciting!! :)

Spring walk around the house

Hmm...maybe I will make a rock collection...

On second thought, maybe not - we all know how well that worked for mommy.

J.Crew, eat your heart out.

That was the best I could do, re: face shot

And yes, that is my scarf around his neck. Think: compromise with a 16mo old. I'm just lucky he had pants on.

Just a few new/old-ish ones
