I have made several posts about things that have gone on but I really havent let you know what all new things Will is doing. The little monster is into everything now. Just so you believe me: look to the left of the screen. He had pulled out the paper towels and was starting to eat the toilet paper. I do pay attention; I just had to get those bottles washed. Anyway, he finally broke two teeth through a few weeks ago. He really likes to use those. He chews on everything! I have to keep that paci in Will's mouth when we are at the grocery store other wise he chews on the handle, nasty! He has learned to sit up by himself from a sitting position, and once he learned that, there was no stopping him! Changing diapers is no exception either, apparently diapers are easy to be changed when you are sitting on your butt. Will is quite wrong on that. Now the new trick Will is working on so hard is standing up. He will get on his knees and even put one leg up but that is as far as he will get. He is now eating three meals a day; breakfast, he will get fruit and or oatmeal, lunch we do something simple just a veggie or I will grind up whatever I am eating, and then supper he will have a veggie and a fruit or also whatever I am having. His bed time is still 7 PM. Will gets pretty grouchy in the evenings if he is sleepy so he goes to bed pretty early. He has had a cold or something the last few weeks, waking up at 3 and coughing so much he wakes up every half an hour. The last few nights have been better and sleeping all through the night or at least only getting up once. Anyway, he is growing and learning so much every day. I still cant get the boy to say "Mama"!
Dada has been working a lot still... Yes, he is done with chopping but now he has to do all those jobs for friends who seem to think that Dennis doesnt have a family and so they take him from us at night... okay, little rant. We just miss him and want him around. Last week I had gotten his birthday present and guess what, he guessed it! So, I kinda figured, what's the point in waiting? So, he is now playing with his new meat slicer... and loves it! I'm glad too, this year I have actually found things that I know he will love. We will wait until after Christmas to share what he got for that, I dont want to spoil it.
I've been working quite a bit as well. Of course I take all the OT I can get but allows me to still see Will. This last pay check will be so nice because I worked 10+ hours of over time two of the last weeks. My new nick name at work is Reaper. This is due to the fact that I have worked during the last four deaths in the county, it just happened that there were two in three days! I do believe that is a record... Anyway, this weekend will be so nice, we are going to Kansas City for a photo shoot that I won with a lady there. She is a sister to my Grandma and Grandpa's neighbor. Anyway, we will go down on Friday sometime (hopefully I can talk Dennis into getting off work early), spending the morning trying to find Hodge Park and then taking pictures. Then Trenton's party on Saturday night and trick er treating after and Sunday... What a busy weekend!
I will leave you with a picture that Nikki took the other day of all the cousins!!!! After last year with only three kiddos we decided that we would never again attempt to go clear to Topeka to take pictures. Thing of it is these turned out probably better than they could have ever done. So, enjoy, I may post more if Nikki posts more on facebook, just thought I would share this one.
HAPPY 7th BIRTHDAY TRENTON!!!
