colds...

what feel like a hundred mornings ago, the little guy & I woke up with red eyes and shamelessly runny noses. it is like the cold that will never end.

Jasper has enjoyed my weakened state and the resulting slacking of the "no tv" rule. I know the entire opening sequence to "Dinosaur Train" by heart. This morning, I woke up and felt normal...er, so I think we are on the mend! just in time for the weekend! 

Speaking of which, i woke up this morning, SUPER excited that is was Friday, and then I remembered that is was Tuesday, and I got really sad. Then I remembered that it actually was Friday, and I got excited again. Clear sign that this cold is still addling my brain.

by the way, anyone have any secrets for getting little ones to drink water? I don't know if it is the cups I have him using or what, but he just is having none of it. any tips are welcome.

look at that face. don't you just want to kiss it?!?

prepare for an onslaught...

of pictures & cuteness. This guy turned 11 months last Sunday, so we snapped a few pics. I can't believe that he is almost a year old. He said "da-da" for the first time this week, and took his first steps on Saturday. It's been really exciting and heart jerking all at the same time. It's all going too too too fast. I know it's a cliche, but seriously, too fast little guy. I just love you.
