Random Photos

The other day Andy asked me why I never update our blog, and I confessed that it's pretty much because I've really been slacking at taking photos of stuff, and didn't really have anything fun to post since Kylee's birthday. However, here are some random things from the last couple of weeks:

This has happened more often than I can count! Skyler kept going down for a nap at around 11-11:30, but then he wouldn't wake up until close to 2 and he'd be overly hungry for lunch. I decided the solution was that I should keep him awake until Noon, feed him lunch, and then let him nap. The first few days I tried it...this was the result. The poor kid just couldn't make it! Now he seems to have the routine down a little better though, and he eats his lunch and then when he's done he tells me "Nigh Night!" because he knows it's naptime. 

This picture will embarrass Andy, but I had to take it! The epitome of white trash! Andy thinks it is super white trash to actually use these mugs the hospital gives you, but I like how much water it holds, and also how easy it is to drink - I mean come on! It has a straw! One morning Skyler got yogurt all over his jammies, so I took them off and went to get him some clothes for the day. While I was gone he helped himself to my mug and started drinking my water. I figure that in Andy's view this is probably about as white trash as you can get! Naked baby with just a diaper - drinking out of the hospital mug. 

One day I was flipping through the photos on my camera and Skyler wanted to see, so I took a picture of him and then showed him himself on the camera. He thought it was pretty funny, and now he always wants to look. 

This happens at night sometimes when he doesn't think it's quite bedtime and we make him go anyway. He throws out his dog, his blankie and his water and then realizes he can't escape with them and starts crying. We always know it has happened because he'll be in there yelling "Oh no! Oh no!" in the most pitifully sad voice ever, like his poor tragic life is ending. However, if we go in there when he does it, he thinks he's getting out and it starts all over again, so we have to just tune him out and then after he falls asleep we go pick up all his stuff and give it back. The other night it was extra sad because when we went in to put the things back in he was huddled up with his little bum in the air and he just looked so lonely!

This is pretty much the only photo I have of Kylee recently. Eating yogurt for breakfast this morning. I really need to take more pictures, but with her gone to school all day, there's just not that much exciting stuff happening in our lives!

Skyler has recently decided that he is a big boy, and he likes to sit at the table to eat. He's actually pretty good at not spilling, and he hasn't fallen off the chair (yet), so we let him sit there sometimes instead of his high chair.

The video below is from about two weeks ago when he first started sitting at the table. I love that you can see his eyes inside the bowl looking around as he slurps his milk super loud, and I love how far out his bottom lip pokes over the bowl at the end. Crazy child!
